What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Probably the angle..its a 8inch wide wheel

 

helped my cousin lift my uncles 2010. 3" spacer with AAL rear. she's a street queen.

 

I did mine a couple weeks ago, and I love it. Guess I was a little late if you've already done yours but heres what mine look like:

 

Late but, its a great way to switch things up for cheap I did mine and it works great, just make sure to have a few coats on case you decide to switch back, makes things a lot easier

 

Looks great! Our trucks are going to be twins soon haha. I'm trying to find toyota fender flares but they are impossible to find.

It definitely is. Cost me like $13 bucks and I still have a decent amount left over to play with. I ended up doing 3 coats so I should be good.



I worked on the truck a little today. Changed oil, rotated tires, painted drums gloss black, plastidipped wheels, center caps, and the toyota emblem in the grille. Turned out really good I think.

Oh and somehow I managed to smash myself in the forhead with a lug wrench. Now I have a nice knot and a cut. And a headache.

 

I've asked this question in a couple of threads now but never got a response:

Are there flat black lug nuts that fit our trucks?

 

Yes I think so...well maybe not flat black

 

I've seen them on eBay.

 

why not just spray them flat black yourself?

 

after 1 tire rotation or removal of said painted lugs

they'll look like shit

 

if you prep and paint right, it won't.

 

+1 for the extremely helpful post

 

or you could just touch them up with a china marker...

 

I dunno man. My gut feeling is it could be the best paint job in the world but once the air ratchet hits them, they're done.

 

^^^ I have those on mine and they didn't scratch at all when I installed them.

 

maybe. but we rattlecan smaller stuff here at work with rustoleum and the paint lasts a few days of beating and banging. usually when the piece bends then it all starts coming off.

 

There is no way any type of spray paint with any type of prep work will withstand an impact gun and a hard chrome socket. One time removing the lugs and they will be done.

 

Those are the ones I have bookmarked, but they look shiny

 

They wont look shiny after one winter...
