    Cat shield (after reading all the posts and hearing stories). I got it done at a Toyota dealership since they had their own stock made by a local fabricator and could install same day. The service dept. had over 30 cat-less Tundras and Sequoias in a boneyard awaiting parts (months long delay). Hoping mine won't end up there :fingerscrossed: and the shield provides some good peace of mind.

    Just did this yesterday with my spare 35.
    Did you chop the brackets, or remove them entirely? I tried to bend them into the frame by using a bottle jack...that did not work so perfect opportunity to try out my demolition hammer and chisel them off entirely.

    Not the best pic but here you go. Rear cats are not fully covered but can only be cut at a steep angle making it much more difficult. Hoping that is not worth the effort.

    Finally had a chance to make some progress removing chrome. Hood bulge and surround done. Bumpers are next.

    Saw everyone doing the matte clear on the shift indicator so did that and touched up the gate and cupholder while I was at it. Looks brand new.

    Got it back from the body shop - no more deer damage.
    $5700 was the final number

    I fit the same 285/75 tire but had to grind the brackets. You just cant get it far enough back without doing that

    No - that idea has been in there since I hit the damn deer. Worst part was my SSO Hybrid bumper shipped the day after I hit it.
    Now I’m considering something bigger

    Amazon just saw this before they only had red. Now they have matte black, matches perfectly

    I removed them completely by drilling out the rivets. It was a pain in the ass. I had a few burns on my arms and hands from the dropping hot metal. I’ve seen some people cut them off flush.

    How long ago did you buy them? Just went to the AJT site and do not see these listed. Did you buy them earlier and just put them on or did you buy them lately?

    Thanks,
    Just sent AJT designs an email asking if they have any or are planning to have more.

    That silver door trim would be my last piece I have not blacked out yet in my interior. I am leaving the infosystem. Its brushed look is not as bright as the silver so it gives everything some contrast.
