    Just stopping in and saying hi! Bought my 1st taco just 2 months ago and loving it so far. I'm not the most mechanically inclined person so I'm slowly but surely learning as I go with some smaller mods.

    Welcome!

    I see you got red lettering on the tailgate...I did the same.

    And your tail lights are updated too.

    What else have you done to your Midnight Black Sport?

    Added raptor lights, replaced OEM Sideview mirror turn signal with a sequential signal, and some minor cosmetic stuff inside, mats, organizers and such.

    Eyeing a pro style grill, tire and a leveling kit and thinking of swapping out the OEM headlights eventually as well. Not to mention the camping gear im eyeing too . Been a fun rabbit hole to dive down so far

    Buahahaha!

    I forgot to mention the Raptor Lights! I see they make adapters for the OEM grill...I have the Empyre vintage grill & Raptor Lights. I need to do install very soon!

    Yes, it can be a rabbit hole but pace yourself. My wife was getting annoyed after I started buying more stuff for my Sport. (After buying Sidesteps/CAT skid/Exhaust Tip, Red letters for tailgate)

    No matter how I explained it, I could not compare it to her purchases making her happy...like I felt when I bought something new for my Taco. lol

    I want the Diamondback Tonneau cover but my wife would freak if I told her it cost about $1800.

    Welcome to TW. Be careful with those small mods though, eventually they turn into big mods and all of a sudden you find yourself driving 3 hours with suspension parts and new tires in the bed because you saw a deal you couldn’t pass up. Speaking from personal experience on this one :rofl:
