On the white FJ Cruiser I do not like the look of the silver trim. During the build process I took on the process of blacking out all the silver trim pieces and adding additional black trim and components to the exterior of our Toyota FJ Cruiser. Our goal was to create a black on white look with this new white FJ Cruiser.

Elements that needed to be blacked out where; the grill, mirrors, and door handles. With the replacement of the bumpers with All Pro hardware, the silver end caps did not need to be painted The silver wheels where also replaced with black wheels.

I used Rustolium Textured paint to finish the grill, mirror and door handles.

All the plastic parts where first sanded then an adhesive primer and then finished with the Rustolium paint.

The hood blackout was added by using a large vinyl sticker and adds a great finishing touch.

The bumpers and other trail armor are all painted black which helps finish the black on white trimmed look. Other items that I am still considering for cosmetic changes are the front and rear blinkers with black LED lights.
