What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Bronze on black looks amazing. I may be biased though...

(not FN Pros I know)

 

Those wheels look familiar...

Black with black makes more black lol

 

Not to beat a dead horse, but l did this. 2" hole saw and about 10 minutes.

Taco looks great!! nicely done!

It was a cold December morning on the cusp of 2020. And just like that, Chrome came back.

 

Now you need to take off the chrome badges, or paint them black. Flat black badges on polished black looks really cool too.

 

I debadged the tailgate (Tacoma, V6, SR5, PreRunner) and what a sob it was to get the old hard foam off the paint. I'm concerned that I won't be able to get the foam off of the doors because they're vertical and the tailgate was off and horizontal allowing the Goo Gone to soak into the foam. I'm going to do the doors anyway but this time I'm going to try a decal remover. It'll suck if it won't work.

 

If you remove the emblems with a hair dryer the foam should still be warm and pliable simply roll it off with your fingers then hit the area with some cleaner wax

 

Rigid SAE DOT Fog lights. Much needed after loosing my fogs on the non-fog option ARB bumper... Highly recommended.

 

I got it on sale for 50. Hated how the pro knob showed so much of the shaft. Some people take apart the shifter, i just drilled out the bottom to make it fit over the nuts you need to shim it.

I personally like my knob showing my shaft. I usually drill till the nuts as well.

 

LMAO!!!

 

It is also wider and thicker, better suited for my hands

 

Covered access cab rear seats with a Mexican serape blanket
** Cause I once saw a 1st gen taco with a serape draped over the rear seats. Vowed that one day, I would have a taco just like ...
** And impromptu picnics out on the trail
** And for forum in-appropriate political reasons that will not be discussed here

Installed First World Fabrication QuickFist bed rail mounts on the head rail
** Then hung up my trusty winter tools



Sprayed WoolWax undercoating on almost every piece of metal that could rust underneath Tacomer (including inside boxed frame rails)
** Not for the faint of heart ... Took a lot of time to coat. At first felt that the results may have not been worth the effort. Now that our roadways are doused with road salt, the effort was TOTALLY WORTH IT!!! Will be doing in the spring and fall from now on.

 

Mmmm. Girthy. So when does the back get linked?

 

have at it, my dude

 

Haha probably not, but it was easy enough to make, thanks

 

thanks, I haven't actually weighed it, but I estimate about 150 pounds or a bit less, based on what went into it

 

Good Morning Mr. Wide! Its great seeing you today!!

 

Today's first shenanigans


Bluetooth model

and holy shit what a difference it made! Sport+ maxed out is hilarious (and useless IMO). $230 at Battle Born Offroad a few weeks ago.

 

Glad you like your setup.

Ran into this guy in Grand Junction last time I was there. what a beast!

 

NICE!
