Paint a TRD Pro or Build TRD

Who is OP? how did that turned out?

 

Good sir, what are the 2 letters After your screen name above ^^ ??

 

You're right, I'm pretty sure I can make my car look good in the color I want instead of buying the TRD Pro and be unhappy with the color forever, I just don't know if I will be able to build the suspension to make it look with the stance I want.

 

Hahaha sorry, I don't know what that means!

 

Or just buy a 2nd gen that's already done... Like this..

Many would say it's the better truck anyways..

 

just so you guys can see, this used to be my baby back in 2010-2012.
I want something like this but in a new version, this used to be an SR5 and I built it like this (kinda sport but higher)

 

The Sports for me is pimp it, lower, 20" rims, led lights around...... Still awesome.

 

20 inch rims.... Ew...

 

Fine.. 22's then. dubs are so 2000

 

I think you want a tacoma x-runner hahaha

 

I was leaning more towards 30+...

 

Get the OR. PRO is over priced. Only pro's I see on the pro is maybe resale value.

 

I've seen off roads going for about 40, trd pros are like 43, is it really that overpriced?

 

Dubz can look good brah!

 

43-47k for a pro then add tax
37-39k for an offroad add tax
Sell hood,tires,suspension take offs get 1k+ back.
It's a no brainer. Although I'm not sure if your comment was argumentative towards my post

 

You can negotiate an offroads price down, you can't negotiate a pro, they have major mark up.

 

No, you're right, thank you for coming up with numbers, I also wasn't thinking on selling some parts.
I see you built your taco like a TRD pro looking, is yours a sport or a OR? how if your lift working out for you?

 

Yeah I bought a sport because I wanted Arb lockers for anytime use. Which cost a lot more sadly....

I've put in:
$35500 for the TRD sport 4x4 manual fully loaded +tax
$340 pro grill
$1600 rims and tires
$600 ucas
$500 temporary bilsteins/ome lift swapping to kings soon
$4500 regeared and air lockers w/compressor
$1400 skids and sliders
Next mods are leather seats, power sliding rear window, Bhlm retrofit, audio system, and kings.
I know it's a lot of money but I'm having fun making My truck.

 

Are your rims wider than the regular rims?
What are "regeared and air lockers w/compressor" for?

 

I regeared my truck because of all the added weight and bigger tires, if you don't it will feel like a powerless truck.
Air lockers are used to lock an open differential and they run off of an air compressor, but the compressor can be used for tires too

Off road models have rear locker and mts/crawl control so they have no need for aftermarket lockers, but in my opinion a regear is necessary if you want power back after installing lift and bigger tires. Regear alone is about 1500-2000
