    That looks awesome!

    Did you paint over the LED side markers?... I think there is a light on the sides.​

    Yes. They are semi glued on and if you take them off they leave holes where they go though the housing. I painted them lightly on the side marker so the red light still shines through at night but in the day it is white. I wasn't really sure how I would like them but it is one of my favorite things I've done to my truck.

    1-week old 2015 PreRunner LBDC SR package V6 MGM Taco. A minute ago I just finished installing the Camera Source backup camera and PL5400 tailgate lock combo. Only took about 30 minutes. If they would have supplied the factory harness at the actual lock/camera location it would have only taken 5-10 minutes.

    Just sold my 2002 V8 Silver SR5 TRD Off Road Tundra yesterday. Missing a couple of the creature comforts.

    I'll start another thread but feel free to point me to threads for installing extended visors and intermittent wipers. Thinking sad face on both of those.

    Husky liners ordered. Marathon rear seat cover ordered, 8 weeks, yikes.

    Had a 1999 black extended cab TRD PreRunner before the Tundra with the Super Charger. Might need to look at one for the 2015!

    It is my only major mod so far but my lift hands down... Though you could say it was not complete until I put the wheels on the next week.

    Pretty sure the rear suspension is what he meant here... The longer Chevy springs give more flex (thats why he attached a picture of the rear end flexing...) :rolleyes:

    I recant my previous statement, sorta... It's my custom Satoshi grill.

    It adds the most "character" to the truck, I think.

    Only 6 other trucks (that frequent this forum) have "the same grill" (deep Satoshi on a 2012+ Tacoma) as me. And I've never seen one like mine anywhere, personally.

    HomerTaco (made & sold 2, that I know of)
    mine (made 2, sold 1)
