That looks killer. Do the amber circles in the headlights stay on like a daytime running light?

Make sure to post up some pics once that bad boy is installed. Been eye balling that bumper for a while.

Sure will, I'll have to trim my fiberglass down a little bit since I bought the stock width bumper

That’s awesome. Could you post a link to the headlights?

Hey guys! New here with my first post! I just got a 2023 Off-road a month or two ago and overall I'm pretty stoked about it. Figured I'd toss my truck in the mix here with what I've done so far.

1) OEM TRD Pro Grill (I know, I know, cut me some slack)
2) TRD Pro skid plate
3) OEM TRD Pro tail lights (I didn't like the chrome on the stock ones)
4) MillerCat shield
5) Method 305NV Double Black
6) Screen Protech on all screens inside
7) Seat Jackers (I like them, I know some people don't but they improve the seat position a lot for me)
8) 20% tint all around
9) Mud flaps from Amazon lol (they were pretty cheap and work great so far, no complaints)
10) Keyless entry installed by the dealership (it's great when I go surfing, I can turn off the RF on the key fob and lock everything inside the cab)
11) Bak Revolver x4s tonneau cover (I like it, I heard some folks have problems with installation but mine went smoothly)
12) Ottocast Apple Car play adapter (allows me to use apple car play wirelessly, I've had good connection so far, no complaints at all)
13) Rough Country Neoprene seat covers (I want to protect the leather lol)

I think that's pretty much it so far. Obviously I have low miles so far but if anyone has questions about any of those I'm happy to give my limited experience with them!

Any problems w/TSS? (The Pro grille)

ianimal · Jul 1, 2023

@Cement_wheels
No issues whatsoever. Of note, the grill itself is the OEM one (as I needed it to fit my front camera). The TSS sensor is aftermarket (I did not want to pay $700 for the OEM one). I have heard some folks had issues with the TSS sensor after install. Most attribute this to the angle of the sensor changing from the stock configuration. I was prepared to insert washers underneath in case I had this issue but never needed to. I might not be the best example of this as I installed the grill with less than 100 miles on the truck (I am prepared for "1st truck mod memes on this), so the computer system may have never been able to "adjust" to the stock configuration. It likely treats my stock configuration as the current one with the Pro grill as it was never able to learn on the stock TRD off-road config. Hope that helps

Not done yet but it was a good start.

At it again, I don't submit well to peer-pressure and had an itch for using power tools today.
2.5" pipe with stock muffler, not much difference in sound. Which I like.
Runs better. sounds more open and free. shifts smoother (or in my head?)?

OEM. Off of a Trail hunter. SR and SR5 also have the same look.

Mine currently looks like this;

They can take abuse, more than most are comfortable. paint scratches in shipping is common place so it should be expected.

Edit: just saw your other post that you realized its overkill for your intentions. Ok expedition has aluminum skid plates in the same style as the RCI plates if you are still looking for something of that sort. But sounds like the TrD pro skidplate imight be more what you are looking for

Finally got her off road. It was a day of firsts:

- First time seeing dirt
- First time using 4x4 high
- First trail pinstripes
- First time plinking in a new state (Lived in California until Jan. '22)
- First time hanging out with another member of TacomaWorld (@bonnfabrication , had a blast today. Thanks for the invite! )

and I will say, the truck looks better dirty (still needs a name though)
