Tacoma Mods: How Much Have You Spent?

So what's the most you've spent on different mods for a single truck?

$300 for my exhaust was the most expensive mod so far. i can justify it though,cause i like the sound so much.(plus it was alot cheaper than a borla or magnaflow system)!! my wife starts giving me the ol "evil eye" when i mention the rest ofthe things i want to do with my truck!!!

Seriously!?!?!? I want one!

I spent just around $500 for Pioneer deck, iPod adapter, tint, DRL Relay, and floor mats (upgrade?).

So far I've pretty much just upgraded my taco in the usual ways. Window tint, floor mats, side steps, and bull bar. Next I've got plans for a new exhaust, but then I'll set my sights on a dvd/nav. After that I'll have to come up with something new, because adding on to my taco is a great way to put off any further commitment with the girlfriend. Just joking....... sort of.

no your right, i just rounded off all of the cost. actually got it for under $700, had to check the reciepts when i got home!. wheels and tire were a little less too. Got the Borla through the off road shop, i try not to do too much on-line with the credit card

i believe its where you take off the handles and fill them in with bodo and all that and then sand and paint it back to normal color.. all said and done you have no handles to open your doors you have to have a remote door opener which will pop open your door a couple of inches when you hit it. im not sure if people take off the badges as well, i guess its a personal preference
