    Plan for the weekend for my Tundra.
    - Plastidip my corners
    - Lay in my anti-dust door inserts
    - Install S&B CIA
    - TRD Tacoma shifter mod

    All of that went pretty well. Then last night I was going to pick up dinner. My foot slipped off the brake when I was backing up in my yard and I hit a tree. Broke my taillight, bent the bumper, bent the rear quarter, dent in the top right rear corner, dent in my tailgate and tailgate won’t go down. So pissed as I can only blame myself.

    Wow that plasti-dip job looks superb. Can you explain your secrets? I have MGM one too and I really hate the chrome.

    Sorry bro. Shit happens. I almost nailed a yellow pylon at a parking lot yesterday. Didn't see it as it as covered in snow and wife screamed at me to turn. I ended up going over the divider but was able to avoid the pylon. So shit happens. Hope you get it fixed ASAP.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Sorry brother! That’s sux! Foot slipped off the brake? It could have been a lot worse but I know how you feel. We’ve all done super stupid stuff. Your bumper doesn’t look too bad, might need a new taillight though.

    On another note, what/where did you get your blue rubber inlays that you’ve put all over the interior of your truck? Any links?

    LOL! I was using the old plate for a sharp edge to cut in the plastidip area that pulled away when I removed the tape. Just left it there so I didn't scratch the truck little did I know...

    Thanks, it was the first time I used it. Really happy with the match. I've seen other threads that had anthracite as the match to MGM. But did not see anything with this color. I did the standard black platidip as the primer and then the graphite. Used about 3/4 of a rattle can total on all 4 corners and a total of 1 1/2 cans of the Graphite. Not bad for 26 bucks.

    State farm well see how it goes.
    Yes the bottom of my sandal had silicone on it from cleaning and slipped off.
    I got them on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07KBS5RH1/ref=sspa_dk_detail_2?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B07KBS5RH1&pd_rd_w=8cxdq&pf_rd_p=733540df-430d-45cd-9525-21bc15b0e6cc&pd_rd_wg=8BuAS&pf_rd_r=WV7JNP5FXVG8N700QV7V&pd_rd_r=bc9c92d9-3952-11e9-a50d-573433851930
    There are a few different options. You can get everything in Red easily on amazon. I wanted blue so the link above was the only one I found with blue.

    I hate that for you.

    Burn that tree. In the plain view of other trees. Let the precedent be sent if you jump in front of a Tundra backing up. Burn it to the damn ground!

    Sorry to the OP for his bad luck....

    Dude...it happens...to everyone...
    Spent 5 years restoring my 1969 RS SS Camaro (04-09)...one of the first trips out I checked my blinds spots and still backed into a flag pole...in front of hundreds of people at a car show....over $500 in damage in just parts/paint.
    Hang in there, brother...
