    I put some adhesive Velcro in the door card pull pockets so the little felt liners would stay put.

    I work in aviation maintenance. We throw these yellow metal valve caps away each tire change. Repurpose on the taco and adds a little color. Price... FREE-99!

    They’re great caps too! I’ve thought they’d look good with the retro Toyota stripe colors painted on them.

    Yes. I saw those badges (TW coin) advertised on TW and thought I’d get one.

    Yep that's why I went the DIY route, the caps I felt were way overpriced for what they are.

    As an update the bumpers still look great

    Cheap tailgate cover I got off of Amazon for $30 on the last Prime day. Not an exact fit, but good enough for me. I like it. I'm always banging tanks and other stuff on the tailgate when loading/unloading, so this quiets it down significantly.
