New Mexico Owners BS Thread

anyone with a 12+ taco (white) interested in swapping their scooped hood for a non-scoop?

also any interest in a 2nd gen + Smitty built defender roof rack?

 

I got excited for a second thinking that you had a scooped hood and wanted a non scooped hood.

 

i got excited that i had a quoted reply and reloaded haha guess we both jumped the gun, nice bumper work btw, also where did you get your retros?

 

I built the headlights myself. I was a little nervous at first but it ended up being pretty simple. I've done two sets now. And thanks on the bumpers. I would really like if I could turn it into a full time gig around my FD job.

 

How much to do a set of retros? I'm still debating on whether or not to go with an aftermarket bumper, on my last taco I had a relentless fab one... But I'm really digging the stock one this go around.

I'm swapping out a color matched grille well taking a break as the wind picked up, but that elusive hood scoop!

 

I don't trust myself to do retros for anybody else. Luckily they were both my sets so I didn't have to worry about messing up somebody else's stuff.

The colormatched grille was one of my first mods along with the grillcraft insert and fj badge. And I've been looking for a hood to trade as long as I've owned my truck but haven't had any luck.

 

All done

And for anyone interested in have a stock OEM 12+ grill $75

 

^^ the new grille looks great.

 

Thanks man all I basically did was remove the chrome and pop the color match onto my old grill with the rigid grill and light bar looks far better though and not bad for a quick evening mod

 

got these in the mail today....

 

Can anyone recommend or know someone that can paint a hood and bumper fillers to match my truck for 200 hundy or less? Maaco wants 350 and just can't afford that and also want it to last longer than a rattle can will

 

try superior customs off texas and central, repainted my truck twice, love their work and jeremy is a awesome dude, has a KOH buggy too!

 

Oh that's right! I remember you telling me about them but forgot who you suggested. I'll contact them and see. Also would kind of like to see that buggy too

 

give him a call, hes on facebook also! idk how good of a deal he can give you, but hes my go to guy for paint work thats not breaking the bank, he also fixed my cab when i rolled the truck, ive only seen pics of his buggy but its a legit one ready to go with all the goodies lol

 

dang it, Ive always wanted a shell.... Id pick it up in a heartbeat if i had the funds. i just don't have a grand to throw out there right now... and its perfect cause i have an MGM and short bed too...

 

I like tools and guns!!!

 

don't have any tools to trade just basic hand tools, and i won't give up my guns either haha all i have to trade (which isn't much) is factory size yokohama tires with about 45% give or take tread life

 

probably going to be putting out a feeler to sell my truck guys... Let me know if anyone is interested... its a silver 07 sport access cab 4x4. 106k miles appox. Brand new fox suspension with 500 miles on it... fox 2.5 DSC with all pro UCA's up front and fox 2.0's with all pro expo springs and timbren bump stops witu u bolt flip kit. 3k in suspension parts. This is my DD and has been since 2007. I am the original owner and have done all the work on this truck and has been well taken care of.

I hate to get rid of it but due to family expansion i am probably going to have to sell it.. PM me with any questions about it. I havent decided on a price yet but pm me and we can discuss. Interested in trades as well.

 

Hey guys, I have 2013 single cab and was wanting to put on a Flowmaster 40. I was looking into AAA mufflers over off rio grande area. Have you guys heard any reviews on them?

 

I haven't heard of them but I went to sandia muffler on central and they do great work! I will always recommend them to anyone. Very nice and get things done right.
