    Hi Friends. New here. Bought a 2017 Tacoma new and have just begun some modifications. Looking for insight and perspective and know how as I am an amateur auto user.

    Welcome to the forums!

    Most, if not everything you seek is likely on these forums... somewhere. If not, ask away.

    Check your paint … seems like white may be problematic especially in the earlier models.

    I’m confused … you purchased a Tacoma new? It’s a 2017 and it’s 2021 ..

    I appreciate that. Slowly trying to figure out how to learn about my truck and make some upgrades. It definitely gets me further than it used to with clearance!

    To clarify, Bought in 2017, and it is getting modified in 2021. Sorry.

    Also, I just upgraded to 33's. Quite a bit of rubbing up front. Would you all say it necessary to trim the wheel wells or fender at all?
