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

Oh ya that'll be more then enough.. I freaking love that Bedliner in a can, best stuff ever other then plasti dip...

Now I'm totally reconsidering my trucks "final look" I want a bumper like that now..... Ughhh... I gotta stay off this forum haha makes me keep spending money...

 

I know the feeling... Modded this truck as much as my old one within 4 months when it took me over a year and a half to do on my old truck haha

 

Haha I know I'm in the same boat my 99 that I had for 2 years was about the same as mine now that I've had for 2 months

 

First snow of the year! Whoot!

 

looks sweet
did they grind the welds down or do you do that?

Wow, I saw the pics you posted, bumpers is nice!
Any tips? or a way that I can get it even once I weld it?

 

They just welded it. There' a few spots that they grinded such as the tubes.

 

Awesome, im gonna go try and tighten it today. Its too cold out! for Austin texas 30* is too cold. Yesterday the whole city went into panic mode becasue it was below freezing and had been raining slightly. I like it because schools/ buisnesses close down and we get the day off

 

Went tree shopping:

 

got some new Osram headlight bulbs (new one on the right).

Installed two Front Runner load bars to replace my cracked and bent generic load bars. The Front Runner bars feel 10 stronger than the old ones, look better, and have way more function. Very high quality product. Thinking of adding 2 more bars for some other items I need to mount....

 

Looks good dude, wered you pick those up from

 

Those do look good. How much did they run you? I got those Silverstar zXe's for like $60 a pair. I like the way they look but im still feeling bent over about the price.

 

osrams were $40 on ebay. they were the night breaker unlimited or something like that. lets see how long they last….

 

huh not sure why it does that Brent..lke the who thing bows down..but not reallly a bad thing. Don't have to wrry about the corners of the bumper flexing up into the fenders now from body/frame flex when offroading.

 

did some snow testing...all test came out positive ...this truck has snow fever...only remedy is to plow through it!

 

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's just bowing. But like you said, not necessarily a bad thing and will be hardly noticeable once it's painted.

Got the bumper all grinded down. Plan to paint tomorrow and reinstall on Monday.

 

what are you painting with. i plan on doing bedliner with flat black pro grade rustolium

 

Rustoleum primer and bedliner as well.

 

Damn.. mine hasn't even shipped yet and yours is all finished up.

 

Finished installing my new fenders and relocating my windshield washer reservoir.

 

How long has it been since you ordered? My wait time was about 2 weeks before it shipped. So a total of about 2 1/2 weeks before it showed up.
