    What's up guys! I'm trying to make some money to buy this headunit I've been wanting for a while! Since there are a ton of Tacomas in the 714 area I thought I would offer my professional skills to you guys. I can also go to other areas as well. I can work around your hours and schedule.

    I am great at washing, detailing interior, waxing, clay baring, and restoring headlights like new. I can also do small mods to Tacomas, and I can even take out MOST scratches. Everyone has different needs and wants so PM me if your interested and ill swing by and give you a quote.

    SMALL MODS
    I have a good friend who can give me discounts on LED'S for the interior, white, blue, red and green.
    I personally like the bright white, and blue dome light look
    I can also get LED's for the license plate.
    I can take out your dash & customize your silver rings to any color you would like.
    There is pics of all my work, and things I have done to my own truck.
    I also install all of this myself.

    You'll be amazed by my work

    Im mobile and I can come to you!

    The Prices are for all Trucks- $100 - (Huge 4 door, 8ft bed chevys/fords)
    Tacomas- $85
    SUV'S - $75
    Sedans- $65

    Maybe make a list of the "small mods" you can do so people can see their options, I don't have any mods in mind, but if I saw a list of things I'd be more likely to say "I want this mod"

    Brotha-

    Your thread really hasn't gone down further than 10 posts. Instead of bumping everyday why don't you post some nice pictures to prove you're worth spending $100 on. I'd rather see pictures than 'bumps.'

    I'll help you. What kind of products do you use? What type of clay and polish do you use? Since all OEM paint varies from brand to brand what wax works good with 1st gen and 2nd Tacoma paint? Do Tacomas have hard or soft paint? What kind of buffer do you use...high speed sander or Porter Cable polisher?

    Hahaha yea man, I know. Just trying to make some money where I can ya know? I start off by using Rain X car wash, then I use a leaf blower to dry the truck. I do this because its alot faster and I KNOW I won't scratch the truck. I then wait till it cools down to use Mothers Clay Bar. I first spray on Lucas Oil's spray wax so the bar slides easily. Once that is done I go back over the entire truck with Carnubra paste wax. I then use mothers headlight restore and re-sealer for the headlights. I don't use a buffer, I do all this by hand which is IMHO the best way to do it.

    buffer is the only way to go, but if you don't know how to use it correctly you'll burn through your clear/paint.
