    I have the mod bug like crazy, I haven't even taken possession of my 2010 Taco yet and already it has a 6" lift, 18x9 xd addicts, 35x12.50 Nitto Terra Grapplers....then I went and ordered the Stage III H1 HID's, a 2011 painted grille, black Tacoma badges all around....whew!!

    Now I need some good nerf bars....any ideas out there?? (powdercoated black) don't really want the steps..

    I cannot wait until I can get home and get all of these mods done!!

    Anyone else just go overboard all at once and can't stop??
    I think I will be shmoozing the wife for a long time to come!!

    This is my 2nd Taco, so I know what I like...it's been less than 2 weeks and I've already put in 5100s, heated signal mirrors, nerf bars (black Westin, btw), in-channel rain guards, Sockmonkey decals, debadged, WeatherTech floor liners, and I've also got a new set of Hankooks waiting in the shed for my XD Addicts to show up.

    LMAO,

    No really she is cool though, I got rid of my 2011 STI sedan to get this truck and I had more money into my wheels alone (Volk TE37SL's) than I do in this truck. I think she was just happy to see me make a better decision. I am just a car guy and can't help it!! But I guess I should slow down otherwise I may end up having to fork over another Louis Vuitton :eek:

    Do you have anymore pics of your westins?? Those are the ones I have been thinking about going with but I am not 100% sure yet....I saw some other full size sliders on some trucks that looked really good too!!

    Your truck looks really good, and yeah I think I am sold on the Westins...going to get the 4" powder coated ones, I think they
    will go good with the lift and wheels!!

    Thanks again,

    I recommend rock sliders over nerf bars. They have saved me on many occasions. I went with CBI with DOM upgrade w kickout powdercoat black. No regrets. Lets see some pics of this truck!

    Well I wish I could quit but I knew I needed something else, so I picked up some Westin 4" nerf bars today...I know I know, they are the first thing that breaks when wheeling but I do not plan on climbing any rocks and with the 6" lift I would hope that the bottom of the body isn't contacting the ground as that would be very bad!!
