What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Added a locking hitch pin and some cheap seat covers while I decide which ones I really want to get.

 

Installed a TRD skid, winch bumper, winch (still lacking the LED) and started cutting because I wasn't happy with it at first. Ended up with this. Little weekend project, time for a beer

 

What did you do to the liners? Been thinking of cutting mine. Just need to have a plan for the liners.

 

I cut them as high and level as I could without cutting past the clips inside.

 

Do you think there is enough left to keep mud and sand out of the fog lights?

 

Ehhh...maybe. I didn't take it all out. And on the passenger side it had vents already so it wasn't completely blocked off to begin with. Time will tell. If the fogs get screwed, well, I want to replace them anyway and will figure something out then.

 

Thanks for the info. I appreciate the help. Your truck looks great.

 

Keeping it old school

 

Wish somebody would do a TOYOTA tailgate rather than tacoma

 

Got side swiped in my own driveway. What would you do, report to insurance company, leave it as is, or touch it up yourself?

 

Depends on your deductable. Touch up paint would look like shit.

 

Was it a buddy that did it? Ask them for some cash to go fix it!

 

I'd live with it personally

 

Depends on who hit it. Newer truck, I'd get it fixed personally, especially if someone else's insurance is going to pay for it. If (like what happened to me) your wife hit it....then it might be time for an aftermarket bumper!!

 

I was thinking aftermarket bumper either way unless you like the look of the factory bumper. Sometimes the insurance will just cut you a check of the estimate.

 

Fresh wax job.

 

Not a buddy. Guy who needed a place for a while. He moved out.

 

In Florida we have 'no fault' insurance, my rates will go up even if claim is on his insurance. He has insurance. I just don't want to look at that damage....not sure it's worth it to me to have my premium increase.

 

20K self service.

 

Could always do a viper cut out of it and do some sort of bed liner roll on cover up. As someone stated touch up paint never seems to look right. Just ideas…ultimately whatever makes you happiest with your truck. Maybe the the amount your rates increase over time will be way more than if you paid out of pocket or worked out a deal with who side swiped you.
