    I have a 2013 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab Limited with a Long Bed. I plan on doing quite a lot to this vehicle. Very little with the engine. The truck is a Magnetic Grey Metallic with Leather interior.

    Things I Plan to Do in the Future:
    - De-chrome the entire truck. (Side view mirrors, grill frame, rear bumper, door handles, and new rims).
    - Take off all the logos.
    - 4x4 so possibly a front and rear locker, likely just rear. Would like to make it electric or switch oriented.
    - LED light bar or a roof rack for front lights
    - Undercarriage lights or "landing" lights
    - Backup lights
    - Hopefully a Leer or Z Series shell
    - Aftermarket Tail Lights
    - Shaded or eye-lid head lights with Halo lights
    - Tow cable, switch oriented, mounted in truck dash
    - Steel front and rear bumpers
    - Interior Underdash lights (front and rear seats)
    - Switch to shut off all electronics in truck
    - Possibly a separate battery
    - LED light bar facing either side of truck (Flood lights)
    - 3 to 6 inch lift
    - Baja racing shock system
    - TRD offroad rims and tires or Rockstar rims and dirt tires
    - Sport/Racing air intake filter
    - Aftermarket grill insert (Polished Billet Grill Insert)
    - Possibly hidden lights behind grill insert
    - Chainlink license plate frames (possibly plasti dipped)
    - Different fog-light switch
    - Passenger Eject switch (could do something, could do nothing)
    - Relocate the seat heaters and possibly replace the switch
    - Switch for backup camera
    - Tailgate lock
    - Wilson Cell Booster (Called an In Vehicle Amplifier Kit)
    - Unlikely, but Power Step system
    - Truck bed tailgate Gap Cover

    We'll see how much of this actually ends up happening. Some of it already has. My grandfather helped me take off the logos, I got aftermarket, but legal of course, tail lights, I'm looking into the parts or ways to take away the chrome, I have the chainlink license plate frames, a locking tailgate, and a 4 pin trailer hitch connecter.

    Just a little comparison from a few weeks ago to now.

    For those of you who don't know, the 2013 tacoma has the logo in the front that comes right out easy without even breaking the catches. I did it, painted it, and put it back on.
