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

why bother?? doesn't that defeat the point..

 

not at all? its crazy how much more i can see now with the tube doors. i can damn near spot myself. the canvas would be awesome for those trails with spots with water crossings and muddy spots.... tons of people on ih8mud and pirate run half doors over tube doors due to the fact less can get in and fall out... and it actually even helps if the heat is on on a cold day....

 

So why didn't you make half doors haha

I bet if you take them to a sew shop they can do it pretty easy. Hell i bet you can find an actual canvas shop down there. I know there is one in MT.


or


learn to sew haha

 

My friend has that roll bar foam padding stuff on his roll cage for his K2 Blazer.

Hell, you could probably slice a pool noodle length wise and put it over the bar. And they come in all sorts of nifty color.... you could add a splash of neon pink to your build

You're going to wrap it in canvas? I'd rivet beefy snap closures into it so you could at least take it off if you want to go true tube style.

There's a guy in Lafayette that does all sorts of custom interior work. I'm sure he could make it very easily. Auto Interiors Plus.

The beauty is in the imperfections.

 

buy some SEM tintable bedliner mix in your body color. and then spray some single stage paint directly over it

 

When I was a kid my brothers and I would call multi-coloured vehicles "diseased" haha

 

Washed it, drove it.

 

The new switch and light bar!!

 

Lol my switch is the exact opposite. ^The tacoma is lit up green when it's off and the letters light up red too when I turn it on.

Looks good bro.

 

Otrattw?

 

That's where I got mine from.

 

safer. psshh. whatever helps you sleep at night
glad i could "inspire" something haha

time to make your truck friendly for the trail

SEE! See what i mean, its crazy how much more capable that fact alone makes you as a driver.

because IMO half doors look like ass

 

I got a couple from otwattw before they had the crazy huge selection. They just say "fog lights" "driving lights" haha
I need to buy more crap just so I can get cool new switches.

 

Same here lol

 

That's cool I wanted to switch it up alittle and thanks. That's where I got them from and plan on getting more when I need them.
