    Great write up! I'm kind of glad I don't have a newer taco because it looks like it takes so much longer to do this! Luckily I didn't even need to do bondo with mine since it sits flush. The "lipped" ones do look nice but I had no choice since I have to fit lights. Here's a quick pic I took after I got mine done, I need to take some nicer ones later.
