Inferno Thread

its the $32.99 one at the bottom in our products discussed

I love that the sides can zip up to protect the doors and keep them in. and that its a hammock style

 

I seen that- I definitely like that part!!!

 

I was out mowing the yard and came around the house-to see this- Just love this truck and that Color!!!

 

Did someone leave you a gift? or is it yours already? LOL

 

No-no.
That's all mine!!!!!
I have my better half move it from the back of the house to the front.... Way away from the mower!!

 

It is actually the JTP aftermarket grill:

I went back and forth on buying the OEM version forever (I generally never buy anything aftermarket) but I ultimately decided that I didn't think the OEM PRO grille looked $350 better than the stock off-road grille. I DO think it looks $135 better though so I pulled the trigger on the JLT version.

There are quite a few good-looking aftermarket PRO grills out there but what I like about the JLT version is that the 'TOYOTA' letters come as one piece that simply screws right onto the surround. If you read reviews of the other knock offs, often times the letters have to be glued/taped on one by one on to the grille (possibility of not getting them perfectly straight which would drive me crazy) AND another common issue is if you look closely at the grilles that come with individual letters, often times a couple of them won't have the letter border painted black which makes those letters look out of place until you bust out the plasti-dip or paint pen and touch them up. The JTP doesn't have either of those issues which is why I went with that version.

I will say that when I received the packaging the 'Y' had fallen off and I had to glue it back into the surround with plastic-bonding epoxy. An easy fix but I am skeptical as to how long it will take other letters to fall off. If you look at the backside of the grill the way they are attached looks a little suspect. The letters do feel like they are on there tight if you try to jiggle them but if you have the money to blow and don't want to have to worry about buying another grill down the road because you lost your letters driving on the freeway (or on the trail), I would suggest ponying up for the OEM... I kind of wish I would have but maybe I'll get lucky - Just my $0.02

 

Great pic!!!! I agree!

 

Pic cause why not..

Alright guys, so I may have lucked up and found someone willing to even trade me for a skewp hood! All you sport guys out there, does your skewp leak??
I don’t want to trade for a future problem

 

Leak? It lets a little water in on top of the engine cover but nothing to worry about...literally just a few drops here and there...take the trade...you won’t regret it! Hey

 

Awesome! Doin it! As long as he still wants to

 

Leak how? Where? Into the engine bay? Who cares.

 

I’m getting mine done Thursday morning along with the AC blower motor repair done. Looking forward to seeing how it drives as how it drives now hasn’t bothered me much for the past 20k Miles. I did use ETC PWR for about 6 months straight but MPG was going down so I turned it off and have been driving without for some time now and it drives pretty good (8/10 scale).

 

Can never get tired of the beauty of the color inferno. Hit 15k miles yesterday after 15 months and still turn around evertime to look at my boy as I walk away. RIP inferno but damn glad I got one when I did.

 

Rip...are they discontinuing the color?

 

Yes. That's the word.

 

Yeah, the 2019 Toyota website is up and blazing blue pearl and inferno are not listed as Tacoma colors.

Well that looks fantastic!
