Inferno Thread

I get a little water too but I found with the bed mat it doesn't matter much. Things still stay dry on top of the mat.

 

Welcome to the forum and hottest thread on it.

 

Does anybody have problems With the front seal that comes from under the cover to the bed standing up and not laying down? I just installed an undercover ultra flex but maybe will lay down eventually it's jus been rain and overcast for most of last couple days. Any ideas?

 

These cover seals need to sit in the full sun for as long as a week before they soften up. You can also try a little protectant made for vinyl. That might help soften it too and speed up the process.

 

Aweomse thanks. I figured that's all would be. I know it's warm in Texas but we've had some rain so got instant look at how it does and did pretty good.

 

Yea, if anybody says theirs is 100% waterproof they have a special one. I'm not saying it's not possible but.........

 

Yea I got that. Takes a lot of extra work to get 100% and some luck I guess you could say. Usually gotta check corners and tailgate. But that's why they make boxes to put stuff into

 

10-4 on that.

 

Bein in army I have pelican boxes and contico boxes so not to worried about a little water jus for the security.

 

Yea, I had a cap on my Tundra. It was nice. Always dry. But not a open bed if you need it. I even considered a softopper. Read too many negative reports of the material or windows failing prematurely.

 

Less than a 1,000 miles... Have loved the color since I first saw it when the '16's came out. Had to have it. When I finally took the plunge it was kinda hard finding what I wanted ('17 TRD Sport DCLB 4X4), but there was one in all of northern California my local dealer traded for. Got wheels and tires last week (Ultra Mongoose 17x9 (+12), with Falken's P265/70R17's), and no rubbing with stock. So far only other thing I've done is get the black decal stickers for the tailgate "Tacoma". Originally had thoughts of blacking out the badges and doing an all black grill, but am afraid of it turning into a black and orange pumpkin!

 

Welcome, kingkupal - I just joined this week myself. Your truck looks great!

 

Thanks. Welcome, let's see your rig!

 

Can you just bolt on a 2nd gen bumper?

 

Lord no, they are completely different

 

Hey @qcarr , if I missed you, sorry, Welcome to the Forum and the Inferno Thread! Great choice in color. I'm partial myself. LOL

Hey @kingkupal , I was afraid of that too, the pumpkin thing, but I got over it. Luckily our home team are the Orioles. LOL But if it really starts to bug you, one thing I see a lot of guys doing with the Sport is to remove the black vinyl between the two doors. It really changes the look completely. It's really strange when you see it without. Almost like did it ever really exist. I plan on doing it to mine eventually. Right after I black out my grill and badges LMAO! I'm also adding the blacked out signals on the side view mirrors from @mesojdm. You can't wait to get on that list if you are interested.

 

@gpuccion Said the Pumpkin thing lol and I don't know about that. pumpkins are more on the yellow color, inferno is just flaming.

I'm blacking out the chrome accents too. Chrome does not seem right when you are off the road.

 

Embrace the Black and Inferno, it's a great combo. I'm in the process of blacking out all the chrome I have on mine. Few pics to show it doesn't look too bad with a just the black and orange. All that's left is to dip the Tacoma badges on the door, pull off the V6 on the tailgate, and install the Ultimate Blinkers (only ~10 more people to wait til I'm up) Maybe dip the rims but, that'll be after the winter at this point.

 

I too like the black trim. Going all inferno is just too much orange for me. The black accentuates and highlights the inferno IMO.

Debadged, Pro rims, SR grille, Fire Devil Horns.

 

DOH! That's what happens when you TW at work I guess......

I'm an old bike so I like chrome a lot but I thing this Inferno looks better with black...........and dare I say, Brushed Copper
