    I’m new to this forum, this is my taco, got it a few months ago and I can see myself owning this vehicle for as long as it can last. I’ve done simple mods so that it mantains a light off road look. Looking to make it a functional daily driver but with more off road modifications. Tips and advice from the more experienced folks in this thread is more than welcomed.

    Mod list:
    Anzo USA headlights (which don’t work with factory wiring)
    Trd 17 inch wheels
    265/70 r17 toyo open country AT tires
    Bilstein 5100s leveling shock
    1.5 inch wheel spacers
    Trd pro Grille with red Toyota Emblem
    Trd skid plate
    50 inch led light bar
    Predator style side steps
    Toyota OEM roof racks

    Pretty much oem accesories aiming for a simple look

    Nice. I've got a long bed and a Leer 180 top , but it'll look exceedingly similar to yours once I get the Prinsu cab rack on mine. Cool to see the vision I have for my truck is a good one.

    So the wife was jealous of my TRD remote, so I painted hers for her. She loves it. Plasti-Dip Camo Tan!

    Looks perfect bro! I just bought the same truck, planning a similar size lift and was wanting the 275 KO2s until I saw they make the 285 now in "C" load and weigh less than the 275s. Wish the 275 was in C as well

    Plasti-Dip is a rubber paint. I used the spray can.

    See below for the product here called Performix

    I like that! Is is fairly easy to pop off those dash panels or you spray directly after taping it all off?

    They literally pop off by pulling on them. There are a handull of screws behind it once removed for easier painting. Worth it to me to remove them, than to tape it all up.
