    Just starting to get things ordered for my Taco. I have had it since Nov '13 and the only thing done to it is I bought a "TRD" 6" tall antena from Ebay....works! I just got the K&N 77series CAI yesterday and the color matched front grille. I plan on attempting the Satoshi project on my stock chrome grille. If I F-it up, no worries.

    I'm ordering the Billstein 5100 Kit from Toytec for a solid 3" lift. Seems like a popular lift and just doing it for looks and mall crawling.

    My dad is a sheetmetal worker and can wel ANYTHING. Gonna help me make some rock sliders. Wont use them for that, but I like the look better than nerf bars... my wife is 5'1".

    Going to Dip all the chrome black and tint the front windows 20%.

    Stereo will probably be 1 10", 2 set of components, and Fat Matt. I have a lot of the stereo stuff left over from my '02 Dakota:(.... Build a mini wall in there with 2 12" L7s

    Possible dual exhaust, but Im unsure of what it will really sound like. Nothing compared to the Dakota V8 with Flomasters.

    A couple of pics of the Tacoma and my stero in Dakota so sh!ts and giggles. Im kicking around the idea of ditching the 60% back seat like i did in the dakota, and getting another 40% seat to have 2 "buckets" in the rear.

    Thanks Zman2k2 for this awesome Sundown 10". Still a few weeks away from building the box and running the wires. Should sound amazing though.

    Got the lift ordered today!! I decided not to mess with the assembly. Let them do it, then I can just put them on.
