    thanks its funny cause my wife had the same year 4runner but for some reason I like way this drives better,,,, I have a little rot on that hood and the bottom of the tailgate.. wanted to ask everyone if I should get a new hood and tailgate for this truck or look for used? there is a little rot spot on the rocker so again I can maybe fix that but,,, hmm should I let a body shop just replace the hood and gate and touch up the rust spots then paint to match...

    my headlight lenses are faded too,, I still can see but not the brightest should I replace them if so buy where?

    Welcome to TW...lots of aftermarket headlights to choose from. Now...paint and body,with what’s already been done to it I would consider having a complete paint job. I think you’ll find it would be a good investment considering Tacoma’s resale value.
