What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Very good looking truck!

 

That's next on my list of big upgrades lol. I have an SR5 and a harness from here ready to go too.

Yesterday I finally took my factory wheels and tires off. Upgraded to 275/70/17 Falken Wildpeak AT3W on OEM sema wheels.

I also just bought a trd pro shift knob because I thought it would look cool with my sr5 red interior

 

Haha! This reminds me of the time I found a guy I worked with in the parking lot with his entire dash torn apart. He apparently had the habit of wedging his wedding ring between the vanes of the vent while he worked in the field. Until it fell through.

 

Solar on my GFC! Zamp was having a labor day sale, and that discount on top of their B-stock was a great deal on a nice 100W panel made in the USA.

 

Loaded up for this weekend camping trip

How did you change the color?

 

Ive seen a lot of Tacomas like that in the Northern States.

 

You can change the color of vinyls using various brands of coatings. I recently used a couple of products from SEM. First step is a Vinyl prep spray that softens the vinyl surface - spray on, wipe off gently. Then, use the SEM Color Coat aerosol to spray paint (after masking off the area of course). There are many standard colors available of Color Coat. I had a custom color mixed - some of their dealers have the equipment to mix and put that into aerosol cans for you.

 

It's a stock option

 

The TRD air filter is it dry or oiled like a K&N ?, Thanks

 

I provide a full explanation with link in this build thread. THX

Wash and ceramic coat this AM

 

Man I looked all around the floorboard. Guess I’m gonna have to take things apart. I’ve tried to shove a magnetic grabber down there and can’t seem to find where it goes or catch anything. I’m sure I’ll just shake it loose eventually

 

never knew different models had different size calipers. How much were the calipers vs just getting new wheels?

 

I think that is stock on SR5's. Mine came that way.

 

oiled, comes double bagged. seems just like a toyota branded k&n.

 

How did you get the mat so cheap? Used? I'm looking at getting one and that is a great price.
