Note: it’s not the best deal ever.

 

Aware that these 'mods' are mostly underwhelming but i plan to keep it mostly stock anyways...

The played out (fake as f*ck obviously) TRD Bro grill (sans Raptor lights). Was iffy on this purchase but after a day of testing it out by swerving all over lanes and tailgating haha no warnings about dirty sensor and whatnot, even in last night's rain. I hardly ever use cruise control, let alone radar cruise, so for $130 it was worth it even if the quality was spotty. Had to trim off excess plastic and the stupid garnish doesn't fit in flush all the way, but it works so that's that. A satisfactory upgrade...until it isn't and I revert back to my stock grill.



Thinking of vinyl wrapping the chrome bumper caps to a white that most closely resembles the hue of the truck, but after a few days I am not as bothered by the fake chrome as I thought I'd be. Still if the price is right I would much rather have no chrome anywhere on the truck. The stock taillight redesign is a huge step back from the previous red/white imho, but again not as bothered as I expected after a few days.

 

Huh, that's odd that it did that. Good thing you found it.

 

Yanking? Chimpanzee nuts? What kinda forum did I sign up for? HAHAHAHAHA

 

Priming these massive skids is quite a challenge; flipping them seems to take primer off the edges, probably due to weight + cardboard underneath. I may just say fuck it and start applying bedliner.

My plan:

• bedliner on outside, sides/edges, anything with outside contact
• semi-gloss high performance enamel "inside"

 

Took mine in for 15K service and had two techs comment on how nice my truck was. Felt pretty good about it. Tacomas are AWESOME! IMO

 

I have the same liners. They are nice.

 

What brand fork mount? If they dont want, Id be interested. Thanks!

 

It gave me an excuse to pull the trigger, since I didn't pay "full price" and if my partner asks... I can say I got a good deal.

 

I love this thread on this forum! What its done to my bank account though is something left to be desired.

Lots of things done to my 2017 3rd Gen in the past 2.5 years

 

I mostly listen to railroad frequencies. Wilson County SO, Fire, and EMS are not encrypted.

 

Always lie. I can’t tell you how many guitars I’ve bought for 200$.

 

THOSE WERE YOUR $200 BUYS?!?!?!

 

I used to be able to get away with that for mountain bike parts... but now that she has started biking herself, she knows.

 

Uh, the best and most diverse Tacoma enthusiasts site on the web? Of course that's just my opinion.
Anyway welcome to TW and show us what you got!
Be careful with that!!

 

You do know they just let us think we got away with something?

 

Nice ride Brett!

 

Thanks to google. Now they can just look up names of things we buy. I say, BOYCOTT GOOGLE!!!!!!!!

 

Hahahaha! I wish? Wait, are you my girlfriend, disguised as a forum member!?
