What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Oh I was looking into those me but leaning towards the Borla now

 

I wore off some of the powder coat off the top of my bull bar and now need to redo the whole thing. Guess it wasn’t a good idea standing on it. Anyone know of a good paint or method to make it nice and black again. Does not have to be shiny, but no crinkle.

 

Any flat black paint

 

I feel ya. That can be so frustrating because you can influence them NOT to hang out/nest in your vehicle but if it's not mice/rats its equally irritating squirrels, or its god damn possums, or your fucking neighbor crack head, OR...

I lost a vehicle a few years back (not a Tacoma thankfull, hatchback) due to rodent infestation. You can't do too much when you live out in the boonies and all dirt roads; no car port/garage/cover. It takes in all the elements, good and bad :-/

Have not seen any signs yet, but I am constantly checking. Probably look into getting one of those ultrasonic emitters you put in your engine back and hook straight up to battery.

 

I'm not familiar w/ Clazzios, but I went w/ Katzkins. They are pricey but look great to me. I love them & have had many of compliments.

 

We had a rat problem where they would store acorns under the hood of my wife's Honda Pilot & my daughter's Honda Civic, but not my Jeep. We had never seen a rat or mouse away near our home. Luckily they never ate the wire sheathing or hoses. I tried everything including an exterminator. The only thing that finally chased them away was leaving a LED light on under the carport at night. We even tried Irish Spring soap, sticky traps, cayenne pepper, & bucket traps with peanut butter. They seem to rather acorns and soy based insulation. The lights worked for us. Good luck.

 

I have heard they are nice, do you have any pics? I’m going to try to do some of my install tomorrow the rest Saturday when I have time. I’ll post em up when done.

 

Mounted up my Demello Off Road hybrid rock sliders. Still deciding if I want to weld on the bottom brackets or drill through the frame.

 

Sliders look good! Iao Valley State Park?

 

Yes sir, perfect day to install some sliders and take quick dip in the pond!

 

What fender flares are those? They look awesome

 

My problem now is I am worried about wearing 'em down. I already got a surface knick on the driver seat from something (keys, buttons, belt) on my jeans and now I act like an old man gently getting in and out of my seat haha.

 

They do look great. I had them on my ‘08, I loved them.

 

Lmao I totally understand. I will be the same way, I already am with the cloth lol. And I have an almost 2 and almost 4 year old lol. So everyday I’m cringing. But they are great, my almost 4 year old try’s her best. I just try to be careful whenever they have food or drink in the back.

 

I'm going broke just watching your build

 

Katzkins

 

Just the ones I put in on post 124333.

 

Nice. Is that a crack down the side?

 

No. Not being sarcastic. I'm not familiar with all MESO mods. Thanks. I'm happy with the tailights and the chrome accents on the Limited. I know... scary!!!!

 

The chrome stays. It’s the function and brightness that really changes.
