    You would love my town, we literally breathe Tacoma. You cant drive down the street without seeing one.

    I think they come here to die...

    I didnt take them off. I used Plasti-dip spray. After it is done drying, it peels around the embelm.

    Search Plasti-dip and you'll find plenty of tutorials.

    You can take it off and paint it. You would need to buy some sort of adhesive to put it back on.

    T'was a pain! It probly shouldnt have been but i have two after market switches that i forgot to map. Also no one told me about the tach cable that is almost impossible to remove and put in.

    **always remember to plug everything back in! :(

    Ordered All Pro standard 3" leaf springs, hangers and bilstien 5125.

    Worst part about owning a 96 Tacoma is having to relocate the spring hangers. Should be interesting...
