What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

I did something similar, when I was first driving my truck and learning the manual I scraped the side of my narrow apartment garage, I buffed out a lot of the paint transfer but the scratches were deep, here is my repaint attempt. Not terrible, but wish I could've filled in the scratches better.

As you can see some primer oversprayed somehow, so I have to get that out. That's a project for me tomorrow

 

Everything I want, just the TRD sport. I love the color. Sweet truck man! By the time I save up 24k it'll probably drop in price, haha

 

Sorry just saw this.

Thanks! I was super lucky that the dent popped out at about 90% and most of those scrapes diminished. The deap ones are forever. Props to @DesertRatliff for recommending that I give it a shot.

I took off those small bumper flares a while ago for some reason. I can't remember why lol. Never got around to putting them back on, but they're good condition though. Not sure if they'll cover much.

Ya that would be sweet, I really want a front bar bumper but i can't see myself throwing down $1000s

 

Not bad though! 100x better

 

Call Tony at Lifestyle Garage in El Cajon, tell him you're a friend of Rod's and you'd like a qoute on an alignment. 619-368-2819 . Totally legit shop with a new state of the art alignment machine. Tony has done all of my gear swaps since 1993, among other things.

I'll be there tomorrow and on Friday rewiring a Jeep with a ton of aftermarket lights and ALL red wires. Lol

 

Right on! Thanks brother

 

Installed the

$165 midland mxt275 micromobile GMRS radio - 15 watts two-way radio with integrated control microphone - overland caravanning tractors - detachable external magnetic mount antenna - 8 repeater channels

midland mxt275 GMRS today. Did a little test run a couple blocks away with an FRS on the other end seems to work well. Full test will be out in the woods next weekend!

 

Got my truck back from the body shop. Brand new tailgate and emblems. I removed the “V6” badge and am thinking of removing the “Toyota” and maybe even the “Tacoma” as well. Whatcha guys think?

 

Remove the "Toyota part and plastidip the Tacoma part black. I've always liked the black on grey look.

Looks clean btw

 

Got a Pelican Vault to replace the Plano.

 

A write up on that wiring process would probably get lots of attention. I know this is one practical upgrade/mod I think about. My '13 SR5 has the black standard side views.

 

I agree with this.

 

I like the no badge look.buts thats just my opinion

 

One of you 3d guys needs to come up with a Ram ball that incorporates that little plastic A-pillar bolt cover into the Ram Ball Shaft. (man this could go sideways quickly)





You could make 'em in charcoal and sell them with a bolt. folks like one stop shopping.

you're welcome.

 

+1

I'm all about the de-badged look. Do it.

 

there is a list someone made of all the class 6 roads in NH floating around somewhere I think but its really just trial and error in driving out and seeing which ones are still good to drive. Shoot me a DM.

 

URD SPEC-U exhaust system with equal length y-pipe.

 

These posts receive my stamp of approval as well. I have the same mirrors in my shed that I need to modify.

 

Did a 3D scan ...
