    2019 Cement TRD Off-Road Build Thread

    All emblems are blacked out including the grille emblem. Now I will be ordering the matte black grille bezel to replace the chrome one and the smoked sequential turn signals to finish off my daily driver/weekend warrior build.

    2019 Cement TRD Off-Road Build Thread

    Both sides of the truck are now good as new! My next mods are chrome deletion with black badge overlays, black plasti-dip on the chrome grille bezel, and replacing the front emblem with the original Japanese TEQ emblem. This is the look I'm kind of going for. This is @kingstoyota on IG:
