    Hi folks! Finally created a user profile after years of following the awesome threads here. Recently moved back to the States (military) and got back in my 05 Tacoma, and VERY anxious to finally get some mods and a lift going.

    We moved North to snow country, so I bit the bullet and purchased a Leer topper (100XR) for the truck. The topper looks great, and so far it's paid for itself since we made the long drive up here. Definitely a purchase I don't regret in the slightest.

    After spending 4 years in "storage" while we were overseas, I've got some fade and peeling on my fender flares and quite a bit of sag in the rear suspension. I'm debating tossing on a coat of plastidip on the fenders to get an idea if I want to order some Bushwacker fenders or just repaint the stock ones. Additionally, I'm tossing around the idea of replacing the rear suspension with a brand new leaf pack, or just bite the bullet and finally add in the 3" lift I've been wanting to install.

    So, of course I've been reading threads over everything concerning my future mods. If there's anyone out there that's had to go through these, I'd gladly listen to some advice. Thanks!
