    Hell all. I’m Danny from Tucson Az. I have been a long time Tacoma owner I had a 98 2wd standard cab years ago and I bought my 03 2wd extended cab new. I’ve had it all these years and have been wanting a 2nd gen for awhile now. A week ago I was hit and my poor little 03 with 229,000 miles on it was totaled. So today, I took owndership of a beautiful 2011 2wd doublecab longbed prerunner. I am coming here looking for tips and advice. I look forward to talking to you and getting good info. Thank you!

    Tip/Advice. Take the mud flaps off and plug the holes that the screws used to go into with trim panel “push pins” from autozone. Looks better and they won’t scrape on stuff.

    That was one thing I wanted to do. Those suckers are long and I don’t care for their look. Thank you!

    If I can find the right plugs I will post a pic. I did a lot of trial and error because they come in packs of 4 or something, and you need 12 I believe. Well guess what, Autozone never keeps more than 2 packs in stock! But you can ask to just pull one out and see if it fits until you find the right ones.

    In some of the holes but not all. Flappers use screws + plastic push pins that break when trying to remove them. So I just plugged all holes with one style of pin. But if you’re asking if you can reverse the “mod” then yes, you can. Just save the pieces.

    Ok cool. More thinking about keeping the other molding secured in the absence of the mudflaps. I’ll check it out.
    Thanks again!
