Thanks for getting it, Man!!!

[@Joe-cu4hi]

Your Tundra is 1000% eye candy 😂 and I’m sure plenty of people rubber neck when you drive by! Love your instructional videos, thank you

[@toyotaFANatic81]

🤣🤣🤣 Thanks, Joe! Much appreciated 👊🏾

[@KevinPon.]

Looking good! It's nice and clean man!

[@toyotaFANatic81]

Thanks, Kevin!!! I took a look at your KZbin page. You are WAY ahead of me at 11K subscribers!!! Good work and great channel, Man!!!!

[@KevinPon.]

@@toyotaFANatic81 Haha thanks CJ!! It took me a longggggg time haha. I'm not that much ahead of you. Just gotta keep pumping those videos. I think your video work is better than mine lol. Keep up the good work man! 🍻

[@toyotaFANatic81]

That means a lot, man! I appreciate that. 👍🏾 We'll BOTH keep putting out videos and growing our channels!!

[@CryptoGrims]

All three look good. I would have sprayed them with a black metallic paint or gloss black and then the clear. 3000 light sand n buff. They would have popped out more and given it a more appealing look

[@toyotaFANatic81]

It's funny, I've had some people DMing me on IG and TIKTOK saying that I should have left them chrome, or left them colour-matched, and I shouldn't have bought black handles. To each their own, I guess. Yes, I decided to skip the wet-sanding and paint on the handles this time around.

[@micbravo.]

Personally, for my truck (see profile background), I left the platinum badge and handles chrome, but everything else on my truck is midnight black. Yours looks good with the black/grey scheme. For me, the chrome is a nice balance of contrast.

[@toyotaFANatic81]

The chrome DOES have a nice contrast against the midnight black. You have a good-looking truck!

[@micbravo.]

​@@toyotaFANatic81Thank you brother. Keep up the good/hard work my man. Let's get the puppies super charged 😉

[@toyotaFANatic81]

That's definitely in my plans for the future!!!

[@micbravo.]

@@toyotaFANatic81 same, same 🫡

[@BeardedGuitar]

I went from black handles to color matched on my Tundra...My Tundra looks a lot like yours!! Although I do like certain parts black to offset the gray...I do like the color matched handles better.

[@toyotaFANatic81]

With the color of my truck, I'm 50/50 on the black handles vs the color-matched handles. If I had a red or blue Tundra, I may feel differently. I definitely prefer the black or color-matched handles to chrome handles.

[@rashedsarhadi1803]

Black or color match are both great.

[@toyotaFANatic81]

Yeah! I like them both, too!

[@lakers165]

i personaly like the the chrome better. they all look good tho. sick truck

[@toyotaFANatic81]

Thanks, Man!! 👊🏾

[@Joe-cu4hi]

My 2017 Tundra SR5 5.7L came with black handles and I put the chrome overlay. A few years later I replaced all the badging with black with exception of the iForce 5.7L for some reason it looked good to have a little chrome. I tried to pry off the chrome off the handles put they would not budge. But I’m very pleased with the black and bit of chrome. Long Live the 2nd Gen Tundra 😂

[@toyotaFANatic81]

Long live the 2nd generation for sure!!! 💯. I blacked out my badges, but now I'm thinking of de-badging the truck (along the sides). Chrome does look nice. If I had chrome wheels, I'd probably keep the chrome handle and badges. Since I bought black wheels, I figured the truck looked better with things either blacked-out or color-matched.

[@david.westergard9959]

Looks awesome. I have a 2020 Tundra 1794 edition,, but I’m not sure if I can do this ☝️ because of the push locking mechanism on the handle 🤔. Otherwise I’d already be doing it

[@toyotaFANatic81]

Yeah ... unfortunately, there are a few models of the 2nd generation Tundra where you can't just swap out the door handles. Thanks for visiting the channel!!

[@JoeSchmo-bo4lg]

Im always preferential to 2Tones. Its hard to find anything that black accents doesnt go good with. Have you considered blacking out the fender flares to match the accenting?

[@toyotaFANatic81]

I always say "to each their own." You like two tones, and that's okay. I like the color-matched look, and that's okay. My fender flares were black originally. Since color-matching is my thing, I painted them. Check out the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpisoGZ9rqxqiMksi=x_E-2jdCIm1dQxvQ

[@tarrierfoxy7456]

Did you make a video on what lift you got

[@toyotaFANatic81]

I didn't make a video on the suspension lift alone, but the link below will show you most of the mods, including the Rough Country 6" Lift ... kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqrOn2dqmJanmbMsi=Jpm8Ki0mmVyUC3Du

Nicely done. They look great on the truck!!! 🤜🏻🤛🏾

[@MSPOldGuy]

@@toyotaFANatic81 Thanks , my goal is to delete the chrome grill at some point..

[@toyotaFANatic81]

@@MSPOldGuy That will look GOOOOOOOOD!

[@LVLogisticsLLC]

I have chrome and want to color match. Been wondering how to take it out. Thanks for the info bro. I have a 2016 platinum white color and just got the fender flares like your and will paint it here soon with the door handles. I also wonder how your paints are holding up because I noticed you didn’t scuffed it before paint or wet sand the primer before the color. It’s holding up good ?

[@toyotaFANatic81]

The paint and clear coat are holding up well! It's funny that the paint on the fender flares lasts longer than the paint on the door handles.

[@LVLogisticsLLC]

@@toyotaFANatic81 very nice thank you so much bro. I like your videos and I do learn from it. Thanks again.
