New "old" Tacoma...first Mod?

I have been shopping for a few months for a used truck to replace my 1993 Toyota Pickup 4x4 v6 (my 2 young girls' car seats did not fit in it). Decided to go with this 2005 Tacoma SR5 4x4 double cab. Surprisingly I loved the only manual, double cab, v6, 4x4, and under 20,000$ tacoma that was available under 200 miles away. Anyhow, what should be my first mod? I don't plan to do any real off roading, just looking at either "looks" or better MPG/performance.

 

Personally, I'd black out that bull bar, the chrome just seems out of place on that truck.

 

Nice looking pickup though, I love the color!

 

Thanks, I am going to take that bar off. I have been trying to look around to figure out what kind it is so that i can price it accordingly.
I think i will put that money (if i can sell it) towards a set of billy 1500's to level the front. Or a new head unit with USB port so i can play my music. But looking at the stock set up, it looks like a job.

 

Looks like a bull bar someone made themselves

$25 shipped.

I think i heard a sold?

 

Welcome! Indigo ink FTW! Nice ride. If you don't like the bull bar, take it off. Lift and bigger tires?

 

It would probably cost 50$ to ship. I think i will throw it on craigslist. I think i will level it, probably no lift. And a very modest size tire. I use to have a wrangler with a 6 inch lift and 35's. I was always jealous of the guys with the "slightly aggressive" look, rather then what i was sporting.
