    I just got my TRD Grill in and was wondering, has anyone every had the bull nose painted 202 Black (to match the rest of the grill) on a Blue Ribbon Metallic, or any other color besides black or white?
    I can visualize it, and one way I think it would look good, but don't want to down grade the Truck. I plan on Blacking out the badges and go with the smoke lights, or maybe TRD. Anyways any thoughts or pics would be helpful


    Thanks!

    Have thought of doing that on my 02 Tundra SR5. Had a deer issue so the grill was replaced, original has a small chip in the chrome....one day I'll black it out to see how it looks.

    I'd personally get it color matched to your truck. Much more of a classy look than blacking it out. I'm ordering the white TRD grill and hood bulge for my truck and then getting the "TOYOTA" lettering in the grill painted white as well.

    I think that blacking it out on the BRM would make it look like a SR model instead of a SR5 or Limited/Platinum model. I color matched mine and it looks awesome.

    Yeh I think your right. The more I think about it, and after seeing yours I like the look a lot better. What do you think on Bushwacker Flares? Paint or no paint?

    Depends on the rest of your truck and the look you are going for but for some, they are fine just the way they come unpainted.

    I have seen a couple members with the Blues with the painted Pocket Flares and really like the look. I think I'll take it all in and have it all color matched.

    Hey all thanks for your input! It does help to get a second opinion, I appreciate it!

    Make sure to give the body shop your gas lid so they can really match the paint. What you cant see in mine is that the lower grill surround was a little darker as I just gave them the paint code. The upper was ordered from Toyota in that color already

    Thanks, the shop I'm taking it to is a Toyota body shop, but I'll make sure they match.

    The rack on the front end is driving me crazy. Need to level it out been looking at all the kits little lost . Loooking for suggestions.
    The other thing is rigid has a conversion kit for the foglights along with a light bar for the lower grill. As you know gotta do it under the wire so my wifey doesn't suspect anything.
    I see you did the trd swaybar have you noticed a real difference?

    Yes it does. I kept throwing my girlfriend back and forth in the other Tundra so I put that on and solve that problem. When I bought the New one I put them on it.
