    I had a chrome one but luckily someone backed into me leaving a concert so his insurance bought me a color match and black brush guard!

    Thanks! I like the balance of black and chrome on the truck.

    To add to my OP, those pictures were taken a few seconds apart, with just a few steps to the right to change the angle of the sunlight reflection. Also, in early morning light the paint looks gray, sort of like MGM.

    Just something to think about, there's a thread called Polyurethane Radiator Support Mounts (cab Also) on here and you need to read it. You might want to change the two front radiator bushings out while you have your bumper off. It's worth looking into.

    Your welcome. I have the new bushings but haven't installed them yet. This is a mod you may or may not want to do. But since your bumper is coming off its a good time to maybe look into it and see if it you want too.

    Thanks man. There's still a few things I have planned for it. Getting a 30 in Lightbar installed on the grill guard with a AOB switch this weekend so it's slow progress. Getting a lift with the 2017 tax return after I recover from buying my wife a 2016 Rav 4 haha

    I just found out mine is Pyrite Mica. They said it was Bronze Effect.
    That explains why I like the color so much. But, that depends on the angle.
