Also, going back and forth on BAMF and Pro grill. I feel crazy spending $400 on a grill let alone $600. Not saying the grill is over priced in anyway, custom fab work is an art.

Any input? Maybe someone has had both?

 

I purchased the Pro Grill but after seeing the BAMF....

 

Took off my heavy E rated 10ply 265/65/17 BFG A/Ts and put on some 265/70/17 Hankook Dynapros ATMs 4ply.... Pretty noticeable difference in ride quality. The E load BFGs were pretty sluggish in comparison.

 

Hahah so you regret the Pro. Lol

 

No regrets but dang, for $200 more.....

 

Weekend project all lined up.. Then in for new gears!

 

I didn't take it fully off, that was part of my problem! lol

 

BAMF all the way! No comparison!

 

Anyone have some insight on what would be a good mod for my lowbeams. I want a led kit for its long life span but im very interested in the HID kit for their light distance. Im looking at the Xenon depot HID or the Morimoto HID. Anyone knows which one is the better choice? Also i want the light to match the morimoto led fog lights.

 

Got my Hondo Garage radio knobs installed and have to say these are a huge improvement over the stock ones, not sure whose baby hands those would actually be designed for but even my 8 year old kid couldn't use them without hitting something else on the screen. IMO its a much better alternative to the cheap rubber sleeve around the factory knob others have used. For $25 the Hondo knobs are machined aluminum and built to last for the life of the truck. These are probably my favorite addition since they get used every day.

The low beam lights in this truck are projector type, as such you'll be better served with HID. I went with Morimoto HID from retrofit because of the Phillips bulbs and their superior dual relay wiring harness. Their recommendation kit for this model are 4500k bulbs since there's been some issues with 5500k in Tacoma's. Nothing wrong with Xenondepot but you're up to $199 with Phillips bulbs and a 15% discount. No reason to pay more for less.

Well, someone decided to egg my truck this week.

I had the paint mixed and put in a spray can at a local parts place using the paint code so was easy looks good !

 

This what I got done this morning.

 

Derped! Did not realize it took so many coats, was getting a little worried at first.

 

Bam. That is really nice work.

 

Where do you get the locking doors? Definitely want those.
