    Does your bed have those rails that come with the tacoma? If it does, was it easy mounting the tonneau cover on?

    What brand tonneau cover and where did you get it?

    Thanks! :)

    ;) Thankfully, no.

    Sorry, but I'm not infatuated with the zombie fantasy that seems to be so common these days.

    :spy:

    The tube actually holds spears, er, long steel rods, a.k.a. poles for this. :D

    I Love It! Was the Decepticon Badge custom or did you order it?

    And this is for everybody: If your Tacoma was a Transformer, what would it's name be?

    Mine would be FUZE.

    and hit a curb swerving to avoid getting hit by a drunk after leaving Mardi Gras in galveston after watching some of the riot. Put an inch and half crack on the wheel.

    Color Matched Radiant Red Bumper Lateral

    After putting the last and final dent in my chrome bumper I was glad to have the chance to put the color matched bumper I had always wanted on the truck. After paying a little under 300 for the bumper itself and then more than 300 for the four little plastic pieces that go on top of it and another 300 to have it painted, I decided an extra 80 to have it mounted was well worth my headache. Plus they found that I had dented a mounting bracket too, so they had to install that, which they had handy, and the whole install at the Dealership endorsed Body Shop took about an hour and a half.

    Definitely the priciest Mod I've done to my Truck, and the most expensive mistake (accident), lol....but also the Proudest, totally changes the truck, I love it.

    The Chrome is Gone

    It's actually custom made :)

    Found this random Decepticon metal badge at work stuck on the hood of a car, pulled it off because I figured I'd find something useful to do with it. Took an old "beware of dog" aluminum sign I had laying around, cut it out in the shape of the Toyota logo, stuck the badge to the unfinished side with 3m trim double sided tape, and then put a few small pieces of the same tape in the grill where the emblem goes and just stuck the emblem on. I'd like to paint the aluminum oval satin black though so it blends into the grille a little better.

    Just something I whipped up in about 10 minutes that cost me $0 :D

    Not sure what it's name would be... maybe Ivanna Frontdiff (since it's only a PreRunner, LOL)

    Luckily I did get the wheel and tire warranty when bought truck, went by dealer today. They will have the wheel in tomorrow, getting alignment as well, hopefully speed sensor is okay because it took out my traction control when hit curb and they fixed it for me today but said it might be bad. hit the curb at about 40 mph
