This is my 2008 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport Super White
Here are the stock pictures the first day I brought it home.

My first change was the antenna. The stock one is about 3 feet long and just the typical skinny whip.
I bought a shorty antenna I think it looks better and it just as good of reception as the old one.

I ordered 50 Series Flowmaster exhaust. Waiting to get it put on, having some warrenty issues.

I decided to remove the emblems off the back of the truck because it looked to cluttered and there is not much chrome on the truck, seemed out of place. I decided to paint them black and only put the Tacoma emblems back on the truck, much cleaner and I like the black it goes with the rest of the truck.
Here are the Before and After pics.

Painted emblems black with Krylon Fusion black and then sealed them with auto sealer. Sanded them a little before with 2000grit sand paper. (optional)

I put the emblems back on the truck with 3M automotive double sided tape, this stuff is meant to hold the side skirts on cars, i think it can handle the emblem. They are stuck.

Here is the finished product. Tell me what you think.


When I bought the truck I went ahead and paid for the First Place Finish auto protection. It basically helps the paint not dull and there is an interior sealer they spray through out the whole truck that makes all the carpet and seat fabric water resistant. I figured it couldn't hurt.
