2-Tone Paint Tacoma: Yes or No?

Howsit guys. I'm thinking of converting my 2012' DCLB TRD Sport 4x4 into a 2-tone color scheme like the 3rd generation 4Runner and LandCruiser by swapping out my bumpers and flares with another factory color. I did it on my 06' AC 4x4 and thought it looked really good:

My 06' was silver and black (with partial vinyl wrap)



My current Taco:


I want to do it in either white/silver or white/grey or white/black

What do you guys think would look better?

 

I would say the white/silver.
I have silver/magnetic gray on mine, but the MGM is a little too dark and looks black. I don't like the black for two-tone.
Instead of silver maybe a darker gray but not quite MGM.

Another member on here had white/gold which I really liked.

 

black makes everything look better, just saying

 

Good point b. I was parked next to a MGM yesterday and was thinking it may be too dark as well. The new Silver Sky color is a bit darker than the previous (lighter) silver.

 

No offense yota243 but that looks um terrible. Did you do just the part where your antenna goes as well?

 

But the White with the Silver Sky would look sweet.

 

Yes, especially lower on the body where the road is reflected and makes it even darker. Up on the top parts of the body where it reflects more light I love MGM, which is why I chose it, but I wish I had used something a little lighter.

 

yeah the bottom is bed liner that up top is just platidip, i had some clearcoat bubbling up so i did both sides on the top of the fender to cover the bubbles, to each their own i guess i've gotten more complements on the bedliner than anything else on my truck i would say

 

You have any pics of your Taco showing the 2-tone I could see?

 

Mine is 1st Gen, but it will give you an idea. As you can see the MGM looks almost black. I would pick a lighter color if I had to do it again - something halfway between the silver and MGM.

 

White and silver may be a little too subtle. Here's my white truck with a silver cap. In some light, it almost matches.

 

OP, Your truck looks F$$KING amazing as is. Don't change a thing.

 

this was my 1999 two tone off showroom floor. I miss her. took it all the way to the arctic circle.

 

I voted none. The last two tone vehicles that I thought looked good were the S10s of the 80s up to the 90s.

My Dad had a 1991 S10 2.8 5 speed black silver black that looked awesome

 

Your truck looks so badass just the way it is now, I don't think the two tone would look better.

 

2 tone looks like rape. Sorry. It reminds me of 90's Chevy pickups. Why not get some pinstriping, too?

 

Agreed

 

lol, how do you really feel?

 

2015 Prerunner - hopefully this helps even though I have the Silver and you will have to use your imagination a little

 

Two-tone looks O.K. on certain vehicles...but not a truck. JMO.
