    While waitng for my exhaust system from @dirtydeeds , I bought the black chrome toyota tundra exhaust tip. The plan is to paint my tailpipe black to match the tip when all is said and done. My question is "What does everyone think about color filling the toyota emblem red? I was thinking it would be a small touch that sets my truck apart, but not 100% sold on the idea. Also does anyone have any suggestions on how to color fill? I have done it on engravings on guns, but the finishes on them are pretty tough. I would hate to use something on the tip that would damage the finish. TIA, Gregg

    Most on here are going to tell you to do what's going to make you the most happy. I personally wouldn't, I have the same tip and like the way it looks without any modding.

    Very cool idea.

    I think it would look good if it stands out enough to be visible at a distance. If not it might not be worth the time and effort. Btw where did you purchase yours? Considering this to for mine too.
