    I purchased my first Tacoma about 6 months ago. So far I really like it. Its a 2017 limited. I'm not an expert at anything, but I figured I'd list out what I've done so far to make it my own and a little different than others. If anyone has a question, feel free to reach out. This is an awesome resource for TACO owners to research and learn what to do(or not to do...LOL) Anyway here's the list:
    1)Replaced all plastic chrome, interior and exterior, with matte black
    2)Disassembled the interior to install sound deadening
    3)Kept stock JBL head unit, but upgraded all the speakers and replaced sub with a better one
    4)Upgraded all bulbs inside and out with high power LEDs
    5)Replaced front grille with a TRD type grille
    6)Replaced wheels and tires, but did not add a lift, I think it looks ok the way it is. Biggest tire size allowed to maintain factory ride height was 265/70/17, and wheels are 17x9.5 -18mm offset. I had a very slight rubbing with full turns, but fixed it with a little mod to wheel well liner

    Looks great! I plan on doing the same upgrades soon with the exception of the wheels. Great color too!
