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

I got nothing against any ones truck but the 01-04 is the best looking 1st gen there is.

 

Ha..yea..fuck you haha

Just needed a bandaid

 

FTFY!

 

What do y'all suggest for this:







Eventually it's gonna wear through and then my carpet will have a hole wear in it.
Anyone have success with getting a new pad, thingy

 

Bedliner

 

Bedliner what?

 

Bedliner errthing

 

Lol I already went through that little phase with the chrome on my truck when I discovered Rustoleum Bedliner instead of Plasti Dip.... chrome lost, chrome lost bad

 

But seriously. Is that little pad thing in the carpet or glued down? Either way seems like a pain in the ass to fix/get up

 

It's glued down. I don't even know what I'd search to get a new one.. and bed lining sounds like there'd be too much overspray on the interior and that is no bueno

 

I think it'd be too hard to get another one out of another truck... I don't know

 

Glued I think.

 

Hmm there's a 2002 single cab Taco in the junkyard a few miles away but damn I don't wanna pay $2 just to go there and see I can't get it up in one piece let alone glue down on my carpet/old stomp pad.

Screw it... I'll fashion something, eventually

 

Messed up on my grille when I originally bed lined it so I took a razor & some sand paper to it (that rustoleum bed liner stuff is actually really tough)
-- well I kind of like how it turned out. I'll leave it for a few days and eventually black it out if it doesn't grow on me:

Close Up Shot:

 

Get floor liners such as Husky's and I believe they cover that.

Get new carpet and new floor liners and do it right

 

Gettin a alignment as we speak

 

Installed new shifter bushings and a magnefine transmission filter.

 

Installed led headlights and a 20 inch light bar in my lower bumper! It really lights up the night!

 

What kind of headlights did you use?

 

Try these self-adhesive tread pads. They are at Harbor Freight, Home Depot or most auto part stores for only a few bucks. Cut it to size, but bigger than the existing piece by a few inches so you get some overlap. The adhesive is pretty good, but if it does not stick to the carpet, use some contact glue. It will last a lifetime.
