Yo, this is a WIP (work in progress).
My dream truck is a white DCSB 4x4.. but the prices aren't there at the moment so I went with what I could. At first I never was a fan of the LB's, but mine is growing on me more and more every day.

Off to a good start. Welcome to the 2006 club my friend. Keep them coming.

 

Thankyeman. I didn't go with an 05 because I head they had a few kinks. I plan to stay in the Taco family for a long time!

 

Right on. You can't go wrong with that. I need more pictures of this beauty of yours. That future mod list of yours will only get longer. Next thing you know, you're gonna be asking if I should put more $$$ into this thing at 135K miles. haha. What mileage are you at?

 

I bought it with 111k on the clock, my old truck (04 Sierra) had 142k on it when I got it. I have faith in Toyota's and their reputation that's why I had no difficulty saying yes to 100k miles


I'm actually only doing stuff that I can swap between different trucks as I plan to get my dream truck ASA the price drops down on white 4x4s.

 

Thanks

 

Not a bad idea for the tip. Report back in a few months to see how its holding up. Otherwise the badges on the tailgate look good.

 

thankyeman. i didn't clear them cause I didn't have any matte, so tonight I went and picked some up. Tomorrow I'm painting my lower valance flat black, and painting the two side emblems.


and that High Heat paint is awesome. I can tell just my looking at it that it'll hold up. That picture is of one coat. Tomorrow I'm jacking the truck up and doing the exhaust all the way to the cats.. or until i run out of paint. LOL

 

Bump. Updated w/ pics of Interior LEDs. I'm 5/11 way there.

 

have a write up of the interior and cup holder leds?

really the hardest thing is taking a razor blade to cut some of the coating away from the shifter light wires, after that i soldered two leads onto them and went from there. my footwell lights are run to my far left cubby thing and i have a switch there so i can cut them off whenever i want. the cupholder leds are hardwired w/ no switch so they automatically cut on with my lights.

 

BUMP!

As of the last month or so I've accomplished all this:

Plastidip rear bumper
Painted my pinch weld (rubberized frame paint)
Painted my toyota emblem (rubberized frame paint)
Plastidip chrome grille
Installed front+rear cupholder lights and center console lights
Traded with KegsTACO for his BHLM and tinted tails
Installed a Pioneer AVH 3200DVD w/ scoshe dash kit (painted flat black)
Painted AC controls flat black

 

Can we get some pics?!!

 

^^^^ (look up) lolol

 

oh my bad, I guess my internet was lagging because they didnt show up for some reason but I see them now

I love the footwell and cupholder lights. They look great. Where you planning on painting the truck flat black or flat grey?

 

Soon hopefully, I'm not technically painting it, just changing what kind of clearcoat is on it.

My bilsteins are going to be ordered soon and possibly a set of LR ucas just gotta get the bilsteins in stock

 

hey how do you get that front emblem to come out?

 

Just noticed your reply. I sent you a PM

edit here's a pic of the yellow fogs in actions

 

looks good man! i really wanted a Speed way blue DCSB trd off road 4x4. but i got the silver instead. in over 3 months i could not find a SWB DCSB trd off road 4x4. with in like 4 hours of me.

i’m about to redo my rear bumper with bed liner. may do my badges with the stuff as well. idk. and any time fog is coming soon. as well as the cockpit and cub holder lights.

 

I hear you bro! Once I get a good job I plan to upgrade.

Do Line-X for your bumper, all my armor is going to be done in it because of their warranty and the fact it's not as rough as rhinoliner. If you need any help with the interior lights let me know I'll be glad to help!
