    Working On It
    Hey Everyone,

    Im a new owner of a certified used 2015 Tacoma Access Cab TRD Off Road 4x4 in Pyrite Mica with 16k miles. I love this thing. I was looking for a long time for a great Tacoma and I think I found it. Zero rust, no dents or scratches, this thing was garage kept and babied. I bought it at a Toyota dealer in Tennessee and drove it home to New Jersey.

    I bought it on Friday Dec 14 and already did these upgrades/mods

    A/C Knobs
    Weather Tech liners
    Weather Tech headlight film
    Tailgate antitheft by SaBell Co
    Trailer Harness relocator by Diaz Fabrication
    Sly Bracket front license plate holder (no front plate in TN)
    removed all emblems & stickers

    MODs I have planned:
    17in TRD 4Runner rims Grey (I have a hook up at toyota, not buying from Amazon, link is for reference)
    $1,160 TOYTOA TMS TRD Metal Gray 17 in Wheel PTR20-35110-GR Set of 4 FJ 4RUNNER Tacoma
    https://www.amazon.com/TOYTOA-METAL-PTR20-35110-GR-4RUNNER-TACOMA/dp/B00T83316K

    265/70/17 thinking about the KO2s - but heard several issues about balancing - so Im open to suggestions.

    Bullet Proof Fabrication front grille with Toyota letters
    Bullet Proof Fabrication Toyota letters - might mount those to the rear tailgate
    waiting for a sale on this, or i would have ordered them already

    Bed liner paint the chrome side steps & rear bumper.

    On order:
    Bed Mat, Bed Step, Spare Tire Lock

    Im also thinking about doing a remote start. Im trying to find a system that I can use my factory fobs. Thats also easy to install with not doing a lot of damage to the wire harnesses. I see a lot of systems have plug and play harnesses for other cars not the Tacoma (correct me if Im wrong). Anyone have a suggestion to a system they like, was looking at Vipe, Excalibur, Compustar systems.

    Thanks to everyone on this forum for their posts. They have been very helpful. Im hooked to this forum, Ill admit Ive been on this forum everyday, almost every hour seeing if anyone posted anything new.

    The last thing I want to say is thanks to my wife too. She lets me do whatever I want, and supports me the entire way.

    Ill be posting as I do more.

    Thanks everyone,
    Francesco
