    Got some seat covers on. Kind of a temporary solution until I can come up with the money for Katzkin leather covers. The grey cloth seats are a stain haven waiting to happen when you have kids. I found these on Amazon for sale for $132 on the black and grey color. Matches the interior great! The ad said it fits 08-22 tundras so I kind of knew it was a long shot they’d fit perfect. They fit well enough to use for a while, better then the Autozone universal ones. The back seat accommodates the 60/40 split but since the old rear seats have square corners there is a little dead space at the corner, not a huge deal. The material is a “soft leatherette” but is also waterproof so should protect the original covers and clean up after any spills, dirt, etc.

    Not a perfect match.. but still pretty dang close. Its more in the shadows that you can see a slight difference in color. In the sunlight its very hard to tell.

    Will most likely plasti-dip the rear bumper chrome pannels this weekend.

    Specs: 3M 2080 series - Gloss white

    Had some time tonight, so went ahead and removed the last of the body chrome.

    6 coats of Plastidip. 15-20 minutes between coats.

    To remove chrome panels:
    10mm bolt, and a plastic push clip on bottom.
    3 plastic push clips on top of chrome panel underneath the rubber step/padding that will need to be slightly raised. Lifting those up was a pain.. but you can go underneath with a pair of pliers to squeeze the clips in order to pull up.

    If i ever feel like rocking the chrome bumper again.. Plastidip is always removable.. peels right up.

    Did some front end work. Simple decals from @TVDvinyldecals. Think it ties the front end together better then just plain. Did the black out of the remaining chrome w/ OEM black out parts.
    *pro tip. Use Qtip to get them set.* from a non pro, that tried something and it worked well.

    I'd like to find the grill that has the upper DRL light.

    Tried to color match front T with duplicolor shadow chrome paint. Came out a little darker than I wanted but its ok. If anyone else tries it go 2 or 3 coats of the paint, no more. The clear coat seemed to darken paint just a tad.

    That looks nice, can't tell that it is darker. Is your tailgate handle chromed as well and if you are going to do the same, could you share a pic? Thanks!

    Tailgate handle on the platinums are black, along with the top "spoiler" portion of the gate. I'm not going to touch it.

    This looks awesome! I just picked up a new platinum yesterday. How did the 275/65s affect the handing/fuel economy? Looking at this exact tire for my truck.

    Dealer Xpress Window Tinting in Auburn, WA. Been bringing my cars there since high school. They've always been very helpful.

    https://www.dealerxpresswindowtinting.com/

    It was $189 for the two front windows. A little pricey but i wanted a professional job done. I also chose 3 tiers higher than their basic film. Comes with a lifetime warranty so if anything bubbles they'll fix it for free. I went with 25% Pinnacle Plus series and it matches the back nicely. The rear windows stock measured at 24% when he tested it with his tint calculator device. 24% is also the legal limit in Washington State, but doubt you'd get pulled over.. unless you went with 5% lol

    Yup, that was your video on YT. My appointment with them is on Thursday, looking to get all 5 windows done, maybe a fade from 24% going toward the front driver/passenger windows. Their quote to me was around $429 or something like that....maybe they do a military discount too??

    Nice! Most places do around here. I'd ask them and chances are they would. Friendly tip if you're dropping it off and waiting, walk to Doxon Toyota across the street. their waiting room is really nice.

    POST WHAT YOU'VE DONE TODAY! IT’S GOTTA BE TODAY :D


    Took delivery on St Patty’s day and have my wheels here but no rubber yet. My Limited came with bed lights that are good, but I wanted great. I wired up LED truck bed lights to the existing bed lights and BAM! They turn on when the tailgate opens, controlled by the truck bed light switch on the lower left dash, I like it. Lots of lights for when my cover comes! Easy mod.7D49EB41-FBF1-4134-B041-9DC936D10C2C.jpgEE1DD23A-2CC0-4DD6-8AFD-714C76DE65E8.jpg

    Got my new Diamondback Cover delivered today and it’s on. This is my second truck now that I’ve had with a DB and I love them. They can hold hundreds of pounds up top. This is the SE which can carry 400lbs, and the heavy duty model can hold something like 1600lbs. 24FC2459-31F7-4C7E-B852-A8BC4360F2E0.jpg26882C01-F77D-47AD-A76A-F6E39AA8573E.jpg

    I used these. I cut off all the plugs and switch that come on the LED rope kit as I just spliced into the bed light. Btw the existing bed lights are super easy to remove and access the back plug to get to the wiring. The trick is slide the whole light fixture to the right and pop out on the left side first. It’s a spring fit.
