    I didn't take any before pics. but it took some trimming to do it like I did. I cut all of the cross pieces out of the way and trimmed the inside bottom below the Toyota emblem and then also cut two slots for the bracket to push it forward as much as I could.

    Also, my raptor grille's lights are currently amber, but I have a friend who can print new color filters for it, do y'all think I should do white to match the DRLs on the lights, or leave the grill lights alone?

    I love my stiffeners I installed. I went with the TC's, but you can't really go wrong with any of the brands. So much more functional with those additional tie downs too.
    I have a 14' with the LED's and two of those little LED's are already out. I'd have to replace the whole tail light vs replacing a cheap bulb if I wanted to address it. I like the LED look better, but I'm actually going to replace them with the pre-12' tail light soon. Just FYI.

    Made a flat tailgate panel today. I didn’t want to spend the $200 for the ones online so I took a piece of polycarbonate (illuminated sign material) that I got for free. Traced out my old piece, added some cup holders and sprayed it with spray can bed liner. Total cost $29 and it was very easy. If anyone is local to Langhorne PA, I have a enough material to make 3 more panels that anyone can pick up.

    Because it will get seen here more, and yes I've researched it. Has anybody with a 2005-11 tacoma installed the 12-15 tacomas side view mirrors with the led signals in them? Looking for actual "What I dids" if that makes sense
