My 1st Mods

This weekend I decided to have some fun... I did my first mods on my taco. I posted before and afters. Posting this for feedback.

Painting chrome grille to color match and homemade a satoshi
Line-x on lower front bumper
Painting rear chrome bumper to color match
Tail light tint

Its a start, but I ran out of weekend!

 

Pretty damn good for your first mods

 

Thanks man! Nothing a little patience and cold beer couldn't handle

 

What did you make the satoshi out of? Looks way nice!! Did you use a write up for the satoshi on here?

 

I didn't plan on making the satoshi this weekend, but while I had the grille out painting it I decided to go ahead. I looked everywhere for mesh I could get the same day and finally I found my prize at... Home Depot. They had this mesh in their building supply area for $6.99 for an 8ft sheet. Dont let the price fool you, this shit is sturdy and for that price I could afford to replace it down the road if needed. I did follow the write-ups on here. Without TW this weekend would have been much harder!

 

did you put the TRD sport decals on the bedsides?

 

The guy I bought it from had them put on...

 

oh, ok, because it threw me off a little bit lol

 

Looks hella good man! Satoshi is my next "free weekend" project. Did you keep those horns in place?

 

Looks good man. Indigo Ink FTW!

 

No I moved them to the two free bolt holes on the fender next to the battery. I saw a TW write up where the guy did this and it worked nicely.

 

Looks good.

 

Looks like a completely different truck! Looks great!

 

Thanks! Next free weekend will be the BHLM! I waited a while to do this because I knew once I started it would be an every weekend thing!

 

how did you paint your rear bumper? 1.did you keep it on the truck or take it off? 2. did you sand the chrome on the bumper before painting?

 

I took it off the truck. I took everything off of it so I didn't have to tape anything up. After I had all the plastic off I sand blasted it. Cleaned it up and primed it. It was the easier part of the weekend.

 

Did the yellow fog light mod and color matched head light mod!

 

Looks really good man! Should paint your wheels! I think itd look good.

Where did you buy the paint?

 

Where did you get the paint from?

 

I have thought about painting the wheels but I cant decide if I should just sell them and go for aftermarket. I do want some black wheels though. My dad owns a body shop so I got him to mix me up some paint and clear coat. I followed a write up on here for the head light mod and it worked perfectly!
