1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Got any jobs in Texas?

 

Wow. Too bad it didn’t happen a week or two ago when they had the Toyota 25% off sale.

 

No, not at this time, unfortunately. Texas is outside of our network at this time.

 

You're probably aware of our retail outlets down your way. We are heavily involved in your area. Tucson, Sierrita.

 

Answering my own question here. @oscardog86 , @Jbhoops, @FirstGenVol, @455h0le_dachshund, @805Tundra and so many other white 1st gen owners. If you're looking for vinyl wrap that matches Natural White (056) Toyota paint, I think this gets pretty damn close. $10 for a 5ft x 1ft roll on scAmazon. Link to the product I bought is at the end of these photos; ya'll be the judge. It's thick as hell and pretty rigid, so I'm hoping it'll lay down smooth on my bumper and not give me too much trouble on the contours. Another project for me to knock out maybe this month? I've been meaning to color-match my bumper for a while and don't want to spend $233 on a pre-painted one from the fleaBay. 1st pic has th estrip on the bumper, which is where it's getting installed.

FORGOT THE LINK TO THE STUFF I BOUGHT!!

$12 VViViD+ Ultra Gloss Premium Vinyl Car Wrap Film (1ft x 5ft, Gloss White)

Yup. 216k

 

Close-ish... Close enough for me lol

 

Yup, they're not universal dude. That's why I was having a bitch of a time finding blanks to toss in the Rocktrix.

 

Was that seriously $150 at the JY? I'd expect to pay, $50-60 tops?

Props on getting it fixed so fast. What a PITA. Internals are like a tape measure, sounds like it pulled free at one end, or snapped entirely.

 

LMAO! I just had to stop and think. This is a true, native Texan speaking. There is nothing outside of Texas for you guys

I mean this most respectfully, of course. You guys are always easy to spot

 

if we dont leave, we dont have to be on the news.

 

Everything is more expensive in Cali lol.

 

Yeah but I've seen people fit these caps in SCS, Level 8, maybe a few others.

 

Well, why would a native Texan leave Texas? There isn't anything outside of Texas! The rest of us are just your bitches, am I correct?

You're making me want steak. Good steak.

 

some of that 'not for sale' meat?

 

You put that on the bumper and you will never know its different at all, nice match I say

 

Just curious, why did you need to vinyl wrap your tailgate?

 

And @BroHon!!

 

Crap. Two inches of snow tonight and it’s Saltapaloosa out there. Road is coated more in salt than snow.

 

Well that proves it matches well. I had to study the pictures a few times before I saw the strip. Color matched bumper will be nice.

 

Move

LOL, I felt left out, invisible


She was superwhite this morning!

 

Not sure I want to be there when you guys run out of fresh water or it goes sky high in price.

 

We’re close…..

 

Hopefully, when Cali builds its desalination plants it won’t be an issue for a long while.

 

We rarely see snow in GA unless you're in North GA and it's still not that common to stick for a while. I went today from a jacket and beanie to just my shirt and now back to a jacket and a beanie. It was a high of 52 today.

 

Not going to happen. Our huge reserves are underground and rational minds on the subject will win out.

 

Had to turn on the AC the last few days

 

Got the power brick wednesday. It booted up and connected.

So I went ahead and got mats ($9) and fine point blades ($12).

It works. I think the card stock I used is too thick for the blade, but it definitely works like a champ. Last I checked, Cricut sells these in similar quality for $179 before tax/ship. Or with the essentials bundle (blades, markers, mats, etc.) for like $319. I'm in for $120 total.

Guess I'll go get some vinyl and transfer sheet now, and see about cranking out some stickers!
