    +10000000 for such a helpful community seems there's a bunch of regular bitches always telling people to search or that their ideas suck. GTFO if you got nothing to add.

    Just find the guy who has a '12 and wants that '11 look! Seriously! How many have sold those ugly 09+ LED tail lights for some slick looking 05-08 tails?! And we've seen hoods swapped out to get rid of the skewp! Never say never.

    Apparently, you're in the minority because Toyota went back to the '05-'08 design for '12 ;)

    Naw whipper's got some good insights sometimes. I've had a few other members who felt it pertinent to come on and trash my threads or just talk crap. Chris hit the nail on the head....these guys act like I'm modding their trucks or what I like affects them. Fkn buzz off.

    OP - Just to get back on topic, please post pics of the conversion if you end up doing it. I'm curious to see if it's a simple bolt-up conversion.

    He brings up a very good point here. There are a lot of after market bumpers that look awesome. I know there is a thread on here with all the different kinds and I tried to find it but no luck. Maybe someone can find it and post it on here to give you more ideas.

    Just another idea. Good luck.

    X1000. For someone who talks so much shit about Tacomas, how they're not fast, bricks, shitty quality, blah blah blah, Whipper posts to every thread in here...it is amazing to Workman that Whipper has this much time on his hands and feels like he must comment on every post, given that Whipper does not appear to even like Tacomas and wants to drive a little VW.:confused: Many a thread has been stained by his negativity...

    Sorry for staining this thread with this comment, Workman just thinks its bizzare how someone can comment in every fuckin thread, especially just to down on someone's ideas. What a waste of time, Workman is upset that he JUST wasted 5 mins of his life by typing this bitch fest:cool:

    Chris4x4 deleted 40 (yes 40) posts from this thread, and is not amused with the bullshit that has gone on. Chris4x4 closed the thread, and if there is another outbreak of bullshit like this in another thread in the future, Chris4x4 and the other Mods, are going to take appropriate disiplinary measures.
