dang, man, truck looks awesome! i really like the BHLM on '12 tacomas!

 

Congrats on the new truck, it looks awesome

 

The BHLM should be factory on the '12. It looks great with the black fog light surround. Beautiful truck man!

 

NIICCEE

 

nice!

hey you got your truck at cabe's too

 

That looks damn good! Where did you get the wheels?

For me, my initial measurements showed a difference of 2" between front and back. I also installed the toytec 1/4" lean spacer it is pretty level with the tsb rear. Measure your ride height now and go from there. I might eventually move to .85 if they settle too much but would throw a 1.5" aal or a new leaf pack.

 

Are the emblems plastidip or painted black?

 

the front of the new tacomas are so ugly!

 

GTFO. There are plenty of other 2012 threads for you to voice your opinion in.

OP,

Truck looks sick! Toyota should have done the BHLM from the factory!

Plastidipped!

Haters gonna hate.

 

then dont comment?

OP truck looks so clean with those new rims and headlights! i honestly didnt care too much for the new design but its starting to grow on me and this truck is freaking awesome!

 

your truck looks sick!

 

Why the aftermarket coils up front?
Won't stock with 1500's do the job?

 

Looks awesome dude!

 

looks sick !

 

did you just take your truck and asked for tsb leaf ? was wondering if i could still go do that

 

My understanding is that the TRD Sport models now come with the TSB rear leafs from the factory.

Either way, if you don't already have them, just drive up to the dealer and tell them it is riding rough with a load in the back. They shouldn't give you any trouble - this TSB has been out for years.
