I painted all the tailgate emblems black (I used the bedliner).






My next upgrades will include a Subwoofer with amp, a Toytec Add-A-Leaf for the TSB trucks (coming Monday), and some new tires (I'm thinking about the Definity Dakota MTs from Pep Boys).

Started adding RaamMat and Ensolyte to the doors:


Covered up the large holes with Aluminum flashing (Home Depot):

Put on the Toytec Add-a-leaf for TSB trucks:


Painted Grill Surround Silver:


Installed six Oznium LED Floodlights in the bed:


Loteck Gauge Pod with Aeroforce Interceptor scan gauge and a Whistler Fuzion radar detector.


Removed the JL Audio Cleansweep and the stock head unit and replaced it with a Pioneer PRS-880 head unit mounted in a black Scoshe dash kit.


Added an iPod adapter for my new head unit.


Added some CBI sliders:

sweeet transformation!

 

that font for the decals sure looks good

 

It does. I saw the decal on another silver trd and knew I had to have that one. Thanks!

 

nice ride and mods Rob!!!! truck looks awesome!!! the definity dakota m/t tires look awesome and have great tread too. if you get them...let us know how you like them man. i may get a set later on.

one question.......are you gonna leave the grill surround chrome, or are you gonna bedline it or paint it black?

 

Your truck is looking real nice, good job on everything.

 

Looking good!

 

I've read decent reviews of that tire. Plus it has a 40K mile warranty (which I haven't seen on a mud terrain tire). The only downside I've read is that it's a 2-ply tire (more vulnerable?). I'm also not sure if they come in 285/75r16 (I think the largest is 265/75R16). For the price though they're hard to beat. Plus, Pep Boys currently has a buy 3 get one free deal.

I'm going to paint the grill surround. I'm not sure yet if I'll do black or silver. I've thought about bedlining it too. I also have a can of silver streak mica coming that I've thought about using to try and color match it to the truck.

 

ah, cool.....the grill surround will look great either way i think man. and for those tires.....only 2 ply?? i thought all m/t tires were 6 ply??? hmmmm......well either way, if they are 2ply........i wouldnt take them rock climbing, but regular mudding should be fine. maybe they come in an lt tire size...........and those are more than 2 ply i think.

 

Good lookin taco, Nice work!

 

Seeing that Im from San Diego too, I would remember a truck like that! Sweet A$$ ride. Seriously. It's nice to see someone go the extra mile to make theirs look different in a city where a tacoma is on every other street.

 

Damn rob nice additions truck looks real sweet. but my question for you is what happened to the fj trd rims? thought you were getting those

 

Looks Great Rob!!!

 

Great looking truck.

 

Alll of the places I looked stopped selling them unless you had an FJ Special Edition VIN number. Of the places that were selling them (eBay), the prices were getting a little too crazy ($700-$800 for 4 rims). So I started looking into other wheels and found these for ~$500. Plus, I looked into them a little more and some people were complaining that they scratch up very easy.

 

Thanks for the compliments everyone. Now to work on those credit card bills.

 

Oic still good choice of rims!

 

Great looking truck!

 

That looks great!

 

nice job on the mods! me likey
