    6 years ago I owned a 1989 Toyota pickup w/ 22re and 5 speed. Unfortunately had to get rid of her due to life at the time, but now I am the proud owner of a new 2017 Tacoma.

    Looks rad, glad you got rid of the ugly stock wheels and cheezy chrome grill. Good taste. And welcome back. Lift?

    Thanks! I'm to start with just de-badging and taking off the box decals. Then hydro dip the dash trim piece in carbon fibre pattern. As for major stuff going to come down to the old lady at home allowing me to spend the money. Haha. She does want some kind of side step to get in because shes a shorty. Looking for some rock slider/step combo right now.

    Happy wife, happy life. N-Fab has a couple of inexpensive, good-looking steps that the missus could get behind. Do you have a hydro dip setup at home?
