Why Not Taco 2017 I4 2wd SR

Hey all,
I’m Zac and this is my 2017 SR the day I bought it, in April 2018.

I’m a pinstriper/ custom painter by trade so this will be much different than most builds on this site. I’m only just beginning as well, there is so much more I have planned.

First thing I did, was pinstripe it of course. Added a decal of my logo, built the design around that and filled the TACOMA letters with matching colors.

I’ve since added my phone number and will eventually get my Instagram handle on there as well. This is mainly an advertisement for my business.

Since then I’ve purchased a Bay Area Metal Fab Recessed grille insert, which I had to make match. My idea was to splatter paint the backing plate with the colors of the pinstriping to make the “TOYOTA” lettering pop a bit more. This consisted of literally just slinging a loaded paint brush different ways trying to get an even and interesting distribution.

Wheels and tires were next. Went with 17” Method 315s in machined aluminum w/ clearcoat, wrapped in 265/70/17 Ko2’s for the time being.

Tint: the truck came with no tint whatsoever so I had 15% installed all the way around (except front windshield of course)

Removed: air dam, sticker pinstripes, window accent vinyl.

Next mod:
King shocks/ Kibbetch UCA’s/ Icon leafs.

 

Looking good man!

Keep up the good work.

 

Thanks man! And will do! Just need to let the wallet recuperate a little haha!
