What have you done cosmetically to your Taco? Whats your favorite aesthetic mod? Mine is a tie between the Winjet tail lights and the trd skid plate. My cosmetic mods are: black/red tacoma tailgate inserts. Winjet taillights. Black bumper covers(removed the fake chrome ones). Removed chrome tacoma and v6 emblems. Installed Trd rear license bracket. Installed Trd hood and tailgate emblems. Raptor lights in the grill. Trd pro style Offroad door emblems. Trd pro wheel center caps. In channel wind deflectors. Bug deflector. Sunroof deflector. Black trd pro skid plate. Demon brackets with red and black shackles. Sokie tech hood struts. Toyota front and rear mud flaps. Trd Offroad fuel cap holder. Trd Offroad door sill protectors. Trd pro manual shift knob. Anodized red a/c trim rings. Center console safe.

Lots of mods in just the first few pics. My goal was basically monochromatic. Red or Black and muted.

There is a fine line between "hottie" and "hooker".

Thanks for the heads up. I am moving my post to that page. Sorry if this post bothered anyone.

Not feeling it, but doesn't mean you can't enjoy. The Red accent clashes entirely too much, too many add ons that are clearly not factory looking. Otherwise nice choice on the transmission.
