What have you done to your 2nd gen Tundra today?

Put on another coat of Collinite 845. 2nd coat in about 30 days. Getting the rig layered up to last thru another MN winter.

 

Love that stuff . goes on VERY thin... love that stuff

 

Yep. And even at that rate it still feels like I'm wasting a lot. I need to find a better dispenser for it. The bottle doesn't have a limiter in it.

 

What exhaust paint did you use ?

 

Rustoleum high heat with ceramic. Also used the Rustoleum high heat primer. Covers way better than the VHT brand

 

Installed 3% tint on the all the windows with a 15" strip across the front.

 

Nice! I had an 8” on my last windshield. Haven’t installed on this one yet because I want to go bigger. Could I get a shot from the interior looking through the windshield please?

 

All my other trucks I've had a 18" strip so that's what we tried first. Had some issues with the edges wanting to pull back while drying so I went with the 15" instead. 18" would have been perfect though. Just above were I see out the windshield.

 

Nice! That looks killer, thanks. Headed to Amazon now!

 

Buellah and her new shoes, Goodyear Adventure AT with Kevlahh.

 

Awesome i see that brand with more positive reviews. Ill get that. Thanks

 

I put three coats on it all an hour apart and its smooth without any blemishes.

 

Gave her a quick bath

 

I added more Whiteness

 

I've not seen that before, doesn't look bad at all.

 

The last time I had white alloy wheels was when I purchased this Acura in 1988.

 

I recall there being a period that some referenced as kind of a euro/sterile look where vehicles were "white-out" vs. the "black-out"/"murdered-out" that has been around for a while now.

 

Ahhh, the 1st Gen Integra. I had a 2nd Gen. 5 spd. I loved it.

Are you trying to make it go slower?

 

I refinished some tow mirrors. I bought them used and they had some decent scratches on the outside.

scuffed with scotch brite to remove the shine as well as 99% of the scratches.

Used SEM automotive trim paint and they look better than new

 

New here finally figured out how to get a pic up on here

 

Wash, wax, tires, & wheels:

 

i usually get it in a hot water bath. Just a dab on the applicator.

but you’re right. It could be better.

 

New Kenwood ddx9905s head unit

 

Did the same today. Immediately satisfied with the lack of jerkiness in the 1st/2nd gear speed regime. Much better / finer throttle control.

Of note, I couldn’t find pics of the shim when I was researching this, despite numerous posts on it. So I’ll post for future users. Looking at the two pedals, there seems to physically be zero difference, especially after the shim is removed from the original pedal. Perhaps it’s just the shim causing the issue, or it is a combo of no shim and new pedal (interior differences maybe?). Install is 2 10mm bolts. Had I to do it over I would have removed the shim (flathead and needle nose pliers) first, driven it, then bought the 440 pedal if that didn’t satisfy. At least it was a $35 gamble and not $100s.

 

Had the full meal deal service done yesterday. Transmission flush, oil change, front and rear diff oil, filters etc. I was amazed at the difference the new transmission fluid made, the truck shifts silky smooth now. I'm at 90K miles, and I'm sure the Transmission and diffs have never been serviced.

 

I gave up lol getting those seats out is a pain

 

Made her a "build" page!
