    Hello there Ladies and Gents,

    I recently purchased a 2013 Tacoma double cab. It's the 4X4 TRD Off Road Edition. It has 15,000 miles and came with a 3 or 4 inch lift and 285/75R 16 tires. I have added a set of nerf bars, an aluminum tri-fold flush mount tonneau cover, rock/bug shield and a set of in channel rain guards.

    I am stationed at Fort Riley, in Kansas and as many of you may know, there's quite a few deer in the area. What I am interested in is a good brush guard or bull bar to help save the truck a little bit if one of those critters decides to commit suicide. I am also looking to replace the chrome grill piece with a black piece (not sure of the name, it's the chrome border around the grill itself) as the truck itself is black. I would also be interested in ditching the rear bumper (it's chrome as well) and replacing it with a black bumper. Any other suggestions as to personalization and and modifications would certainly be appreciated.

    Also, looking to protect the interior, what seatcovers/protection can you recommend? Thanks in advance for reading this post and any input you may have.

    Welcome!

    Out of curiosity, how much are you looking to spend short term? Bumpers can easily be anywhere between 500 and 2500..

    Yes,
    Welcome to TW! There are tons of mods to do. Check out the vendor list on the home page. Also, use the "search" bar. Just type in what's on your mind for a mod. Good luck!

    Thank you for the input. I have no set amount I wish to spend yet. I'm just kind of putting the feelers out there to see what's what. All info, advice and recommendations will be greatly appreciated at this point.
