    One can of 11oz black Plasti Dip per rim. Opted not to use the glorifier. I used the playing card / plastic bag method of "masking" so I didn't have to take the wheels off. Playing cards were $.88/pack at WalMart (bought four packs), plastic bags were free from the missus courtesy of Food Lion.

    Finished up a lot of projects..

    Front bumper color match, rear already came color matched. Thank god because the front was a pita and I’ve herd the rear is the worst. These are OEM plastic I had a shop paint

    Mirror color match (sparks)

    Door handle color match (sparks)

    Amp running boards, I like the tucked look acts as a trim below the doors, I also do not lose and ground clearance, not that I’ll be off roading. Wife and I are getting old so the step is good. Not super hard to install but wiring most mods has it’s issues as did this one. I have a DC so I’m supposed to remove 15” off the boards I went 8 1/2” I figured I can always remove more. I’m going to tweak the fitment when I have time do I might have to remove more. Over all I like them, the lighting is nice add.

    I installed a proper holster.

    Upgraded the wireless charger with a 5 coil, much better coverage.

    All the chrome badges removed.

    This should be the last of the major mods for a while. Sure...

    To bad you didn’t live in Canada. Can’t find a decent set of used wheels for the life of me.

    She got a (loooooong overdue) 2-bucket wash at the end of the day today.

    Also got the AJT vent rings installed. Really happy with the vent rings.

    I keep looking at my tailgate, trying to formulate a plan. Those top corners are the crux. Like your solution for that area a lot!

    No pics but put in the TRD swaybar. Man what a difference $240 makes. It corners like it's on rails compared to before

    Great to hear! Was it a "job" to install? Do you use the existing linkages or does it come with "new?"

    Everything was in the box. I swear it took less than an hour and some of that was putting a couple of washers under a brake line clamp to get the line not to rub against the sway bar. Didn't even lift the truck off the ground.

    It will. I used this exact model in my prior peace officer position on a regular basis, good lights for their size and they hold up to abuse over the years.

    It is beautiful! I am thinking of the same hood protector/deflector but in chrome. Does the 3M tape only located at the area of the hood with chrome or part of painted area as well? I have not decided because I don't like the idea of having sticky tape on the white paint.

    Honestly I really don’t like it. I would much prefer the Toyota branded OEM one. It fits night and day different than mine as my dad has one on his 2016. It fits molded to the hook and twice as thick material. His holding points are much better as well for the deflector as well as more adhesive. Never had an issue with the 3M adhesive my self besides getting it off

    It comes out easy. There are a couple of clips on each side.
