    I think it doesn't look bad at all especially since you have the black grille to match. Only thing I would be concerned about is how much light are you loosing.

    You should easily be able to get around paying that BS restocking fee since they sent the wrong item. Paypal buyer protection claim will fix it.

    Foglights are such a big aesthetic and purposeful upgrade. Looks awesome and proper dirty!

    Dang that looks stupid clean, love the color match and LEDs.

    I would've probably asked for an exchange for the item I purchased. It doesn't look bad, adds alot of contrast. I would be worried about light output myself more than anything

    Added some 3M sound deadening material to all 4 door skins, rear cab wall and floor in an attempt to make the Taco quieter on the highway. Also added cotton pads in the cavity's around the seatbelts inside the B & C pillars and the interior trim panels. It works pretty well in noise reduction, what really surprised me is the the improvement coming from my audio system, the highs and bass are so much cleaner and tight. Next is dropping the headliner and adding pads to the roof. Worth every penny IMO. As an accidental bonus the doors have a nice thunk when closing now.

    Added some 3M pads around the center console.

    I think we are saying the same thing?

    @andrewiniguez here is a great thread on the topic. @crashnburn80 has done extensive light testing on all fog lights stated as SAE compliant. The conclusion is that the ones you have are not compliant, a potential danger to other drivers, and should not be used as fog lights. However, for offroad they'd be great. Start here and go back for discussions, testing, reviews, etc on your lights.

    Well we started this today, only spent about 2 hours on it so far, but got the bed sides welded up, will do sandwich plate for bed tomorrow and clean up/grind/smooth out welds! This 10inches should help with departure quite a bit.
