    not a big fan of chrome either, but though it might match the tacoma lettering on the truck, now i want to paint the letters black and get a black grill.

    Stick on hood scoop from Autozone.
    Paint them black and put them back on. Then paint your badges black. :D

    I'll be an outcast, I like them on the chrome is subtle and is a nice contrast. In my case, though, I have chrome bumpers front and back.

    I don't think you can go wrong either way, they both look good to me. Just an observation though, on first glance it looked like a Ford logo stamped on the caps.
