    Here is a sneak peek at this week's project, hopefully, it'll be done by this weekend.

    Just wanted something simple and useful, I'm still adding the Tacoma flares and trimming them to fit.

    I hope it inspires you guys to do more with your trucks and don't be afraid to take risks on doing things that you can't buy off Amazon! (... like I'm one to talk...:rofl:)

    I have matching sliders but no pic ATM...

    I'll post more after I pick up my truck tomorrow!

    Hell yeah. These both are really close to the design I've had in my head for years. Good job!

    Edit- you ran nutserts for the plate? Thats a clever move. I will have to copy that.

    Dead stock with oem 16" starfish wheels. We'll see how long that lasts. :) Topper of unknown origin.
    Super sweet! I do like seeing people make their trucks their own.

    p.s. Can I get those w/ free shipping on Amazon? :rofl:

    Looks really good. You gonna blacken up that bumper strip? It will look a lot better.

    That’s a nice rig! Bumpers make it, especially that high clearance rear!

    Yes sir! I still have the Flares to trim and fit, they will be all bed lined black to mathc at the end.

    Sadly my welding skills aren't this good.
    But we did use my ideas for the simple sliders and keeping the front bumper trim....
    Oh snd i got coffee one day...
