What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Damn that so sexy!

 

Drove 1.5hrs to the closest dealer to have the final free maintenance work done. The two most important tasks for them to complete was to disable the door chime and the seatbelt chime.

They got rid of the seatbelt chime but said there was not an option to disable the door chime. I'll do some research on here to see what others are doing to get rid of this thing. Meanwhile, I walked across the lot to look at all of those 2018's...

oh, didn't know they changed the grill on the TRD OR's. UM, still like the pro grill better...anybody got 39K burning a hole in their pocket??? -kirk out


oh, one more thing. totally creeped home doing 65 on the interstate. really stayed off the pedal. got 23.5 mpg

 

Temp hit 70 today in Mass (35 tomorrow) so I finally got my rain guards on and a handful of decals. nothing special compared to build on this page but it is mine. Of course UPS showed up just after dark with my roof rack and I still got tailgate letters and badge inlays left to do. Next warm day (at least a week away for that to happen.) Thanks @rrentrop for selling the decals. Love the way the airbox one worked out. Like I said I gotta go the inlays I got from him too but I dropped the V6 one in the livingroom on the way outside and the cat was chewing on it when I came in so guess I gotta buy a new one just for that part.
rain visors.....

forgot to take pic when done so I just went outside and took a quick one.
matte black decals.....

I did the dash fill ins in cement too.
Work in progress

 

Got my All Pro Apex sliders installed. Bought from a buddy who sold his 14 2nd gen Tacoma (yes they fit) I still need to add the bottom bolts, but I'll finish them up tomorrow.

Crappy night pic, but here ya go:

 

Crap, next step....how much did you pay shipped to you?
Wife will think I’m crazy....think she already knows that.

 

Thanks! Yeah man no problem, it’s the EAG ABS raptor style grille. I did a whole write up on the next page. Check it out for more pics if you want.

 

I bought these off another member on the forum. $200. each shipped from the left coast to the right coast, x5, brand new in the box. I lucked out for sure.

I hear there are dealerships in the great state of Texas though that stock them. You might want to wait though. I hear something new is coming. Heck, even I'm excited.

 

I had some Spidertrax spacers on stock wheels. How do these compare? Looking to get a little wider stance on the new rims.

 

A little before and after. Some 4Runner TRD Pro wheels and 285/70-17 Falken AT3Ws. Much better I couldn’t stand those OR wheels. I’ll probably run these wheels until the end of March when I can hopefully score a set of 17” Matte Black F5s.

 

What do you plan on doing with the OR wheels?

Got this today!!
Has anyone painted the TRD a different color? What did you use, and how, thanks

 

Thanks! Too far away for pickup. Sorry. I have a 1st gen that would LOVE these wheels!!

 

Installed my ditch lights today!

 

how long it take you?

 

Nice! Add those specs! 16s? Looks like factory suspension?

 

Ditch lights in today!

 

With the 285's, did you have to trim and or anything else to get them to fit?

 

No. I’m lifted about 2.5” in the front, 1.5” in the rear and every now and then with the wheel fully locked and in reverse the tire will just barely catch my front mudflap

 

Cleaned her off from the little storm that came through.
