    Now that thought never occurred to me. But they're far less offensive than a fake hood scoop.

    Hate bead locks. Real or fake. Hate the exposed fender flare bolts too. But that’s just me.

    But we all like different things, and I respect respect those differences. Part of that makes the Tacoma collective cool is that we all take it different directions.

    There will be a time when we look back and laugh... "Remember the bronze Method phase?" For now the trend is alive and well be it a Subaru, Cummins or Tacoma.
