    That's awesome. Good karma sent Steve's way. Good to see younger guys having better customer service than the big boys.

    Not true haha. Ever been in silt? :eek:

    It keeps from dirt/sand shooting up over into the hood and above.

    I didn't think it was going to be a problem, Steve is a really cool dude.


    And the price sounds about right. It looks like a lot of it is TIG. Can't really tell but I think it is.

    Really? Doesn't seem like a small piece of ABS would do much but you are out in sand more than I am.

    Yeah, it looks amazing can't argue that at all. Mine is also mild and I know it isn't as detailed as his but mine was only $750.

    Yup, I've lawn darted a few times and the only thing that has bent is the skid plate.

    Had an extensive talk with Bobby over at solo earlier today.

    It is a custom 32 gallon "tank" that they build specifically for the tacoma builds. Hooks right up to the stock gizmoez.

    A few TT teams have actually wind tunnel tested the valences. They do absolutely nothing till very high speeds. So on any thing but a 100+mph TT they are only for looka
