What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

OK, it's been a Good Friday for me.
First, I installed a new skid plate.



Then I iinstalled D-rings in the front of my bed.



And last, I straightened and aligned my step rails. They were on the truck when I bought it and the installers attention to detail wasn't very high.

 

Got a "rice" craving and installed an LED scanner in the hood scoop! Go ahead.......make fun.....I don't give a shit....I LIKE IT!!! LOL


Thanks to these forums though. It made taking apart the hoodscoop a whole lot easier. Drilling out the 3 rivets was scary and a pain in the ass.

 

Finally got my wheels and tires on!

 

What ever floats your boat. If you like it that's all that matters. It's you truck.

 

PICS!

 

New grill on today.....with custom duramax backround

 

Just put on my second coat of filler primer on my Satoshi grill. I can see some imperfections. Hopefully when I paint it black it won't be so noticable

 

Oh yeah! I agree. I see alot of shit on here I would never do to my truck but I give props to the people doing it because it's thier truck. If we didn't do different shit then we'd all be driving the same thing!

 

It scans back n forth and I trid puttin up a video but my DROID records shit in file 3GP? WTF? Won't play on Windows Media Player.

So I put this video up....same thing as mine except mine is green.

how did you get the grille off of the hood scoop insert?

 

you have to drill out 3 rivets. After you get the rivets out and thrown away, you push the back of the plastic scoop back thru the scoop hole...then the grill just pops off with a couple tabs. Then I wrapped electricians tape around 3 short screws and put em up thru the rivet holes so they blend in with the black background behind the LED scanner.

 

That sh-t looks cool but you were behind me I'd think it was a cop or a volunteer fireman. Is that legal in Oregon ? I don't think it would be in Jersey.

 

I was looking at those also cant wait to see them on your truck.

 

I have green neons under my truck and that's fine when i'm driving as long as they aren't blue or red. This scanner is hooked up to a toggle so i only turn it on when parked. I am thinking that any light any color thats "moving" ain't gonna be good. So it's only gonna be on when parked.

 

Just got my new GT Covers seat covers today. No more sippy cup spills ....... or puke for that matter from my 2 year old.

 

when do we get to see them on?

 

You had to do all of that on an 09?

 

RAPR I got white leds under the truck. I usually don't run with them but when I do haven't been stopped. Like you say maybe a different story if they were red or blue. Must be a surprise for some peeps when you turn them on. Probably don't notice them hidden in the scoop when they are off.

 

Just PhotoShopped those onto my own MGM truck 'cause they look so damn good (didn't know they came in grey). They look pretty sweet! Thanks for the good photo, and can't wait to see them on yours!
