My Tacoma Tailgate Setup for the Weekend with a New YETI Cooler and JBL Speaker

I'm in the middle of installing a few new things on the front end right now. Bumper, lights, winch, etc. Since you have to take a lot of the front end apart to do any of these, I decided to do them all at once. Headlights are blocked by my NYTOP flares and the plastics underneath. Seemed like the logical thing to do. These are the AlphaRex NOVA Series in Alpha Black (all blacked out, but why are the projectors still trimmed with chrome?). They also have an OG-style version that has a check mark DRL. This set has a nearly full DRL, in like a u-shape. Both look good but I think I prefer this one. https://customsunlimited.com/products/pre-order-24-25-toyota-tacoma-25-up-4runner-nova-series-led-projector-headlights-alpha-black-eta-late-aug A couple quick shots. The first one is the housing installed with all the other front end components taken off. Shot below is a comparison to my OEM ones. Below is the truck as it sits waiting for some bumper hardware... OG-style on the homie's 6G 4Runner below. It's the same headlight, in case you were curious. https://customsunlimited.com/products/24-25-toyota-tacoma-25-up-4runner-og-style-nova-series-led-projector-headlights-alpha-black?_pos=3&_psq=og-style&_ss=e&_v=1.0

This was my tailgate setup for the weekend. Since I got this YETI cooler, it's the first time I've taken it out for the weekend.

Worked great for cooling the drinks and water. The JBL speaker also added to the fun as well. A perfect combo for a perfect weekend spent with family and friends.
