    Same here. Very true, I guess I meant that you can find cheap LED flush mounts to make it a $50 mod that offer the same light output as that hitch setup previously mentioned.

    I really like my TRD center caps! I can’t seem to find them on Romans site anymore. But I love the way they changed the look of my TRD wheels on the cheap.3BE8443F-266C-484E-9F80-93A5B384BB1E.jpg

    Looks good! But I was actually very surprised how cheap these center caps were. And since I got rid of the Toyota emblem on the grille I figured this was a nice complement.

    Yea they aren't too expensive. I already was into the plastidip for my front emblem, so I just did these at the same time. Makes mine unique too. I plan to do the tow hooks as well at some point.

    Where did you pick up your center caps? I've seen a few on ebay, but they were 50-75 a pop.

    I went through Roman, I prefer to give him my business as he is very active on here! Oh, and his price was the best! They are still on their page.

    I want to say they were between eight and $15 apiece. But I cannot find them on the site anymore. But I got them where Moto tundra and Alex posted.

    Not to steal your idea but I may have to do my tow hooks as well LOL. It’s the little things that most wouldn’t notice and less you’re an enthusiast.

    @Borgs painted his tow hooks up front red, which match his center caps, they look great!

    I got it from eBay. Just search toyota shift boot. I ordered a 2nd boot, that is black suede, but the material was too thick, and it just wouldn't work. Also, it looks like shit with the stock shift knob and the TRD shift knob, they are too long. So I got a 2016+ Tacoma TRD PRO shift knob.
