    Only thing I see wrong is destroying a perfectly good Taco.

    Ghey. I need an a340f :anonymous:


    I'd still like to see how it's gonna turn out. People gave me funny looks when I tried to set my h3 wheels up and now it's one of a kind.

    ALL OF THEM!...Then some more.

    Not quiet sure I see the parallel in you putting on some rims vs taking an entire truck apart for the shell...

    But okay.

    The principle of "retrofitting". Agreed that this is on a much higher scale - and arguably a more dangerous one but I'll be here with the popcorn.

    I wouldn't say dangerous, just stupid. Why take a perfectly good vehicle, that is becoming much harder to find, and destroy it?

    Lol you guys act like a Tacoma is sacred and holy. It's just a truck. It sat it my back yard for months never driven so I might as well do something with it.

    I already had it sitting there taking up space. I'm not wasting my time running all over the country trying to find a rust free junk but in good condition Tacoma when I already have what I want.

    Line-x is some of the better stuff I've came across. I have my fiberglass lined with it.

    I have no experience on a 95-97 bumper but my 95-97 grille is just fine, as well as the bumper fillers I got.

    I'd assume their bumpers are near OEM like you ask.
