Tacoma fixin' as a gift

Hey guys,
My boyfriend and i are having a anniversary coming up and i've gotten a few of his good friends while he's away for work to help me fix up his baby.

We're not doing too hugfe of things just here and there's to help the truck and make it look a little less run down.

so far we have:
-sea foam
-flat black chrome bumper parts
-fire fighter decals/plates
-interior painting
-detailed inside and out
-changed oil/ new filter
-currently sanding rims to paint flat black
-back2black exterior but now decided to paint black also
-fixed plate lights
-cleaned headlights
-fixed blinker

need to do:
-new rear speakers
-maybe tinting.. moving to CA and have everything except driver/passenger windows tinted and CA requires 75%
-some clutch work


do you guys have anymore suggestions? i want it to be love at first sight all over again with his truck. any mods that you can do that are CA okay and any tips for us drivin across country with our Taco

 

Black truck?

Tint the glass.

 

The stuff you mentioned are all awesome things! Your a great girlfriend!

 

He's a lucky guy.

 

I don't want to sound like a jerk, but you may want to make sure he'd be okay with you doing all this stuff. I understand its really the thought that counts -- and it looks like you've REALLY put a lot of thought into this. But my truck is my personal toy, and I don't let people work on it unless I'm there. My brother's the same way as me with his toys. I know we'd both think the work was really sweet, but would feel so much better being consulted by our girlfriends first.

Wow, that's so awesome! Sounds like he has an amazing girlfriend and some great friends, he must be a good guy

 

"Gender: Male"

 

well he has told me he's wanted all of these things done so i kept a mental note and things he told his friends. He hasn't had time to do any of these things and thats why im not doing anything major.

 

Its white. I'll try to post some pics up but my internet is horrible with uploads.
butt its white and has black accents and inside upholestry is that blue gray.

 

it has some tint on the back and extended cab windows. im tempted to try to get that 4" tint on the front off and do i light tint on the front. i heard thats a good trick for CA cops.

 

also.. he is on his way to being a firefighter, anyone know where to get nongay firefighter accesories, i want two shifter knobs if not just some cool black ones from online. ive been looking for firefighter but only these weird flame wannabe accessories show up

 

Awesome, sounds like you've got it all set.
