What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

They do but the tint is precut to a certain width. It would take some good skills to manually cut that piece straight.

 

I've never had a shop tint beyond that line.

 

It definitely helps....I love mine.

 

St Pete area here......we will look for you around November lol. The heat so far this year is rediculous and the below average rainfall and lack of storms isn't helping.

 

Took almost 3 months to deliver but finally received and installed! people who steal shit suck!

 

Every shop I’ve had do an eye brow has gone below that line even though I’ve asked them not to.

 

Yea I looked at them. Thinking attitude black match, but doing it in stages. Appreciate the info! One day we’ll get finished with it all haha

 

Before


After Eibach 2.0’s, SPC’s, RAS and 295/70R18’s. Was gonna install the Coachbuilder +2’s but my factory shackles are seized on, so extra turns on the RAS lol. Probably gonna crank up the fronts another .5” or so. Overall, very happy.

 

Towed the camper for the holiday weekend.

 

X2

 

Bought 2 pairs of S2 Sports flood pattern for the Tundra, adding to the list of lighting that I need to install yet have not.

Thanks @memario1214!

 

Just finished round trip to Yellowstone/Grand Teton towing the travel trailer most of these miles. RAS upgrade was awesome and worth to cost and effort to install.

 

Looks great! Did you put on the rear Eibach shocks as well?

 

I finally got my truck looking the way I wanted it to. Window tint, black wheels, black out emblems, body colored mirror caps, TRD Pro black tipped dual exhaust, TRD shift lever, LED interior conversion, LED fogs, TRD Pro LED headlights, unique smoked LED tail lights and the body colored “Chrome Stoppers” kit to get rid of the front chrome. I may black out the shiny chrome in the interior next….then I will be done!

 

What mileage did you get on your 3800 mile trip?

 

Horrible! I didn’t track it closely and never hand calculated it. The worst mileage I saw on the computer as a low of 6.5 mpg when I was towing in a headwind in Wyoming but most of the time is was between 8.5 and 9.5 mpg mostly towing in S4. I actually saw the best mileage I have ever seen (17.5 mpg) when we were driving around the parks without the trailer at about 45 mph.

Note: Trailer is a 21ft box, 25.5ft overall, about 5,500lbs loaded.

 

You will never be done lol. 3 years on mine an still not done.

 

This.

 

Could not help but notice that open electrical panel in the background.

 

I tow a Lance 2285, 23’ box and almost 28’ total length. The loaded weight is about 7,000. Your mpgs are reflective of mine. We haven’t made any out of state journeys but towing to our favorite campground which is 40 miles of flat Ohio roads we get 9.5 in S4 and the tow/haul activated. And I have achieved 18mpg without the camper at legal speeds (60-65) but perhaps had a tailwind. My truck is 2wd with E rated K02s which are heavy tires. Your 6.5mpg stint probably hurt like heck….

 

Gas bill for the trip was the most expensive part. Luckily gas in Texas and Wyoming is pretty cheap compared to other locations. I spent more on the higher octane in New Mexico and Colorado even though the science says the 85 octane should perform like 87 at the higher elevation.

 

How did the bumper end covers go on? Any issues? Was the wait time crazy?

 

I did the Chrome Stoppers bumper caps, grill surround and hood bulge. The bumper caps and and grill surround fit flawlessly. The hood bulge gave me a little grief because it took a little effort to push it to line up across the top. The dry fit in their video takes virtually no effort to line it up, so I was concerned. The guys at Chrome Stoppers were very helpful and the final install went well after a little coaching from them. As far as wait time…I received everything in 2-3 weeks when I was originally told it would be 6-7 weeks. So that was great! I forgot to mention that the bumper caps pucker in a little around the parking sensors. And after the install my passenger side sensor was going off intermittently. Someone on this forum awhile back said to make sure they are pushed in all the way. Mine appeared to be but I pushed it in as hard as I could, drove the truck and the sensor is working fine again. We will see how long that lasts.

 

Finally starting to get rid of the Chrome...

Went from this:



To this (Treasure Coast Toyota had them in stock and shipped to CA in 2 days):

 

Washed her up before the sun hits today. Turtle Wax products for the win. Aerospace 303 for the interior.

 

Super upset at myself.

Curbed one of my brand new Method 305NV rims with the matte black lip. I'd like to possibly buy a new one. Wondering if anyone has experience or know if you can buy a new lip only, are these removable? They appear to be so.

If I have to remove and repair it? How do I repair curb rash on a lip piece? I'm thinking I could remove it, sand it down and possibly repaint it with store bought spray paint but I'd rather have it restored to nearly new or brand new.

 

Where did you get the headlights from?

 

unfortunately that's not a removable ring.
here it is straight from Methods website

 

Hey, another Lance owner! We’ve got a 2185 that we’re going to be pulling. I’m going to be installing the Roadmaster kit tonight, and we’ll see how the package works. I’m not looking forward to the mileage when we go through the Rockies…
