    Hi Guys,

    I am very new to Tacoma World but I think it is awesome to see what other people have done to their Tacoma's and the ideas that they have. I was wondering if I could get some opinions on my truck and some new ideas. I have already done a lot of work to it but I am still not satisfied. I am also looking to take all of the chrome out of my truck. I am a college student, so unfortunately I cannot afford to spend a lot of money. Please, let me know what you guys think. Thank you!

    You might wanna change the name before a mod does by using the thread tools. Usually people recommend to only use the "help" titles for when people are stuck, etc.

    You could plastidip all the chrome black. Some guys make it come out pretty darn good, and its cheap.

    What mods do you have? It looks like some kind of lift.

    I did the plastidipped badges. Turned out great. 7FDE791A-F5A0-496B-8211-D3DE6A2186AF.jpg1020A446-9B78-44F0-A433-DFCCA3F061C8.jpgB584EE8A-5330-404F-A070-17B2C11A168D.jpg

    For real, I'm a high school senior and Im struggling with allowing myself to buy some $170 coils. But I'm also really tight with my money.

    Man, you truck is already so clean!!!!

    You can get color matching covers for those side mirrors.

    And get a color matching grille surround for ~$89.00 from camelback toyota.

    Other that that, I'd just remove the chrome emblems from the truck.

    Makes cleaning it easier and just looks so damn good clean.

    Other than that (budget conscious) Get a couple cans of PlastiDip and go to town on that back bumper!

    Oh and welcome to TW Patrick!

    Good looking truck so far. Maybe some raptor lights in the grille? Lightbar in the lower bumper valence? Ditch lights?

    Or you could go functional with console organizers, glove box organizers, rear view mirror riser, bed cover, or a bed mat.
