What’s up TW

Been a while since I’ve been on here and just wanted to say what’s up anyone have any opinions/ suggestions for the ol Taco?

 

Hey!

First thought about your "Rad" lookin' Tacoma...I see "Stripe" from Gremlins in that awesome bumper & lights. There's an aggressive stance in those wheels/tires too!

I see hints of OD Green in your taco...even though it's Black.

Moar pics please!

OD=Olive Drab

 

I’ll be honest I’ve thought about swapping the red for green! And yes it’s definitely a little wide

 

Dang!

Rear Bumper looks great too! Looks like an easy install without cutting.

Those rear tail lights are different...a good different!

You gonna do anything with the wheel fender covers?

When I bought the tails I bought them because nobody else had them haha. Wanting either different ones or to tint them now. The fender flare delete is temporary, it’s an SR5 so they were matte plastic. Deciding if I want paint matched stock flares or paint matched bushwacker flares to replace them.

 

Sliders? Roofrack? Really cool build

 

Been considering the roof rack for a long time, sliders would be cool but I just don’t need them. I like some mild wheeling but I can’t ever see myself putting the truck somewhere I’d need to worry about sliders.

 

get that trailer 7 pin plug moved up into that rear bumper. It's cheap and cleans up that rear end a bit!

 

Understood. I have refrained for similar reasons. my home state has a ton of sand/mud trails but not large rocks typically, not in the places I would often frequent. I like the look of them and would like the added protection but didn't want to add the weight

 

Moved into the rear bumper how? As in cut a hole? It would definitely clean it up but not sure it would be worth it since you can’t exactly touch up the cut on a powdercoated bumper

 

yep, cut a hole. I cut mine so that I could push the connector through the hole from the back side, and then drilled two holes for the lower two bolts to hold it in place, in the new hole. Just use a piece of card board and make a template of the shape and go slow and don't over cut the size. I used a hole saw to cut the round part of the hole, then used a dremel to cut the square part. Then I used black silicone around the plug as a filler to fill in what little crack I had.
