Hey everybody! I'm new to this forum and a proud new 07 taco owner! I've looked through the forums for a while and have seen some pretty interesting and informative stuff! Anyways, my taco is black and i want to black everything out b4 i put a total chaos long travel kit on it (need to save up the dough!) Basically blacked out head lights and black insert grill. I also wanted to paint the chrome trim around the grill black. I don't know if you can buy that piece already painted or do i have to do it myself. Any help on these subjects would be great. Thanks a bunch,

From the title of this thread I though you wanted to push your truck off of a cliff or something :lol:.

Yes, you can get a pre-painted front grille (if you don't want to paint your existing grille surround). The TRD Sport package comes with a color-matched grille surround....I bet your dealer will charge you an arm and a leg for it though.

That's why you don't buy it from the dealer

Anything else I can do to remove one more chrome grille from the world? :lol:
