Intro/Question

Hello Tacoma World people! 2018 TRD Off Road 4x4 cement gray with gray interior and orange accents, I guess is how to describe it. First truck ever. Got new last year during "Toyotathon" and yeah.... Have added a TRD cold air intake and TRD predator step bars. Have 7,200 miles on it so far. Worried about taking it back to a dealer for maintenance because the last time I went for it's first check up, they inflated my tired to 38 PSI(Door says run 30 PSI, tires say 32PSI), refused to change my oil(had to make second trip for oil change), and then let a 18 year old drive it in heavy traffic near Charlotte Motor Speedway. Instead of using the shuttle van they normally use to take/pick up customers to the mall down the road from the dealership, they let this kid drive my truck to drop us off and pick us up. Granted he seemed nice and all WHILE I was in the truck with him, who knows how he was alone in my brand new truck with only 3K miles on it at the time. The free Toyotacare plan that came with my truck seems completely stupid minus 2 free oil changes though, does anyone else just change their own oil and not worry about that junk?? I've always changed my own oil and did my own work, but have never had a new vehicle before so.... But I do plan on keeping it for a long time. Got it for $32K, so I hope it lasts. The transmission sure was wonky for a while and still can be and good lord does the motor sound clickity clackity. The TRD CAI DOES add a nice sound when you hit 3500 RPM and you do feel an increase in torque/power when it hits that RPM as well, but besides that, its not really noticeable besides having to clean the oiled filter every 5K.... Using a Toyota TRD cleaner/oiler kit that runs like $40 is another slap in the face for the CAI. especially after seeing the size of the kit! The bottles are like the size of tiny kids water bottles... 8oz though. So that's been my experience with it so far... UNTIL Thanksgiving... Then a deer decided to play chicken with me and ended up slapping it's a$$ with my driver side bumper. Broke the front left bumper guide and front bumper trim piece. $200 in parts, but that included an air filter cleaner kit on sale for $27. The parts arrived and I got excited and went straight to work... even though my cell phone was on charger charging... meaning I overthought my memory abilities and thought it would be okay to not bother taking pics as I took apart the front bumper.... You know that feeling you get when you put something back together and have 1 bolt left over??? Yeah, well, umm, that happened. So I took it all back apart and then had to pull off from the job for 2 days due to some other stuff.... Come back to it and I cannot remember where anything goes. Spent this morning trying to locate some videos,pics, or anything related to which bolts go where on the front bumper. The main issue is the 2 larger, non black colored bolts with phillips head/10mm bolt head on them and where they go. I removed 2 bolts from the fender skirts, the front grill, and all bolts from front bumper. Does anyone have detailed pics of the front end of a 3rd gen Tacoma with grill removed? And inside fenders? or any help? If not its cool, no biggie, I can figure it out. I've just not been having the best year and have grief brain going on and have a 3 year old girl wanting to help me do everything...makes it hard for me to think straight sometimes. Thank you all in advance for any help that can be offered! Man I hope I made enough sense lol

 

The intake add's zero power.
I do my own oil changes.
Oil changes are every 10k, it's why they didnt do it at 5k.

 

Welcome to TW!
I only have this pic, hope it helps

 

This should have what you need for the bumper.

 

Thank you all. everything posted by everyone so far is very helpful!

 

Yeah I saw where they do 10K oil changes, but I specifically requested it changed at 3K because it was new and I have old ways burnt into my brain. I couldn't bear leaving oil in a new motor for a full 10K miles.
