Good news: I emailed Falken tire and asked for free stickers and they sent me all of these!

Bad news: the radiator in the taco has a crack. It needs to be replaced.

Should I consider this used one on Amazon? I think they were just returned and never used. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

It's half price and seems like a pretty good deal for just a damaged box product.

Those are so close to the cost of a brandy new radiator, don't give yourself the hassle. Look at CarID as well, they've always given me the best stuff without having to worry about the shipping.

Saving $15-25? I don't think so, not for a part like this.

It's $50 off. It's $103 new on Amazon. Ill check CarID. If i'm going to spend $100 on a radiator might as well spend $115 on a 2 row one for extra coolness.

For free too! I'm normally very conservative with stickers on my cars but the Taco is missing some paint and has a pretty nasty left front fender so I'm experimenting and going all out with the stickers.

I covered an entire helmet in stickers I begged for from different companies one summer. Still have a shit load left over.

My brother got an aftermarket for his taco, dealer was like 3-4 times the price. We both installed a mesh behind the plastic grill, since the openings in factory grills are huge. The use sand on the roads here in the winter, and those rocks bust rads and windshields. I change my windshield every year on my SX4. Still on the same rad since I installed my mesh the first year I bought it.

That's a good idea. I did notice the grill openings were pretty big. I was planning on filling some with cardboard for the winter to improve aerodynamics and to let it warm up quicker.
