    Thank you sir! I haven’t tried beadmaker yet. I go through a ton of this stuff so $20 for 2 gallons is a steal. Do you dilute the beadmaker for spraying? I may try it because I’m just never happy settling with something I already like, haha.

    I know. I crashed my first one several times. Then bought one I don't want to crash. I have gotten into the trees a little bit. Still don't know how to fly it real well. Good portion of the area is off limits due to local AFB and airports. But at least this one will stop and hover if I let go of the sticks. (DJI Phantom 4)

    I'm on number four. I got great advice that you will crash and loose the first three, so dont spend a bunch of $ early on. I've only lost one so far.

    I say keep it. But that's one of those personal preferences. Look at a couple trucks that already don't have them to compare.

    I have learned... In waves just buy whatever and ask for forgiveness. Thus far it has worked with my wife. That is how tires happened for me last month

    Saw that, too. Didn’t know how much more expensive it is in other parts of the country. I guess I’ve been spoiled by the mid-two dollar range here in Texas.

    Pulled the tow hooks and painted them - trying to decide if I went too bright with the red, but it looks fine from normal angles. Seems close-ish to the TRD Pro coils.

    Now I need to find a good day to wash it, since I can see all the bug guts and bird shit in this pic...

    Are those painted bumper ends or just plain unpainted? what do your back bumper ends look like. I like the black

    They are just plastic bumper ends that match the center piece. The rear bumper is white, the way it came. They were like $76 a corner I think.

    What paint did you use to do this? I tried vinyl wrap but it didn't hold very well. I thought about hydrodipping once my new house and shop are done next month. Looking at different options.

    Sick truck man... seeing sick lifted trucks posted makes me want a big lift :(. That's a bit much to not tell the wife and try to ask for forgiveness. Tires did go smoother than I thought it was gonna go:rolleyes:

    Just gotta be happy with my 3/2..... for now
