    This is what we have so far anybody have any thoughts I like the idea of black and white just not sure how to go about it since there is quite a lot of Chrome. Open to all types of Suggestions :D thanks.

    Depends how far you want to take it. Most guys start with the easy stuff ( black door handles, mirror caps, and step rail ). I guess depends on budget. Then move to bumper end caps, grill and hood bulge. I did not need these mods so I would say check with Roman the resident toyota guru. Good luck..........

    Welcome bud. You can probably find someone to swap your chrome handles and mirror caps for black ones. Or you can buy new ones, black or white for about $250. Powder coat front bumper ends, less than $100. Badges you can plastidip.

    If that were my truck I would actually probably body color paint all the chrome. Black or the emblems and black wheels.

    I really appreciate all of this great input i'm thinking powder coating and plasti dipping? much cheaper option and honestly I think it would look better.

    Welcome! Panda for the win!! Yeah. Plasti-dipping has the advantages of being reversible and inexpensive, should you decide to go a different direction.

    The storm trooper look is really starting to grow on me. I would do black mirrors, door handles, badges, and wheels. Color matched grill surround, hood bulge, and bumper ends.

    Plasti dipping can last pretty good if done right, but I'm not a huge fan. To me, buying a $45K truck, and spending $10 on plastidip for your badges vs $100 to get OEM black TRD Pro badges doesn't make a lot of sense. But, some people are more money savvy than I am and say spending $100 vs $10 is not a smart investment. It really is a personal decision to make.

    Method wheels are very popular among the crowd and look great and are reasonably priced. Like @aramirez73 said, lots of choices out there.

    As mentioned, wheels are really up to your style and budget. I like Method and Fuel wheels myself when it comes to Tundras.

    Very nice truck man!!!
    I'd either get black running boards or get yours painted, color match door handles and mirrors and bumpers and grill. That'll keep you busy for a bit haha

    Welcome OP. As other have said, lots of little things to start out with to make your truck stand out.

    I may just follow you on this forum and learn Spanish. Something I have always wanted to do.
