    Any water damage?

    There is a hood swappin and tradin thread, but you have little to no chance of this. Might want to look in to aftermarket models or quoting one from the dealer

    A back step for when I get older, Carhartt seatcovers, 4Runner wheels, Topper, and "tats all folks"! --for now!!
    To anyone swapping hoods on any BBP Tacoma -- I would be very careful --check closely the "quality" of the paint on what you are swapping for. There has been quite a bunch of BBP paint failures on the 3rd gen tacoma.
    So far my truck has looked fine, but there are bad ones that are popping up. To this "untrained" eye , it looks like a clearcoat fail in these cases.
