    I've always been really into Tacomas, this being my 4th build. When I saw the redesign, and that Toyota was offering Quicksand as an option, I couldn't resist. Things moved along quickly, but I find myself at a standstill for another few months until some more bumper options are out there. As we know, Tacomaworld is an invaluable resource. I appreciate all of your help and insight in building these trucks, along with @ToyTec Lifts

    Trading my '13 up for the 16. We're lucky these guys bring serious coin! Had an upgraded @ToyTec Lifts ultimate with remote rears and dakars.

    Thanks! My goal has always been to keep them looking semi-factory. This one might be another story.

    That's what I was thinking also. I was wondering if you could heat up the plastic and get to to form a bit better to the fender.

    I'm interested in a roof mounted lightbar, and I saw the roof-rack and lights mounted... can you put up some more pictures of that and how I get mine? :)
