Cement Tacos let's see them!

Hey man, welcome to Tacoma World. Yeah, mine is lifted too with zero issues.

 

Love my cement!!!

 

That looks really nice. What lift do you have? I’m looking to lift about 2-3” and improve off road performance.

 

Thanks man! And welcome to Tacoma World. I'm running ICON stage 9 suspension with billet UCA delta joints that gives about 3.5"-3.75" of lift and I have 700# springs up front. It's rated at 0-2.75" but it turns out to be about an inch more with a little bit of preload. I couldn't be happier with the on and off road performance! Some might think it's a little too stiff on the road but I don't get much, if any, body roll and it doesn't dive when you hit the brakes. Off-road the more you hammer on the suspension, the better it performs so It's perfect for me.

 

That honey badger is so nice!

 

Thx. It’s a well built setup.

 

Thanks for the info. This is my first truck. I don't know much about lifts or suspension. I'm considering the ICON Stage 1 or 2. Seems like you've done this a few times.. got any input for me?
Other option: OME 3" lift

 

Does anyone with a cement have a black cap on it? I found a model for sale where the price is right & with my OR black fenders & TRD pro wheels i feel the two tone might look OK. much thanks!

 

I have a confirmed build on a Cement DCLB with Premium and Tech. Coming from 16' Super White and excited for the change. First order of business will be pulling the B pillar vinyl and revealing more of that sexy Cement paint!

 

Found a pic a few days ago of a cement OR with black topper and OEM wheels.

 

Oh man, great choice on the truck but don't make it look like an SR or 2nd gen by stripping the B pilar vinyl off... Ultimately, your truck, your choice!

 

Looks more Silver SM in the photo?

 

It is Silver

 

Just pick up mine a couple weeks ago, wife surprised me with it! I will post some pictures soon. I want to black out the bezel on my front grill as well but was unsure about the TSS since most videos I have seen take the grill off do not have the TSS. I hope this is not too much off topic. I just noticed more blacked out bezels in this thread.

 

Here is the picture of the truck and TSS plug I believe I need to remove.

 

Dude, it’s super easy to remove the grill. It seems intimidating, but it really isn’t. It’s plug ‘n play for the most part.

Read the first part of this thread, it will show you how to remove the grill.

I have black out for the bezel if you want it. I'll sell it cheap (like $5 plus shipping). It's the bezel in this kit. It's held on by double sided tape. https://nox-lux.com/product/2016-2017-tacoma-black-out-kit/

 

Thank man, but I am going to keep the stock emblem since I do not think this emblem will work with the 2018 grill with the TSS

 

You have a black overlay for the chrome bezel on grill? Talking about the chrome ring surrounding the main grill? Didn’t see it in the link just the emblems.
