    Well, I've recently bought a 2016 :crapstorm:, but wanted to have a spot to throw up what I'd done on my earlier 2005 DCLB TRD Sport, in case I could help someone else learn from my mistakes!! I'll be selling the truck (at some point), so I may not add to much to this - but it can be used as a reference (for newer noobs!)

    Brought home and cleaned up with about 155K on the odo:

    First mod, as per usual... BHLM:

    In no particular order (because I can't remember the order!), skid plate, raptor lights and TRD emblem (I didn't want anyone to forget it was a TRD, I suppose):

    Next was some new wheels for her, she was getting tired of the worn out stocks - enter SCS Stealth 6's!! Then, and this is of course the piece de resistance, the re-purposed HomerTaco grille:

    Afterwards, I re-did the bumper (some paint peeling issues) so took the opportunity to install some Rigid SR-Q flush mount LED backup lights into the bumper. After I tinted the rear taillights it was pretty dim back there so this mod was basically a must! (even ask my wife!):


    That's pretty much it for big ticket items. Other mods include:
    - LED interior lighting
    - Wet Okole seat covers (front and rear)
    - Husky x-act floor mats (which are awesome)
    - TRD Pro shift knob (loving that +5 HP kick)
    - hood scoop light bar (thanks C4Fab)

    That's it folks - looking forward to starting the mod train on the 2016'er
