What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Recently added 15% ceramic tint front and rear - so much cooler in the sun!

Also removed the TRD Sport badging - I have some flat black badging coming in the mail.

 

Who cares about the tacoma or the gladiator? whats going on with that Nissan?!

 

Love the way those colored lug nuts look with black wheels, would you mind telling where you get them from?
Seen some on the net, but with mixed reviews.

I have long bed envy

 

Do you have any rub issues? Did you put any blocks in the back? What notch did you set it on? Sorry for the barrage of questions, but I have the same lift on the second notch, and I want to do a tire upgrade as well, but I have yet to be able to talk to anyone with the same lift as I have.

 

Tons of members are running the eibach stage 1 kit. Myself included. Im 1st notch with 255/80's. No rubbing.

 

First notch and 1" block in the back zero rubbing and no plastic trimming so far.

 

Delivery day is tomorrow.

 

are they distracting? that would be my concern.

 

So you did nothing else other than the lift? No UCA swap? Do I need a certain offset or do you think I will be fine with the TRD Pro rims?

 

Same question for you. Did you do anything other than the lift? Any UCA swap? Do I need a certain offset or do you think I will be fine with the TRD Pro rims?

 

Still on stock UCA's and im running the TRD pro wheels.

 

I like those but I’m worried about the supplier after reading all the negatives with them.

 

I had white and then changed to the ice blue. Neither color is distracting and the brightness can be adjusted with the small knob on the instrument cluster.

 

back together. And I decided to paint the climate knob rings black while I was at it.

 

There were supply issues last year when these things hit the market. Some units failed but I believe KTJO came good on replacement. It's a cool mod that went nicely with my door pocket illumination.

 

What Nissan? That my friend is a 1978 Datsun 280Z

 

What did I do today to my 3rd gen Tacoma you may ask?

Quite a bit for the mechanical mistress today.

First gave the interior some bling from @TUFSKINZ:

Before:




After:




Secondly, gave her a good wash. The hybrid ceramic wax seems to be holding up fairly well.

Finally, took off the OEM badges.

Before:

After:


As for taking them off, after the wash, I took some Turtle Wax rubbing compound to help remove the "imprint" after getting off all the leftover grunk off. It did a decent job of removing the "imprint." It's not perfect, but it's better looking now.

Now time for some down time.

 

I agree it is an excellent mod. I even looked at buying my own leds and doing the wiring myself. I may give them a chance and hope for the best.
