How to Perform the "Viper Cut" on the Front of the Toyota Tacoma

Model: Toyota Tacoma N300 - Years 2016-2026
Part: Body

The "Viper Cut" is a small cut, very popular among Toyota Tacoma owners, made on the front of the vehicle that enhances the aggressiveness of the front end. It is easy to do and has a great effect. In addition to the metal cutting tools, you need to get an edge trim that accentuates the cut and protects the bodywork, which can be found on Amazon as "CloudBuyer car door edge guards." As suggested in the video, highlight the body profile of the vehicle with body tape, then, following the highlighted profile, cut the metal part. Naturally, you also need to cut a part of the inner fender, and the free part must be secured so it doesn't rattle. At this point, just insert the trim that finishes the cut and protects it from corrosion. Glue the starting and ending parts, and the job is done.
