What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

where did you get those rear bumper led lights ? and how and what? AWESOME! Info please

 

Totally agree. Lol i was just sitting here half asleep (cuz i am gettin old) ...and i was like hey i know a product that works for plastic. I definitely think that wax addict is more versatile. Im gonna check that out.

 

Thanks Greg. U can check out my build thread for all the info u seek plus more. To answer quickly if u dont feel like getting all the info. They're baja designs squadrons. I cut them into the black plastic part of the bumper. In the build u can see pics for exact placement. Hope this helps. If this or the build don't answer everything u want or need, feel free to reach out. I'll try my best to help further.

 

It's definitely good shit. I found it due to other members here that are heavily into detailing. Funny u mention the being old thing. I moved probably a cord n half yesterday and split a bunch of wood today trying to play catch up for next year. It's true what they say about turning 40, it's all downhill from there. I remember when it hardly phased me. Could do it everyday and bounce back the next day without problem. I blew my back out like 3 weeks ago and feel like a Mack truck hit me. Sux getting old, I feel ur pain.

 

Used a quiver of my chemical guys goods for the first time.. butter wax is nice

 

Links to these please?

 

Good points. Keep us posted on how the paint holds up.

 

Will do. It’s harsh here in Hawaii. If it doesn’t do well I’ll sand down clean it up and use a product to get it to shine again then try a ceramic coating

 

That's a good looking truck. Looks familiar to me
This is mine the day I brought it home and now

 

I have a product right now called solutions finish. That one works great too.

I'm a big fan of waxaddict but always willing to try something new. That cowl is a tough part to keep looking good and black, the waxaddict worked the best for me thus far but doesnt last long, a month max. Not bad because something like aero303 only lasted a week or so on my cowl. I just ordered a bottle of optimum tire coating that was suggested by @War Machine. This stuff is a different type of finish that is supposed to last months, and Jason found it stands up to that claim. I will try it on my cowl and post something in the detailing forum.

I think he just took them off and painted them.

 

Started some of the custom interior work. Installed the AJT knobs., Wrapped the lower console in 5D Carbon. Same material/ color I used on the steering wheel last year (below). Def. the most realistic carbon IMO. Pattern shifts as you move your line of site.
Doesn't lay as well as Oracal or Sott, but not having any complicated curves, everything laid fine with a little heat. I'm pleased with how everything came out.
More to come...a lot of ideas in mind/progress.

 

Lookks great. Sheets don't come big enough for one piece?

 

No...I've got a 5' roll of the stuff. I was going for the bi-directional design. Inspired by the hyper-car carbon designs of Konigsegg and Pagani (below).
I've got some other carbon I'll use on the other parts of the dash. I'll have opposing directions for driver and passenger sides respectively. Since this is the center-most piece, I decided to have this design meet in the middle.

 

Nice! I see what you did now...Great work on taking a different approach.

 

Yup love this color!

I just replaced my cowl because I couldn't take it anymore.

 

I continued to de-chrome the truck. Before and after shots.

 

Easy install?

 

Love the reflection!

Sorry but I dont get it. What for?

 

Most probably no Fords. It too off road for them. Lol

309?

 

Fender guards, fill the gap so nothing gets up into the engine bay.

 

It looks nice. Whats the different with the rubber ones that we have

 

Helps keep crap out of the engine bay, my old ones are ripped.

 

Those are probably stronger and better.

 

Yes

 

I

dident do it and im guessing by all the harnesses that it was not easy

 

How do you like your go rhino rb20s? I've been thinking about getting some. Do you feel they stick out too much? I can't tell in most pics.
