What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Same. I had too many dings to count on my 07 when I didn't have sliders. Zero so far on my 2013 with sliders 5 years and counting. *knock on wood*

 

I have been considering buying sliders just for this. I dont plan on doing any offroading any time soon but park in a parking garage daily. I always check my doors after work for dings.

 

Took her to the stealership for some fluids. The only good thing about that is the free wash. One less thing I have to do on my day off...

 

I used regular Automotive Touchup Paint in a rattle can Primer, base coat, clear no problem yet. The cover is not over a direct source of heat like a exhaust manifold and it is not touch anything but the intake manifold. the cover has some insulation on the under side.

 

Thanks. They are the same wheels as the Texas edition, but here in Arkansas it's a TSS.

I do not think they were rusty since it only has 36k miles and from living in Arkansas. I can take better pictures tonight.

Thank you.

 

Yeah, great post and research. Wish I read that before purchasing the silverstars. For now, I have 4 stock bulbs, so easier to go OEM.
Not going to worry about it until I'm down to my last stock bulbs. My LED fogs put out a ton of light anyway.

 

I like the look. I did my whole front in MGM stoneguard and it's great for rock hits. Never thought about the lower side panels, but that's a great idea.

 

Installed some 5160’s on lunch break

 

wish mine still looked this shiny and new

 

Time to polish and wax.

 

I did polish, still dull as heck and some of it wouldn't come off. I was told to use nu finish as anything else would remove any possible protective coating. but boy is it tempting to remove and use high grit sand paper and some sort of clear coat then maybe a clear vinyl on top. I protect them from the elements every winter but that didn't stop them from getting brown/red/and crusty

 

I just moved up here from So Cal and this was an exploring drive. I am going to go back and do some fishing !

 

TSS is a Gulf States Toyota Distributor thing, so it is like the Texas Addition. GST consist of five states, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and Texas. Just like here in Florida, we are a part of Southeast Toyota, which is Florida, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. We have the XSP, XSP-X and XP.

 

Even if they are a little rusty, you could wire brush them and rattle can um. IDK why I like the tacos without center caps so much, but i do!

 

Yeah I got the idea with no center caps since I think they stick out a lot, and it would give it a different look.

 

Greetings. New to the forum and from P-town. Where did you obtain the re-usuable filter and which brand?

 

I wonder if they have one for shower pump?

 

Moving day. Truck and trailer all loaded up. California to Newport News, Virginia. Movers packed up the house earlier this week.

 

Changing fluids is what I like doing on my day off

 

Me too! I change beer into water. rinse and repeat.
