    Painting things black
    Welcome to TW! :hattip:Get ready for :spending:

    Lots of products and DIY here that will add longevity and good looks to the truck. I used 'Back to Black' on my bed trim pieces, I painted everything else. B to B lasted two years, need to re-do the trim pieces again. Need better pics so everyone can tell you what you absolutely need to do next!
    I recommend the anti-tweeter device or a hose clamp to keep people from steeling your tailgate. ( yes, its a thing ) It looks like you have tires that are taller than stock, a good thing. Non-lifted Tacomas look strange with the tiny factory tires. Good luck with your new Toy, how many miles on it?

    It's just an aftermarket Amazon special. I got it when I bought the fog light enclosures themselves. It came in the wiring kit (that I didn't use). I just pulled it off the wiring kit/relay and wired it into the factory lines that were already there. It required some wiring know-how and a little trial and error to get it right. In fact, it's still only HALF right. The light on the switch is ON when the fogs are off (I think of it as a reminder to myself that I can turn them on when it's lit up).

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017C8HSHK/

    I've only had this truck for a little under two months, so this was one of the first things I knew I had to do. Get actual fog lights running. My old truck spoiled the hell out of me.

    Why?
    Whyyyyyyy
    I didnt even see them!
    Now I cant not look.

    Careful mag, the stereo bug bites hard its like these trucks, once you start.....
    And my dog would kill to have a bench seat.
    I tried to talk a buddy out of his when he had ur exact same truck.

    Also swapped out my led tailgate bar for one of the new ones w/reverse lights.

    Can never have enough backup light with tinted windows.

    Ok I will keep you posted. I’ll post a pic as it starts to fade, and we can see how long it held up for.

    Thanks! I’ll post better pics soon. My garage lighting sucks. It has 121K miles. And yeah I went with a little bit larger tires. I researched here about what larger tire will fit a stock truck.

    Check out Relentless Fabrication for the tailgate reinforcement done right.

    No hating here. That's a good cheaper option. I like that the relentless reinforcement bends over the edge of the tailgate though.
