    1st gen tacoma sheet metal is the worst. I wanted minimal stock sheet metal on the truck. I eventually will have a one piece fiberglass clip, but as of now I will run it open.

    Dude Tacoma sheet metal is absolute trash. 1st-3rd gen. Nothing has changed. It does not belong on trucks. Point blank period.

    I guess the stars should be on the other side. For me, I figured I just rotate it and call it good, like you did. Thats when I found out there are tons of rules as to how its "supposed" to be hung.
