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

For a lawn that size you need a riding mower! Unless you use an undersized and underpowered mower on purpose to stay outside longer...

 

It’s custom

 

For the Tacoma double cab roof/floor, I used two boxes of Kilmat 80mil. (Each box 18 sq ft)
One box of Noico Red (36 sq ft)

Ordered two more boxes of Kilmat 80mil (2 x 36 sq ft) and whatever i have left over of the Noico Red to do the 4runner.

Both trucks parked outside, ceramic tint all the way around, and the Tacoma is significantly cooler in cabin. Labor intensive mod, that's for sure.

 

Busy weekend. Bilstein lift 2.5 inches new wheels and 285s no rubbing! Installed color matched sport door handles and mirrors. Mirrors were plug and play indicator lights work as well
Also plasti dipped all the badges and installed color matched pop n lock. Before shot included. I was considering buying a new truck but after I saw the current insane prices I decided to spruce up my 2014 instead. 71k for a tacoma trd pro at local dealer lol? you can see the part numbers for what i did here.

Before

 

I'm really curious how the 100+ days are going to be like after doing this. I also have super dark tint all around minus the windshield.

Ive done everything but the floor and I can say the noise reduction alone makes it a "well worth the effort" mod.

Did you apply red noico to the doors as well?

 

I haven't, but since you reminded me, i just may do it tomorrow. Agree on the noise reduction. Sound system is sounding better than ever.

 

Installed some HD leafs.

 

Yup, can't wait to have it all finished. I ordered more red just in case.

 

I also noticed a difference after installing Noico to the roof, especially driving in the rain.

 

Same same.

 

Is it stiffer and stronger than the plastic? Also just replaces original panel correct? No drilling or anything as I will about to order as well. Looks awesome.

 

That looks really nice! That lift is just about the perfect amount IMHO.

 

I paid the higher price for an OEM one. I wanted to fix it and forget it for another 10 years. Plus - did not know for sure if the cheap one would be noisier. Good luck with your project.

 

Yes, being aluminum it is much stiffer than the flimsy plastic. It is a direct fit with no drilling needed. Slides right in and factory hardware is used. I installed all the hardware loosely so I could adjust the panel to perfection before tightening down the hardware.

 

Where did you get the mirrors? I like the signals on them. No additional wiring was required to power the signal?

 

I did nothing to it except drive around after going to the airsoft swap meet yesterday. The swap meet was lame, hardly anybody there so I took the truck on an extended drive home.
I think I'll do some more "exploring" later today.

 

I had one in my Nissan 370 and it worked perfectly

 

Looks like the "post project" meal project turned out well.

 

“Because fuck you” I love it!!

 

One day! One day damnit!!
