    Looks unbelievably stupid.

    Great way to ruin a nice truck, and waste money that could have been put towards something more functional and far better looking.

    Yeeeah, I'm gonna go ahead and say no. Not a fan.

    Low profile Baja Claws?? :confused: Really? Looks like they did the opposite of the Tonka truck photoshop job.

    All you like do is run your mouth about my truck!! Keep hating just cuz you never show up to the Cruz with your truck besides you never even build your truck, was shipped to Kauai already lifted atleast I can say I built mine!!! Straight up well see who's one is nicer at the next Cruz, bring out your truck and well have everyone judge it. Next Cruz is at 9:00am on December 9th at the county building in Lihue!!! That's not my only set of rims and just to let you know those wide 15x20 rims in the picture with 35 boggers my truck spins them like cake and polihale ride sand with ease with those tires so no even talk shit about my truck cuz you don't even know what goodies I have in it! See you at the Cruz if you get anything more to say, say it to my face at the next Cruz not online like an immature kid talking shit about other people's trucks! Grow up!!

    So because I said I dont like it and that is talking shit?

    I have never built a truck?

    http://wizzard005.smugmug.com/2012-Toyota-Tacoma

    your welcome to check out what i did.....

    Also, I was there, I came up to you and started to ask questions, and you could of cared less about what questions i had because you prob though i was some stupid haole. I took my street bike that day and prob in December if its rain I will have the truck, if its nice I will have my bike since i am part of the riders of Kauai...

    Also I never said anything bad, I just said it wasn't for me, there is nothing wrong with that, i am sorry you got offended but i didn't mean it to come out that way.....

    For your statement about building trucks I have done all this by hand:

    Just some of the shit i used to do before moving to Kauai. We have been on some of the hardest trails in America, no offense Kauai beach doesn't count as "wheeling" but it is the only thing we have that wont fuk up the trucks vs some of the stuff up loop road, our trucks are far too nice to bring them there.... If power-line was a real trail that you wouldn't screw up your truck, I would build mine to do it, however I MTN bike it and that is even hard........

    Last part I did ask you about Tacoma-world, I asked if you have ever been to the site you said no, and you have never heard of it........

    Again, sorry if i offended.. I work over here at Hardware Guys Next to subway in lihue, come stop by as we got off on the wrong foot...

    If I dont see ya, I will see you December 9th...

    I spent enough time in Hawaii to see plenty of trucks modified in this manner. It may look aesthetically displeasing to some, to others non-functional, or whatever impression it gives, but no matter how we dis/like it, the man invested his own time, money, and seat into that truck --gotta respect that! The culture on da Islands is different, and the taste in vehicle styles vary. We just have to accept it. Why hate? Lots of other people would do those kinds of mods if they could actually afford it, too, or they'd go another direction --either way is just fine. I'm pretty sure that the truck is a beast when it needs to be, and im also pretty sure that it breaks necks when it cruuuuuzes... I know this cos I'd do double takes myself if i saw that truck in person.

    Props bu!

    Hey Wiz, niiiiiice work!
