What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yeah 2" or 3"s taller and i would say i am about 14 grand richer!

 

That's the first thing I did too. I don't care for all the badging and stickers.

 

I'm getting between 23 and 25mpg's

 

What set up did you use???

 

Nice! Is that a 30" light bar? If so, what brand and where did you get it installed?

 

It's a 30" CaliRaised with Apex Fab mounts. Bought them on a recent group buy. Had them installed by @Speed Freek (he is independent and does great work) locally in SD North County.

 

Ok, after almost 10 weeks of waiting, I got my Clazzios! It took about 2.5-3 hours for the install. Im very satisfied with the quality and fitment over the factory seats. Well worth the wait! If you're on the fence about these covers, I would recommend!

 

thx!!!!

 

ARB OME BP-51 suspension kit.

 

Like the truck...do you like the BP-51 set up?? I'm thinking on changing mine out for that...where did you get yours and if you don't mind how much??

 

So far I'm really diggin' it. Still need to fine tune it as I left it set from the factory and I think ARB sets it for a truck with a bumper and winch. I went to Tennessee Off-Road and it was just under $4k installed. I stuck with stock UCAs which I believe might have been a mistake. Will probably end up replacing them soon.

 

Hopefully this works. I can install car parts, but uploading a video to YouTube is basic rocketsurgery in my book. Taken with an S7 potato so forgive the quality.

It looks better in person before people have something to say. It's a crisp light, no glare. That's the potato quality of my camera.

El wifey was behind the wheel assisting.

Pretty sweet! I'd like to see it in the day time.

 

I'll try and get a good one tomorrow.

 

OEM + Reference 450Q came in the mail today.

Will do the install tomorrow. Below is some packaging pics. Looks like a solid system with quality components.

 

I picked up my new 2017 4WD Toyota Tacoma on Wednesday and I started customizing it the following day by removing the big bulbous black plastic license plate mount from the front fender, and replacing it with a new custom aluminum 3 pcs mount I designed and machined up out of 6060 T-6 aluminum.

The new bracket moves the license plate up and tucks it in closer to the bumper, and it only weighs 2 ozs more that the stock plastic mount. After I machined the parts for the new bracket I powder coated them semi gloss black.







I’ve ordered up two new polished stainless steel license plate frames which I’ll install when I get the new plates for it, and I really like the looks of this new mounting bracket compared to the stock one.

 

put on SSO Slimline bumper, put OEM grille back on, wired slimline single row LED in.

 

nice work

 

How did you paint the inside of the lights to make the black background, also how much did it cost to insert those LEDs
