    I'm assuming the inside. To shave it.

    I had it done on my s10...it looked good on s10s, but they werent really a truck..lol. I dont think it would look good on tacomas!

    I think lowered base Tacomas look good. I wish there were more 2nd gen Tacomas bagged actually. I also think shaving the tailgate handle would look good on a lowered Tacoma.

    Nah it wasn't, my old lowered street toyota also had removable hardtop along with all those others. lol. They're appropriate (to a point) for lowered street & the ones you mentioned were appropriate for off road. A buddy of mine was jealous of my convertible so he one up'd it by doing homemade T-tops and custom front spoiler on his. Talk about leaky leaky overkilled hi lux, lol.
