    OME 3" lift up Front, LR UCA's, All-Pro Expo leafs in back, 17" XD Addicts with 285/70/17s, OEM Roof Rack, Westin Light Bar, Relentless Tailgate plate, Weathertech's, Blue Sea Fuse Box, Iggy's Switch Holder, Pioneer avh-3300bt Radio, LED Interior/License Plate Lights
    Anyone in the area interested in a used set of Light Racing UCA's? I think I am going to get a new set for the tech to install when they do my frame replacement, and then sell the set that is currently on there since they don't have the upgraded bushings on them rather than do it later and have to pay to realign it again.

    So what do u guys think about the 2017 Tacoma pro?

    Without driving a 3rd gen and based on appearance......I like it a lot. I didn't like the 3rd gen at all until I saw one lifted. Now that they put a much nicer looking grill on it, it has become much more appealing to my eye. I love the Baja/Pro add ones....to me it's worth it......but make no mistake, it will be over priced. I definitely like some of the add ons that come on this 3rd gen pro that did not come on the previous one and the baja.
    I'll be there on Monday.

    I wonder if it will be over priced if a person didn't modify it compared to someone putting on a similar lift plus tires. I remember reading an article about all the pros and price wise it kinda equals out

    I kinda remember reading something similar. Im very happy with my baja suspension. I don't know any specs on the fox stuff they put on but I'm quite sure it's comparable if not better. Plus there is other stuff they put on that they didn't add on the bajas and previous pros. Leather, rigid products.....all I can say is it's sharp and I like it. But....I still haven't drivin one and not sold on the newer motor

    I certainly wouldn't buy one for the suspension, because it would likely be collecting dust in my storage unit. But the Pro name is cool in itself like the Trail teams FJ, and the cement color :drool:

    I was going to wrap my truck in the spring in Avery "battleship grey" but now it will look like I'm copying the new try pro :anonymous:

    I'll be honest, other than the stuff I just saw they are putting on the new pros. I am not familiar with the new suspension. How much would it cost to get your truck wrapped?

    The cost of vinyl, But I was trying to find an alternative because the only avery battleship grey I could find was calendar not cast. Cast is what your looking for to wrap a car, calendar will work but its life span is much shorter. I still may do it and just leave it on for a year or so.

    Do it...I'm sure it'l look great. Even if it is for a year. A cool alternative is ryno lining the whole truck. A couple guys on here have done. I think it looks cool. It does add a ton of weight though.

    I've been contemplating derping the whole truck olive drab for a while now, I think you can get plasti-derp in almost any color now too.

    I did get a "large graphic" for each side of the truck that hopefully looks good, we shall see...

    Eh I don't think I could ever rhino line a vehicle, especially on a newer vehicle.

    You should just wrap it, plastidip is neat but looks like poo after a month imo. Plus vinyl you can have gloss which is what I'm after, not matte or satin.

    Thats a nicer quality vinyl, lifespan of 7years. I would think that would be enough vinyl for your truck, no bumpers or bed cuts down on vinyl usage. Home depot sells the plastidip camo green in a 6 pack for $50 and at that price its a pretty cheap "trial run" to see if you like the plastidip or would prefer vinyl
