To start I bought my truck in November 2015 from Scottsdale Toyota. I was in the market for a second gen tacoma either in white, black, and or gun metal grey. I called and drove around the valley for weeks looking for "THE ONE". After almost giving up and going with a new ford or silverado. I had a random call from a guy at Scottsdale Toyota saying "I have your new truck, it just came in". Apparently someone bought my truck and put 15k miles on it and seen the new 3rd gens hit the market so they traded it back in.

So first thing first was to ditch all emblems, black out the windows with 5% all around, get rid of that ugly antenna and went with a shorty, and then of course throw a 32 in light bar in the lower valance.


Next I had Alex Trujillo over at Rogue Retrofit black out my tail lights, build me a set of projectors, and we blacked out a light bar to see how it works. Didn't work all that well lol


Then I got tired of looking at the stock height.

Off to get the tires mounted and balanced


Well folks thats all the time we have for today. Thanks for looking and hope you like! If you see me rolling around AZ throw a wave!

 

Very nice, awesome transformation thus far!

 

Thank you. Long time comming and its not done. I dont think it ever will be lol

 

Love a '15 TRD Sport good looking truck

 

Thanks sir! Best truck I've owned so far.

 

Love the all black the truck is really sharp. I traded a '13 SR5 for the 15 TRD Sport and love it. I've always been a little jealous of how much lift the Prerunners can get with spindels and stuff. Hell I had to do almost a whole new supension to get 3"

 

I love black too just stinks living in Arizona with all the blowing dust. Clean one day dirty the next. Never ending battle lol. I was suprised how much my spindle lift took the truck up. I used to own a ranger with similar set up that sat way lower.

 

One of the things I like about the white it doesn't show dust or scratches much

 

The mrs. wants a 4 runner with a similar set up but in white. Dodged a bullet, thank god.

 

Ooh the new 4 Runners in white are really good looking. Don't get me wrong when black is all clean and shiny it's beautiful. The clean white and black is really something also. where you live the white should be cooler also

 

Black is perfect when it’s all cleaned up. That would be the only thing I would change on my truck if I could. White truck for sure due to the heat down here. My next tacoma will be white for sure

 

I like the black that's a sharp looking truck

 

the all black look is a hit or miss, this is definitely looks really nice and is a proper setup

 

Thank you sir!
