    2013 DCEB Super-White Tacoma
    Started at 16 with a stock 2002 4X2 access cab, regular bed, Tundra that I got handed down from my dad with 130, 000 miles. Did some minor off-roading and had a great time with her, had to part when I left for school but left her in good hands. Picture attached

    Tundra Mods
    De-Badged
    Blacked-out grill
    Volant CAI
    Borla cat-back exhaust
    3" Fabtech coil-overs
    16"X8" Moto-Metal MO951 Black
    1st: Nitto Tierra Grapplers (didn't last too long)
    2nd: Hankook Dynapro ATM (co-worker still running these)
    Pioneer Head Unit
    Two 8" alumna pro subs
    Crunch amplifier

    So obviously I learned a little bit from my first project, the car runs great and has made it past 250,000 miles, still being driven by a co-worker so I will see her every day.

    I have been at university in Australia for the past two years, and I can't wait to get home, earn some money, and start up the mods on my new pre-runner.

    I will be commuting to work every day, and I drive on-road 100% of the time, that is what made me go for the sport and pre-runner option.

    I will however be heading towards a little bit of an "off-road look", but keep that loosely in mind because I am going to be striving for the best possible gas mileage at the same time. So some mods like lifting and bigger tires may have to suffer but we will see.

    WISH LIST

    Wheels --> Konig Countersteer Type X Flat Black
    Tires --> maybe BF Goodrich all-terains, or just an oversized road tire
    Exhaust --> Borla #140503 (powdercoat match to wheels)
    Intake --> URD TCAI
    Grill --> Raptor Style Satoshi, "TOYOTA" color matched (insert powder coated)
    BHLM --> looking for help in my area!
    Tint --> 35 on the two front windows
    Antenna --> http://www.brandsport.com/amic-6209w.html
    Hood Struts --> don't know if 2013 model has them? if not REDLINE
    Weathertech Floor Liners --> depending on interior color
    Bilstein 1500's --> looking to level-out, we will see

    Keep in mind this list is hypothetical and subject to change as I learn more about whats best for the truck as well as my-self (and my wallet).

    Pictures of the new Taco will be coming in about a week when I am back from Australia!

    Cheers and thanks for the awesome forum, we are truly lucky to own these awesome trucks!
