    I feel the same way, your house or mine, doesn't matter to me...we'll get it done! I have half an acre fenced for the dogs if you guys end up over here too. My grill took a dump though, and something tells me we should burn some beef after we do man work...

    I have a freezer full of meat. Don't ask where it came from though... :). Just kidding, but I do have a freezer full. I can bring the grill over too. Maybe we can get some other people who rarely pop in here over there.

    @Josh...what'd you do with your stock suspension? Did you reuse your top plates with the OME kit? Did you find your moulding you were looking for? All back together?

    @Roy...update on your truck? What'd insurance say?

    Me too, on the cash...didn't want to spend $299 on shocks right now, but it was due. Especially with new tires installed (want em to last). The ride sucks too, I was blaming the heavy D rated tire for not flexing enough and causing the bad ride. Don't get me wrong, those tires always rode stiff and heavy feeling(<-----sounds really bad, no homo). But the shocks have 95,000 miles on them, and the right rear has about three inches of compression before it thunks and not much else. I think that hanging a wheel and tire combo that weighs +70lbs off of a stock Tacoma suspension is a bad idea and accelerated the wear of the suspension components.

    Insurance said about $5k in damage. I'm trying to find a body shop that will get me some money back while still doing good work :cool:

    Any ideas?

    Also, since the hood and roof both need replaced, I was thinking about having them painted black instead of SWB, to make the truck unique.
    Someone suggested getting the hood carbon fiber- at first I laughed and thought of fast n furious, but found a couple tacomas on here with them and they don't look too bad. What do you guys think? Too ricey? I like the look, and the CF hoods are actually cheaper than buying an OEM hood and painting it, which would put more cash in my pocket. I really can't decide, and feel like I should ask the audience before I make a final decision.
