WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR 3RD GEN TUNDRA TODAY?

Haha the reflection totally does

 

Has anyone bought/installed the unpainted black mustache and just left it as is? Curious to see how that looks… I have some 2K ERA paint to color match mine but almost everyone that’s complimented my truck has said they think a black mustache would look better than paint matched?

 

Leveling kit and some 35 inch Toyo AT3s

don’t be leave that bull shit lol paint it

 

Yeah gut instinct says paint it for sure, but I don’t think I’ve seen one in the raw black yet and I feel like someone on here has probably done it.

 

hoping to pick up my 22 limited in blueprint tomorrow. Some great inspiration for mods here

 

Finally had the grill surround color-match wrapped. Looks much better the satin chrome it came with.

also wrapped the satin chrome rear bumper inserts and swapped the tailgate handle with a black one.

 

Mind sharing what you paid to have the wrap done? I'm thinking about trying to tackle it myself... The rear panels for sure should be simple, my main concern would be the mustache... Also trying to find the black tailgate handle, but everyone seems to be sold out...

 

I bought the APA lunar rock wrap. The wrap was done by a fried, so I did not pay. It is not easy to wrap this, especially with APA wrap, which is a bit thick.

I would get a quote for both wrapping and painting. Painting the panels may be a great option as well. I actually have painted the lower bumper inserts and the middle panel myself.

In terms of the tailgate, I would just place an order with one of the dealers. They are back ordered, but will be in stock at some point.

 

Thanks for the info... I've never painted auto parts myself so I wouldn't even think of trying that haha... But yes, I will see about getting some quotes for both...

 

Level and 35s

 

What lift and tires?

 

Just a 1.75 RC leveling kit in the front and 35in Toyo AT3’s

 

Looks good! Do you have air bags?

 

Yes I have the avs system which includes the airbags and I actually like it a lot

 

Cool good to hear. Do you have wheel spacers? I'm eying the 1794 and would for sure lift it but prefer to keep stock wheels. Also are those 12.50s or 11.50s?

 

They are 11.50’s with no spacers I’m pretty sure 12.5’s would rub on stock wheels without spacers. I love the 1794 it’s the best trim for sure imo

 

Sorry, just seeing this. Believe it was about $600 for the front and rear bumper wraps.

 

Had some fun in the truck for the first time this morning. Stock suspension w/ Westcott leaves a bit to be desired. Looking forward to Old Man Emu having a system in the next year.

 

how a Tundra should look like.

 

This is how is look with the RC 3.5 lift . Stock rims with 285-70-r18 nitto ridge grapplers. I know I should’ve went with bigger tires but ready how it sits the steering is not as smooth as stock. So I’m glad I didn’t go bigger and have stiffer steering.

 

It does fit in a standard two car garage, don’t pay attention to the messing garage.

 

Our home in Central OH has a supposed standard 2 car, but the depth is 3-4 in off from the truck fitting, and even then it would be too tight to get around it…

 

lol i have a big door and a small door garage, technically 3 car garage but its about 1 ft short to fit a tundra in. can barely fit a double cab short bed tacoma and still be able to walk around. at least my 4runner fits just fine for our winters. the spouse has to park her 2018 platinum outside during our winters.

 

3 parts for the top stache. It would take a very large piece of vinyl and some SERIOUS skill to wrap that giant U in a single piece.

 

The shop I took my truck to wrapped the whole stache in one piece of vinyl. To be honest it came out better than the smaller front bumper pieces did, to the point where I'm gonna remove them and take them back to get rewrapped. They did the front surround (mustache), the two front bumper pieces, and the two rear bumper pieces with a 6x5 foot piece of vinyl from APA and had leftovers.

 

Been thinking about doing this leveling with my 1794 non TRD. I also have the AVS and airbags and thought the RC 1.75 front lift was only for non AVS models? Also I am getting about 18.5 mpg in the city with the stock setup and wondering how much this affected your gas mileage? Your truck looks great.

 

Thanks! I love the clean and simple look. According to RC their level does not work for avs but I don’t know why they say that because it works just fine. Took it to a shop they installed within 2 or so hours. Probably could have done it faster but he took time to look at it before installing. Haven’t really had much time to drive it but most my driving is very short distances so it doesn’t really get a good reading. The actual level shouldn’t mess with gas mileage it’ll be the tires if anything that messes with it depending on how big you go.

 

Can you share the tire specs you have on your Tundra?

 

Installed my CargoEase bed slide and a hood decal today

 

Where did you get that hood decal? It looks good!
