    Curious and others may also be how much does it cost to wrap a hole truck like that ? Also what exhaust do you have looks good with the duels out the back like that.

    THE WRAP WAS ABOUT $2500 AND HE THREW IN THE WRAPPED CALIPERS. ALSO CAUSE THE TRUCK WAS 11 YRS OLD HE CHARGED ME ABOUT $200 IN ADDITION TO THE $2500 FOR BODYWORK SO THE WRAP WOULD LOOK PERFECT I HAD A FEW DENTS AND ALOT OF CHIPS. SO TO ROUND IT UP ILL SAY $2700. THE EXHAUST IS A BORLA I BELIEVE WHICH WILL BE REPLACING BY KEITH OVER AT DIRTY DEEDS WHO IS CURRENTLY BUILDING MY FULL RACE EXHAUST WITH LONG TUBE HEADERS.

    mirrors came from topgearautosports.com they have bad azz lights for our trucks i also ordered the 3rd rear break light in led but you have to take down the
    headliner to install it. I'm waiting once the car comes back from the wheel shop to have my guy install the alarm and all the other interior stuff to install it. ill
    keep y'all posted when i install it.

    So today i got the truck back it took the 1.5 days to install the whole lift kit, alignment, install new braided lines and bleed brakes. the
    good new is the truck looks great in my opinion the bad i have a seized caliper which i have to replace right after getting it wrapped smh. this florida weather is killing me i wanted to install a bunch of stuff today but ill have to wait for it to dry up. the badge on the side fell off so that's what the gray square on the fender is. keep you guys posted with new mods to come. oh yeah keith from dirty deeds called me today they are starting my exhaust build the 23 of this month i think im more excited about the exhaust then anything can wait to get rid of the remaining chrome this way the whole truck will be blacked out.

    [​IMG] [​IMG] Also. Has anyone ever had their gauge hands flip back and forth. This all started when the air bypass value codes and secondary air injection pump codes came on. Some days my oil pressure gauge and the Rpm gauge would just bounce back and forth them other days it would be the speedometer gauge and engine temp gauge bounce back And forth. I still have had no performance issues. I average about 14 miles to gallon. On this 08 tundra crew max two wheel drive. I inserted a video of the gauges here if it worked. It’s crazy to watch
