What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Are the both made of plastic? I thought $60 was a rip, until I saw how bad Suma gouges their customers..

 

Suma is expensive, that’s why I tried the tacoclout version, but supposedly the same? Idk. I didn’t like the big arrow on the Suma’s either. It’s made of plastic/glass I think. Pic is of Suma on 2nd gen

 

Nice set up!

 

Wait time is pretty long FYI, like weeks.

I just installed my Tacoma console box.

 

More than one passenger has asked why the OMG handle is on the A pillar and not over the window. I looked around but didn't find anything. Anyone added an OMG handle above the window?

 

There’s a button for $30 off…

 

Also, check different seller. Last time I saw it for $50

 

Wow! Garnish aside. Not sure I see the $525.00 difference between the two.

 

Yea I paid OEM price too but certainly don’t see the difference. If I had it to do over again I think I would go with aftermarket and save my money.

 

It's more than just lettering difference.

I've seen aftermarket grilles get sun fade / damage in a year of use vs never seeing that on an 7+ year old OEM grille. Not saying all do it but what I've seen.

 

Guess time will tell how those with aftermarket’s ones will hold up. Either way your truck will look great with it!!

 

I agree.

I bought my OEM grille in Aug 2016 when there where no aftermarket options and paid a pretty penny for it. Even if I had to do it again I'd still go OEM but I'm no garnish so will still be a bit cheaper.

 

FWIW, I'm going on 6 years with this grille. Paid $95. Always parked outside with no sun fade. Lots of time driving through brush with no damage. And another plus when comparing to other like-grilles, the letters are mounted with self-tap screws so easy to remove and paint if so desired. Unfortunately I do not remember where I purchased from anymore but must've been in the states because I do remember shipping was free and less than a week.

 

Love the step! Saved me at least once from falling backwards due to all the rainy weather we've been getting lately.

 

-Predator side steps
-tinted all windows, tinted visor on the windshield
-bed lights
-blacked all badges
-low pro tonneau cover
-bed mat
-interior weather mats
-seat covers because I have dogs
-little rubber mats for all of the cup holders and cubbies because that weird carpet stuff sucks

 

I ordered my RCI aluminum engine skid plate to go along with my already installed RCI sliders. Getting ready for summer!

FYI: 15% off all @RCI-Offroad products through April 17th.

 

So is this a deal, it’s a bit over a hour away, so I’m kicking it around, figured I would reuse my garnish.. and give him a hundred.
