What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks good! So you want to get rid of chrome? Are you going to black out the Toyota grill emblem as well?

OEM Tacoma bed mat

 

Electrician. But that’s why I bought a Toyota - they last!

 

Awesome. I have a set ordered with Dustin due around mid October. Anxiously waiting.

 

That looks nice. Are you happy with the quality, fit, and color match?

 

Ordered tires (BFG AT 265/65-18), brakes (Stoptech 6pot), lug nuts (Kics Leggdura), sway bar brackets (have a new OEM X-Runner sway bar powdercoated red)

 

Ha

 

I take it back, it looks better at night.


Lasers


Everything

 

Yes definitely I have no complaints

 

You can create a thread so people can follow. That's crazy to hear the motor blew. This camry motor struggles to push the Taco IMO.

 

Blue Lamin-x fog light tint



Stopped at a local auto Graphic/tint shop
Who supplies Lamin-x tint for lighting.

Bought a 1’x1’ sheet of Blue Lamin-x, cut it and applied it. Took 10 minutes to prep the fogs(cleaned with rubbing alcohol), cut pattern, apply.

Before and after!




$20 for the sheet

I’ll create a thread this evening. Last I‘ve been told was there a manufacturing defect that essentially caused a huge amount of metal to clog up the ports that control the VVT and ended up causing the engine to blow. It sure makes me miss my old trusty 4.0.

 

I get "why" you would want blue Lamin-x to go with your body color. Unfortunately blue lights are reserved for law enforcement in every state that I know of. They would most certainly cause you a problem in my state. For one thing you wouldn't even pass a vehicle inspection here. Just sayin. Wish you luck with those.

 

They look purple to me.

 

Plus you gotta really wring this motors neck to make it move anywhere. I bet you were at 5k+ rpm when it blew.

 

I'm no expert, but I think this color defeats the purpose of the fog light and would increase glare due to the hue of the light vs. a white or yellow. Form should follow function, not the other way around.

 

Went out to clean my windshield today and i always step up on my door sill to reach the center .. look up and notice the roof molding on drivers side is missing???
... i am kind of OCD with my truck so that is going to bug me
