It was silver and have front fiberglass fenders. Looked pretty sweet

 

Anybody have a CAI installed? v6, whats it going to do for me? had a K&N CAI on my F150 with a throttle body spacer because I liked to tell chicks in high school it was nos haha. But did enjoy the whistle made me feel fast! but have heard mixed reviews on the CAI in the taco.... if anyone has personal experiences, would love to hear about it. I commute a solid 3 miles to work, but I do drive up 395 quite a bit.

 

its going to do nothing

 

I've got the K&N. Makes a purdy noise but thats about it

 

Ah. Mine is front and rear fenders but now with the commuter car it'll be an even rarer site in SB.

 

i have a k&n cai and it sounds bitchin but doesn't make a difference until you do headers and back, which i recommend

 

@SixthSnail, you do any special prep work on the spot before putting the new decal on?

 

The tires rub on the UCA's at full lock, but not too bad. I ordered some 3/4" spacers from Bora that should solve the problem.

 

I cleaned the truck, wiped it down with mineral spirits, then water, then dried it. I don't think you have to do that much, I was just being careful.

Not too bad! Spacers will definitely help.

 

Is it just me or does this seem like a too good to be true kinda deal?

Depends how much cash he wants with a trade, heard nothing but good things about ADS

 

Me too. Seems strange though haha

 

Yea he probably just daily drives it and would rather have some cash and an equally nice ride with some bilsteins

 

PMd him. Just to see what's up

Mounted this today.. haven't wired it yet tho. F'ing dealers drilling into our bumpers..




Detail shot of the mount.. need to get a file out and clean out where I hacked off the stock grill thingy...

 

Also, anybody know the legality of trimming a license plate? I've seen the import/euro community do this but have never heard how legal it is..

 

That looks real clean! We will have to get together when the parts come so we can mount them. possibly next weekend?

 

Thanks! Ya I'll be around next weekend...

 

I think it's illegal but the cops wouldn't get you for it unless you cut some vital info. I've seen people with no front go a long time without a ticket.

Kinda like how all our light bars and bumpers are technically illegal due to not being DOT/SAE approved but they don't give too much hell for it.

What kind of bar is it? We will have to go test it out. I'm going to rewire my light bar soon and could use a hand if you don't mind.
