    I'm usually the silent type but I have been waiting for quite some time to get my new truck and now that I have it I am proud and also have the urge to make it distinctly mine. I signed on to TW a few weeks ago and have just about finished up my first round of modifications. I got the lift, wheels, steps, and bull bar from the dealer. Now I have changed the grill, blacked out the back bumper, and blacked out all the decals. Just a couple more cosmetics in the next few weeks and then I am done for a while. Of course I'm sure it wont be long till I get the idea to do something else.

    BTW, I am selling my original wheels and grill if anyone is interested check out CL Denver. :)

    Thanks everybody, yeah I like the black on red too. I was worried when I ordered it but I think it turned it out great.

    Pete, I went with the 3" from RedyLift

    Tom, I used Plasti Dip on the bumper just like the emblems. It works great and isn't that hard.

    Welcome. I text you this morning about the wheels and tires. Hope you got them sold. I just didn't want to have to try and sell those wheels. Would have loved the tires though. Great looking truck.

    3" lift. Looks really good. I'm a novice here but I noticed some Tacos with 3" lifts look higher than others. I'm assuming wheel size. I like the way your truck sits. What wheel width did you go with? Did you use spacers? Did you have to do any cutting and is there any rubbing? Thanks for the info!
