Love the attention to detail on the interior of your truck! Good stuff!

Subb'd!


First comment

 

lol too many pics....dope good start

 

Very nice Anthony! I dig the dash lights, well done. You planning on painting any of the interior pieces? And holy light controllers!

 

Thanks I am pretty OCD about clean installs so I really try and take my time with everything I do. Cant stand seeing even a single wire or anything tacky.

What can I say... I'm a picture whore
Once I finish off all the last small things like WO covers, weathertechs, install the CB and my retros with BHLM, and other things like that, then Ill upgrade to a mid travel setup. I'm in no rush right now though. Just taking my time with everything. I think its coming along well though.

I just washed, clayed, polished, waxed, waxed again, and detailed it inside/out and it looks better than the day I bought it! Showroom ready. Except now I know exactly where all my little rock chips are at in the paint but DAM it looks good still. $90 in supplies and 6 hours work well spent!

 

yeah those installs are pretty clean, might need your help installing an amp very soon!

 

nah I try to avoid things like that. I think painted plastic interior panels would be kinda tacky once they fade and wear in certain places. Ill stick with the current layout. Once I add Black Weathertechs and get my Wet Okoles it will completely change the inside enough for me.

And I like lights.... I think I have a problem actually If I could afford it my truck would look like a freakin Christmas tree

 

Anytime man!

Years ago when I started installing I would dred doing amps... now they are like second nature to me. Only installs I complain about is ones that require several hours in the sun/heat (Ill do any install in a garage) and alarms... especially remote start! F* remote starts on newer tacomas! Ill do em but I hate it. Even at over $200 each in labor its still not worth it.

 

Nice truck! Everything is so cleanly installed. Sub'd for future mods

 

Bamf!

 

Thanks!

braaaaaapp!!

 

Lights lights lights!! I like em man! Clean installs are the way to go, im right there with ya. Nice truck too, one thing i still lack is the bed lights so i may lurk some more on your build

 

I cant get enough lights!! lol I love em.

 

and people give me shit for having/working on so many lighting options lmao

 

Haha. I was expecting to get flammed for all my lights but I guess not. I didn't care either way, I think they're sweet

 

WOW! your truck is amazing!! What kind of rims are those black ones?

 

Thanks man :thumbup: they are the ATX Artillery. Actually more of a gunmetal or dark grey color in person. Almost color matched to the truck. Just appear black in the shade or in pictures.

 

nice build anthony
