    Looks especially good paired with the satoshi grille. I would definitely be interested in seeing more pictures and a write up.

    Proper air pressure in tires, clean windows, coins under seats.
    That looks like a 99-03 4Runner lower valence panel. I'm guessing the same year bumper? Or is that an oem Tacoma bumper?

    That is a 99-02 "fat lip" 4Runner bumper.

    That looks fantastic BTW OP, inspired choice.:thumbsup:

    It sticks out far, trust me. This is a super popular thing to do in hawaii. I'm actually waiting to find a rear ended lunar mist runner to steal the front from. @Empty_Lord shoot me a DM, I can send you an instagram of a tacoma with it on with good pictures.

    01-04 grille sticks out further. I just don’t know how much further. The 01 up bumper looks odd with a 95-00 front end too
