    So I just bought a 2002 DC and for whatever reason the trim piece under the driver-side headlight is missing. What is this called and where can I buy one?

    And yes, I will post some pics soon enough. It is completely stock but I am super excited about it. This is my first Toyota vehicle. Only has 47,000 miles on it. Paint is a little dinged up but it is almost 10 years old, so that is expected. Thanks for the help!

    Yeah, I asked this same question when I was looking to buy one of these trucks because so many of them had those pieces missing.

    You will have to paint it to match the color of your truck because they do not come painted, as already mentioned.

    I was about to ask the same thing. I just lost one on my last trail run.

    Is there a way to make sure they don't fall out?

    Awesome, thanks guys. I will have to get one of those. Any place in particular you recommend getting the same color paint? Any auto parts store?
