My 2019 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport. Built over several years, documented with the same attention to detail I bring to client work. This truck doubles as a mobile studio — ProMaster light stands in the bed, shooting on back roads between jobs.

Every mod on this page was installed, tested, and photographed. Several were brand collaborations. If you're a Tacoma owner looking for build inspiration or a brand interested in a collaboration, this is the right page.

Q: What size lift is on this Tacoma?

A: Rough Country 3.5" lift with Vertex adjustable coilovers and rear leaf springs.

Q: What wheels and tires are you running?

A: RockTrix Classic Seven wheels with Falken WildPeak AT3W 265/70R17 tires.

Q: Do the Alpharex PRO taillights fit a 2019 Tacoma TRD Sport?

A: Yes, direct bolt-on. Jet black finish, no modifications needed.

Q: What exhaust is on this build?

A: Flowmaster FlowFX dual exhaust with black tips. Noticeable tone improvement over stock without being obnoxious.

Q: Is the Prinsu roof rack worth it?

A: Yes. Built solid, fits the roofline clean, and the Red Ridgeline handles are a nice touch.

Q: Do you use this truck for photography work?

A: All the time. ProMaster light stands fit in the bed, and it's been on location shoots, back road sessions, and brand collabs.
