OK after being in Iraq for 9 months I finally went home and drove my truck and I knew it was going to be awesome but just needed to do the damn thang. Definitely exceeded my expectations. Ended up putting 1400 miles on it in 2 weeks driving it mostly locally. Before I bought the truck I had plans for it like most people on the forum here. Starting with the audio, originally I was going to keep the system within the cab and upgrade but I just couldn't leave well enough alone. So I bought a shell for the truck, knocked out the back glass and put a compression boot in. Well here's some pics....

you can get shell at any truck accessory shop, if they don't have them there they can custom order one for like I did.

how much do they run?
Mine cost $1,900. Like I said mine was made my way. Depending on what manufacturer and style you want will change the price roughly from $900 up to what i paid.

Also while I'm on the thread for exterior, I will be removing the hood and putting a hood without the scoop. The rear glass window will tied into the alarm so it locks and unlocks with the doors. So if there are some local guys that want to buy hood it's up for grabs. Here's another sweet pic I thought I should add.

That's funny a guy at work just bought a TRD edition Tacoma without a hood scoop and he was wanting one but his is SWB but he still may want to buy, how much are you asking? and I will let him know.

What do you think is a good price, I mean i could check but your the man, man. I just want it to be a little different from the rest. That and it serves no purpose also makes this an easy decision.

It's going to be about 3 months before I see my truck again, maybe I can have a smoke plexiglass hood made, lol, not really. I'm also going to get some kind of paint job done to the truck, just don't know what yet. Yes it is distinctive, I think that I will like it either way and I'm sure it will be a good conversation piece.
