    I glued bolts on the back of each letters and bolted them through the grill. I also used 3M tape. However, some of the bolts have come off so the tape is the main thing holding them on now. Trust me, that tape is freaking strong. It would take a big intentional force to take em off.

    I think I used the 3m super strength molding tape when I added my Landcruiser emblem to my HomerTaco mesh grille... Hasn't moved in close to a year! GF said she used some of it to hang some cutout letters in her daughter's room and it took the drywall off when they tried to remove them haha!

    OK, it sounds like this stuff is the bomb then. The only experience I've had with tape was on some in-channel vent visors and that only stuck for a couple years.

    Make sure you get the Super strong kind. They have different strengths for different uses.

    Yep! People want them. I stored mine from my '08 for years and decided I was sick of it taking up space. Sold it on my local classified site for $75.

    Well i was running a rca wire to the back from my deck, and whilst i had my glove box out, i noticed the dumbasses at the dealership never snapped the air filter cover shut . Its so simplistic yet they fail to remember to do it. I hate all dealerships. The first dealer i took it to left my oil cap off.

    ^^^^This. I also have worked numerous accidents this year alone during which proper use of a seatbelt would have saved lives but what do we know we see this shit everyday.

    Very nice! I just ordered a set of these wheels in matte gunmetal. What size tires you running and do you have a leveling or lift?

    That truck looks so nice.

    Yeah my neighbor came over and said he was surprised how quickly I can "spiffy" the taco.

    That was with ten million bugs on the front end and windshield from last weekends road trip also.

    Dynatrac ProRock 60 Rear Axle, that is important enough.
    Installed the Prinsu Cabrac this weekend. Now just waiting for the 30" Heretic lightbar to show up on 4/13 and will install that this coming weekend. Yes it has a 40" cutout fairing on it as I got sent that on accident instead of a 30".
