    Not yet but definitely want to add a windoor on the drivers side(cant see driver's side and don't want to block view out passenger side) with a utility panel for hanging loose items like cords, rope, etc. not shelving though. I imagine with sufficient effort you could certainly make something to do just want you want, lots of ways to go about it. My thought was to back up the Thule tracks on the roof with O-track inside and use that and the bed rail track as upper/lower mounts.

    Looks like a cab-high, their original style they still make. Their website has pics of all the models.

    I've got this exact same shell

    They're the older ones (made through 2005-2009 I think) with their older lock style, I'm pretty sure they don't make them with the same lock on the rear window anymore, which is a bummer because it's way better than the lock on the new ones

    Sweet and great looking truck you got there. The original owner did purchase this brand new with truck back in 07. While i like the one piece glass of the newer models, i still prefer this older style as well.

    How are you liking that cap? I've went to the dealer and really liked the look but I've been waiting to pull the trigger.

    I have a Snug top sports mans addition, just means it has a reinforced roof (500lbs), rack, side opening windows and sliding rear window that is removable. I have had it for over 2 years now and it has served me well on many a trip.

    Its made by fabfour. Nothing fancy but it works well and I have a table that goes on the swing out for cooking. The thing I like about it is that in about 5 minutes I can take it off. It sits in the garage unless I am on a trip. The big swing out is a pain in the ass for everyday living. Love it for camping but not around town. For the money I had to spend at the time it was what I could afford. I have had it for almost 5 years on 2 trucks.20190102_173822.jpg

    Hey man I really like your truck. I'm looking into buying a used 2015 tacoma in the next few days. I noticed that your fender flares look different from the typical ones the stock 2nd gen Tacomas come with.

    Are those after market?

    I apologize.. I'm pretty new to the scene, and I don't exactly know the ropes around here yet.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the info.

    How did you find out to do that? Was there another thread or video that kind of gave you guidelines in doing so?

    Not really. Just make the line and cut with a jig saw. For the metal fenders I used an angle grinder

    Looks good! I considered the CX Revo but went with the standard CX instead. What was the price if you don’t mind me asking?
