    Yes. very simple install, unscrew the torx screw on the mirror, remove plastic wire covering, install mirror onto the Bird Dawg riser, push up headliner and slide Bird Dawg riser with the mirror on, tighten allen screw on Bird Dawg riser down. I found it easier to actually have my wife slide the riser on while I held up the headliner. total install was roughly 2 min start to finish... 8 min between photos lol

    I have the OR so now skewp but I could sit and bridge the gap between my hood and the bottom of my mirror with two fingers (roughly 1-1.5" of visibility) now it's easily about triple that. doesn't seem like a lot but being 6'3" it can be a PITA when maneuvering around the city and tight parking lots.

    the Bird Dawg riser is cheap and very effective and allows you to add a mount for a camera, phone, or tablet, AND they ship fast! plus you'd be supporting a fellow Tacoma enthusiast.

    What's the difference on how it rides and accelerates with those heavier tires! Just wondering! They look good, nice ride!

    Initially I felt them a lot rougher than the stock but after driving it all day today I feel to have accustomed to it and it's actually not bad at all. To the acceleration, yes you can feel that it's pulling an extra 64 lbs total but it's not super dramatic in the difference. I am new to trucks and all terrain tires so I might be a bit bias.


    Now the pros, like I've said before is the automatic lift that the increase of aspect ratio causes, the great look of tires, they are very quiet still, and the better performance I'm sure I will get when I take it off roading.

    Maybe you will get lucky. It's not completely trashed. Run it by a reputable body shop and get the estimate. Might not be too expensive and looks like it can be fixed without new sheet metal. We all learn lessons the hard way. As bad as it looks to you it could have been much worse.
