    Halo headlights
    Bull bar

    Yea, well I've had a tacoma for roughly 5 yrs but haven't tried to do anything with it yet. I'm exploring options for the truck now.

    A few additions to make me feel cool.
    Welcome, don't add a bull bar. They look horrendous and add zero protection and normally cause more damage than if it didn't exist in a collision. Replace with a plate bumper if that's the look you want or leave the front alone.

    So is there any mods that I can do to the 08 tacoma that brings it closer to the newer models? I seen online I can do a tail gate lock even a thermostat Guage like the newer ones.
