    I only said it for the joke, I do think the Cement looks good.

    @Minitaco03 are you making any other changes or putting the stock grille and headlights on?

    Until they started to rust likely.
    Fortunately mine came already black so I didn't have to both. But they used black oxide bolts which are already showing surface rust

    A week after new blinker install the passenger side got filled with water already. Hopefully some sealant fixes that.

    I’d prefer it to not get in there in the first place but if it keeps happening I might have to consider that.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Got these in their final spots and fully welded in now, just reassembly time. Gotta finishing wire wheeling the frame and painting. Then I can hang the fuel tank back in place and the exhaust too.

    Black oxide bolts are the devil! lol

    I don't understand how they don't rust... until the second you actually use them for something, then the next day they look like the came from a fucking shipwreck.

    I bought 8 black oxide bolts to plug the rivnuts I used to seal the holes in my roof (removed my roof rack awhile back).

    Within 24 hours they had turned orange. 24. hours. In southern CA during summer.

    Those things rust the minute they leave an indoor climate controlled setting
