Big Pimpin' what ya'll think?

This is my 4Runner. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Seriously, what do ya'll think of this? As usual, a larger can of worms than one would expect. Turns out all the plastic clips that hold the molding on can only be purchased from Toyota. $1.10 each for most, $2.50 for the rear flares. There's about 60 of them. That = ouch! The rubber "protectors" that go on top of the wheel flares are $85 bones before tax or shipping. We chose a giant permanent Sharpie marker for $4.00 instead. The paint is a GM semi-gloss. Didn't like the Toyota Matte black. The trim was pretty beat up when I purchased the vehicle so I wanted to re-do it anyway. Fortunately I'm able to trade for the work and supplies.

I'd paint the F&R bumpers black if given the opportunity. It looks good though!

Of course what he REALLY meant was to say black offroad bumpers.

I think tubes would look best with the color scheme. Keep it from looking like two seperate objects (one being the body color, other being the black).

Great job with the black though! I have never seen it look so cleanly done.
 
when i saw "big pimpin" i was expecting something else. but either way I like the look of it so far!
 
thanks, everyone. I agree on the bumpers. First thing I thought when we pulled it out of the garage. Will have to decide on buying aftermarket new ones or paint the factory ones -
