    Greetings,

    For a long while I've been cruising the forum reading build threads and with the 3rd Gen the disaster threads hoping to learn as much as possible about this vehicle so that if/when disaster strikes I'm as prepared as possible.

    Got my Taco back in August and have tons of plans for a part time Overland-Lite build, I can't get too crazy with my daily driver....

    Look forward to the additional perks of being a member!

    Welcome to TW! No need to get too crazy, these trucks are extremely capable, especially the Off Road model you have.

    Welcome! An easy, quick, and cheap mod for those wheels is black past-dip. 4 coats of black + 2 coats of glossifier. It completely changes the look of the truck. Like so:

    I dunno about the wheels right now, I kinda like them... however, those badges and that grill are going to be dipped for sure.

    Anyone dipped the fender flares to keep them from graying?
