    I would give up my kidneys before I would give up my BBP scooped hood.

    I don't see what all the hoopla is. I like the clean lines of the non-scooped hood.

    That really looks awesome! Think I might do this on my BBP, but probably get "Toyota" rather than "Tacoma"

    How's the grill holding up at this point? Do you still like it? Rust or any other issues?

    Hood scoops are for manly men and not for anyone else to play with.

    A twin to mine. 2017 BBP SR5 4x4 DCSB.
    So far added a set of Goodyear floor mats and a Toyota OEM bed mat. Lund 5 inch oval nerf bars on order.
    Please post a pic when you get the 275 ko2s installed. I want to replace mine also. The stock tires are way too tame.
    Looks like we have similar tastes.

    Finally made a build and BS page for my 2017 BBP Sport 4x4 to compile all of the photos. All modest updates thus far but still a lot more to do!

    The 2017 SR5 and TRD Off Road both have 16x7 wheels. Not sure about the offsets though.
    The TRD Off Road has P265/70R16 Goodyear Wrangler tires, so pretty safe bet that size would fit.
    The tire size calculator shows these are almost the same 'size' as the 245/75r16s, but with a wider track. So the speedo/odo would be close to dead on.
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/tirecalc
    I had Goodyear Wrangler RT/S 265/70r16s on my 2000 4-runner, but they were slippery when wet, so I wouldn't get those.
    Still debating here.

    Ok thanks, I was considering swapping for off-road wheels as well, so this is definitely food for thought.:popcorn:

    Installed a set of Lund (23884295) 5" Oval Curved Steel Nerf Bars. Love the way they fit. Really sets off the blue.
