    I thought I might as well come over to the other tacoma forum. I've used customtacos for a few years now. Hopefully I can gain some insight from you guys as well.
    I am going to school to get my undergrad currently and am going for optometry.
    I drive a 1999 tacoma dropped with approximately 5/6 drop. QA1 coilovers up front, soon to be 4 link in the back. Truck has recently been turbo'd and is running at 5 psi currently. Wheels are bronze 17x9 rota torque's. Front bumper is from a 1996 4wd, and grille is from a prerunner. I have toyota celica seats on the interior and a blacked out suede interior.

    There wasn't any surprisingly enough, theguy I bought my truck from was an old guy that kept it in the garage. Toyota did give me a free undercoating though. :)
