What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Today, just wash inside and out. Truck hasn't had a bath in 2 months.
The (snapback) from Amazon works great on the plastic.

 

Just wondering, I used to swap factory parts on hundreds of GM cars and trucks, including wheels, beauty rings and center caps. I bought my 1st new Toyota truck last year, and I'm keeping it mostly stock. I like the original 16 inch standard steel wheels, but are there other Toyota center caps that can be swapped and fit these wheels without any "customization" ?
I saw another third gen with some black center caps on these wheels at an intersection last week, but I didn't get a closer look to see for sure if they were Toyota pieces ... Just asking, ... if anybody knows some suggestions.

 

1st wash of new truck. I went ahead did decon and Clay, then 2 coats of turtle wax graphene ceramic coating. 1 time trying the turtle wax and I have to say it was very easy to work with.



oh and I finally installed the OEM mud guards, hopefully they keep some of the crap of the side of the truck.

 

Toned down the look of the garnish. Made it look more natural. I had tint on there and it looked great but with tint not really being for exterior use I used my cricut to cut some laminex (just a basic rectangle with curved edges). Looks good and will last and add a little protection.

I hated how bright the grey was on the non oem garnish.

My OCD always has me doing dumbsh!@

also have laminX on my light bar.

 

There is more downhill coming back then going, I think it's about 600 foot elevation change, and the wind might have been at my back. Lol! Either way I was happy with it.

 

I had a 22 SR before I traded it in for a 23 OR. I put fog lights in mine. The connection is for fog lights. You will need an extra harness to continue the connection. You may be able to just swap out the stalk switch for one that has the fog light switch but you will have to check the wiring for that to make sure. I was lucky and had the wiring.
There are a bunch of threads here in TW that will talk about it...including when I did it.

this thread was a big help https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/nitoris-oem-sr-foglight-mod.451495/

 

Took it up to Storybook Trail and the Skyline Drive...beautiful foliage and warm weather.

 

Was that a solar octane taco? We saw one on Skyline Drive yesterday.

 

Not sure about any other center caps that are interchangeable. Maybe pop them off and plasti-dip them?

 

Well duh. Driving south it’s downhill.

 

Flyback transformer. It was an option that year.

 

Thank you. Not sure, had mobile upholstery installers install it. They had to take the cloth off and they installed the leather

 

I like what you did with the Grill Garnish.
What exactly did you use for it? I HATE the way it looks stock. Yours looks Great!!

 

Here's what I got. Looks brand new to me. https://www.bobsmirrors.com/Gentex-...g-Play-For-2016-2023-Toyota-Tacoma_p_327.html

 

Icon 1.5" AAL and Icon 2.0 non resi shocks. Thank you @EDDO

 

Thanks. I used laminX. If I had more I would just send you one. I got dark smoke.

I used a cricut to cut it. I can give you the exact dimensions you’ll need to plug in.

You have to use plain water only when applying this stuff. If you think you’re gonna have to move it at all which getting it just right on this garnish- alotta times you can do fog lights with no water, but I would recommend it on this job so you can get it just so Laminx is very forgiving as well

Soapy water will make it bubble.

 

Actual night shot ( it's dark outside now)
I think it turned out just fine.

 

OK
I used something like that on my Benz one time, I'll try it out. Thank you.

 

35% tint looked the best but wasn’t sure how long it would have lasted.
