    Best recommendations for a:
    Dome and Map Light kit (thinking CSJumper)
    Bed Light Kit, complete with button and all
    Under the Hood Light Kit, also complete with button and all
    40-42' LED Light Bar. Plan on using http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/2n...35328-sell-42-light-bar-roof-rack-mounts.html to attach the bar straight to my rack.

    I plan on plasti-dipping the rear bumper as I really really hate chrome. Based on redcbs's pictures, it looks really nice. However, plasti-dipping the grille in my opinion, looks tacky. I want suggestions on what to do, I like the look of Ricks2013 Raptor Style grille with color matched grille surround but I would like other suggestions.

    Suggestions on a thin, trifold tonneau cover.

    Any and all help is appreciated, thanks!

    Welcome to TW, YoungTacoOwner!

    Sounds like you have already planned your upgrades. It's a never-ending thing though...especially if you hang out around this forum, LOL.

    I've done the BAJA suspension upgrade on my truck, the Grillcraft mesh grills, FJ rims and Toyo P265/70R17....TRD Supercharger and a bunch of little things that all add up.

    I would make a list of the things you plan on upgrading and follow them through, take it in steps and try not to do anything twice!

    Purchase the best quality parts for your Tacoma, that's the most helpful advice I can give you!

    I'd change the flux capacitor belt to a shorter one for a little more torque when taking off from stop lights. It really helps in the winter or in slippery conditions via engine braking also.


    No but really, weathertechs are pretty cool. They look like max coverage so I'm sold.
