my build done (for now)

traded this for my down payment on my truck


now I'm $20200 in debt with a 08 taco 50k miles on it and in real good condition.
First day Home



first thing I did was put in a 10" rockford fosgate and a pioneer stereo with ipod controls. I made my sub box to fit where I can open up my seats half way to get to them.


Put on a bull bar


then made some decals at work



put 3" spacers in front and 1" in back


Painted my wheels black


did satoshi mod

the grill mesh didnt come in yet so i used rabbit cage wire

then got the mesh and put some hella 500's behind it



started running out of money so I did the budget mods
fog lights on with a oem switch and DTRL

debadged it too. I actually planned to paint them black and even took them off and painted them but liked it better off.

and made a new decal recently. Its not turned sideways its just how it uploaded. I had this on my celica too.



Then I got a new mini taco to match the big one
hahaha

bought painted doorhandles then painted my mirrors and brackets


debadged my truck again even the trd decals

and put hellas on bullbar - will post a pic in couple days when I put my mirrors on, if I had a little extra paint I was going to color match the inside of my satoshi and leave the outside chrome. Ill think about it next paycheck
//////////////////
Now in 2015 my build is done
I'm not going to go up to 285's I think they'll slow out down to much. Ive got flowmaster super 44 dual exhaust and 265 75 16 cooper st's




also a Yakima mount with snowboard locking mount and xd hoss wheels.

 

Nice truck buddy, I'm not big on red, but I really like the look of yours so far. Definitely a good purchase.

 

What guide did you use for the fog light on with oem switch?

 

whats the mini taco lol?

 

Well I was looking for a white or black, but never found good enough deal for me, so I took this but now I think I like it better each day

 

its just photoshop, but I wish i had one

 

Damn i was going to say i want a mini taco

 

the one where you splice the green wire and run another wire to the relay. I think the guy is called peirced tiger, its on cheap mod list somewhere

 

I agree with ya, wasn't knockin ya. Really dope truck man. I went from an 07 Scion tC to the Taco, and I don't regret it one bit. Having the truck is so much nicer than having a tiny car. Congrats

 

Ok, I'm looking at doing this, but unsure of I wanna splice or just run another wire.

 

yea, i dont regret it either except when I get gas. haha but really, I had trouble getting my fishing rod in my celica and got stuck in snow a couple times last year and a speeding ticket of over a hundred, so i went for the 4x4

 

Same man. You pretty much summed up my experience. Except I got hit with a 65 in a 25, and for drifting through a parking lot lol.

scroll about halfway down the page to #9

just dont cut the green wire and leave it, you have to keep it connected to both ends of plug, this was my first mistake. just run a wire from middle of green to the bent relay plug in the pic. its really easy. and drill a hole to run the wire through so it dont get pinched.

 

please tell me that all of your lights are not plug and play xenon kits that thing looks like a glare machine!

nice truck btw but, consider a retrofit for future mods lol.

 

Everything is stock except added hellas. I took the photos with my phone.

 

I finally got my led strips and 24LED dome light




And did the leather armrest mod out of some vinyl

 

Sick taco man

 

posted new pics, painted my mirrors

 

My build is complete! With just couple thousand left to pay and have 97k miles!
