    I'm surprised that you found a shop that would paint chrome. Most won't attempt it.

    Check the build link in my signature.
    Attempted to get my camera installed but ran out of time and a hiccup with my planned mounting setup. Will have to wrap it up another day.

    3/1, 295 70 R18. Some Color Matching
    It's not painted chrome. The surround that came with the grill was white. New pro grills are not available with Barcelona red surrounds from Toyota. Sparks will paint the surround BR for you but that color has such a wide range of shades from the factory that you are pretty much guaranteed that it won't match unless you take steps to mitigate. I didn't want them to blend into the hood so I got the scan from PPG.

    Gotcha. I ordered the BR bulge and grille from them a couple of months ago for mine and it matched perfectly.

    New member, today I traded in the Taco and picked up a 20 TRD Pro. What a difference from my 17 Taco. So far lovin it, my first full sized and V8. Feels like a tank lol!!!
    Loved the Taco, but looking to get a small toy hauler for the motos, Taco 3k tow cap wasn't going to do it.

    Great looking storage setup. I'm looking at doing this myself here soon. Did you make yours from plywood? I love that extruded emblem look. Is that just an addition layer?

    Thanks for the info and great job again!

    I wanted to install some of my Christmas goodies, but instead my wife wanted to look at properties. At least I got to put it in 4hi to drive around some woods, ponds, and actually had some fun driving in a very sandy area down by Styx River.

    Thanks! Yes, it’s all plywood. 3/4” for the top and lids, 1/2” for the box sides, 1/4” for the bottoms. I used 1/4” ply for the emblem on top.

    Sweet. I was planning on doing it all from 1/2 and getting it all out of one sheet. I was thinking maybe an oak plywood or something with a little better structure/quality. Did you use something like that, or just regular ole pine plywood? The structure looks good and I don't want to have to spend the money if it's not necessary.

    Guess I feel super lucky that u said you would make me one before you told all these other guys you wouldn't lol.

    As always brother, great shit. Looks OEM to me. The logo and liner really set it off. Its always awesome to have something u know no one else does. Really nice man, you're a man of many talents, love your custom work.

    How did you wire the lights in? Did you tie them in to the existing bed light?

    Regular sanded pine ply. Top ply looks good is all I needed. I didn’t want to spend the cash on hardwood ply and have that top piece warp on me. It is painted on the underside, but ya never know. Only reason I used 3/4 for the top and lids is for 1/4” extra storage space, and the lids needed to be tough. Main reason for this whole setup is for my pup to be back there. 0BB0E9FE-F5FD-4F7D-B64C-8A6C238DD3B0.jpg

    The kit comes with a toggle switch to mount in the bed. I ran the switch to battery power so these lights can be turned on independently at any time.

    Congratulations! I haven’t been on the forum long but I heard the 040 Super White color is the fastest! These trucks do feel huge when you first drive but you’ll get used to it quick.
