    Bought my MGM TRD OR 4x4 earlier this month in Arizona and drove it back to SoCal.

    I had my first child at the end of February and I needed a family car. So why not a Taco? So far, it's worked out since adding a oem tonneau cover. I bought a OR since I wanted the option of building a overland truck as my son gets older.

    I'll likely be building my own version of a TRD PRO. They had one at the stealership, but they wanted $5k over msrp. Offered them msrp, but was quickly turned down lol

    Current modifications

    Exterior:
    4x4 emblem
    TRD Pro emblem, left out the Pro
    TRD Pro grill
    TRD Pro skid - Powder coated satin black
    Painted rear bumper caps
    OEM tonneau cover
    OEM 5" tube steps
    OEM Rav4 blind spot side mirrors

    Lighting/Electrical:
    Morimoto 2 Stroke LED - Low Beams
    Pop & Lock - Tailgate lock
    TRD Pro head lights
    TRD Pro tail lights
    TRD Pro fog lights
    mesojdm LED mirror turn signal

    Interior:
    TRD Shift knob

    Performance:
    TRD Cold air intake
    TRD Exhaust - to be installed

    Installed my painted bumper caps yesterday and went back today to have it buffed and polished. They were able to get the color match spot on. The computer generated mix was lighter then my truck, they had to darken it up a little. Bumper cap removal is a PITA. Lol

    How much different are TRD Pro headlights than others? Trying to find a night time comparison picture.
