    Hello folks! I am happy to finally have some time to type up something for the forum. I purchased my 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Offroad in March of last year. I bought her with 70K miles and she already had a levelling kit and 285/75/16s on the OEM wheels. My Taco came pretty stripped down (aside from the Bilsteins, Leveling Kit, and Nitto Grapplers).

    I want to say my first mod was a TRD Pro Style Grill. I feel like that just makes the truck what it is. Anyway, I don't want to make this a short story, so here is the list of mods I have added.
    • 20% Tint Doors / 5% Back Glass / 5% Shade Band
    • TRD Pro Style Grille
    • OEM TRD Pro Skid Plate
    • Auxito LED / High Beam / Low Beam / 3000K Fog Lights / Signals / Brakes / Reverse / Side Markers / Rear Tailight / Bed Light / Interior
    • Auxito LED Grille Lights
    • Head Unit: Sony XAV-AX7000 Reciever (40w RMS x 4)
    • Front: Sundown SA 6"x9" Coaxials + Hertz DT 24.3 1" Tweeters
    • Rear: Sundown SA 6.5" Coaxials
    • TRD OEM Bilsteins w/Leveling Kit
    • Vision Nemesis Wheels 17x9 -12 offset (Gunmetal)
    • Cooper AT3 Discoverer 4S 285/70/17 Tires
