What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Finally got my lift, new wheels and tires installed on Monday. I have had everything for 2 months so it was great to see what the truck looks like with everything installed

 

Thank you...We all know how much time and cash it takes to make our trucks what we want them to be...The next step is to put the 6112s on the front and see what it looks like.

 

That looks great man!

 

You have a DC short bed.

 

What kind of lift is this? looks awesome man

 

Easy as in removing the trim? Yep, simple, it pulls straight up. Wiggle something plastic under it to get it started then lift right up.

 

Not sure the series. I just told him what I wanted (Noise with no drone) and he put on a 13" muffler (I think it was 13", it could have been 14"). Anyway, she roars when you put your foot down but has almost zero drone on the highway.

 

Well, today I Plastidipped my chrome mirror caps, front bumper caps, factory nerf bars, chrome door handles, and wheels. I must say it's really not that hard. Except you have got to clean the wheels 3-4 even 5 times after a car wash. I had two wheels that were not as clean as I thought, so I have a couple of places on those two wheels that the dip is peeling in a little tiny spot. I'll have to re-do 2 wheels but now I know better how to do it. Thanks to all of you who have posted your dipped truck and Youtube videos. Here's some pics of before and after.



This was the final product. Needless to say I'm pretty happy. I think I masked way too much but I wasn't sure, so better to be safe than sorry.

 

Damn! that looks really good!

 

Thanks @Hutchj !!!

 

It looks really really good let me know how your doorhandles hold up if they start to peel you might want to try the bed armor you'll have to pop the door handles off really quick it only takes about 10 minutes to remove them.

 

I'll keep my results posted to this thread. I hope they hold up, I spent about 6 hours (start-finish) doing all of that dipping. I do have a factory bedliner in my bed and was thinking of taking it out and doing that Dupli paint stuff. Is the process the same as plastidipping??

 

Rough Country 6". no cutting of the stock frame and rides a lot better than stock

 

@driverdog Nice looking ride! Especially all cleaned up.

 

What step tubes are those, Truck looks great!

 

Looks good but I think you would be much better off just removing the parts and painting them instead of all the time spent taping everything off

 

thanks

 

Gotta risk it for the biscuit.

 

Just did mine red, very happy.

 

I finally got a chance to install my 37" Slim LED bar in the hood bulge yesterday. Best part was the light was only $68. I still had to get a relay, additional wire, fuse, and my own switch.

Here is the light I ordered.

After install.

I'll post up the full install on my truck build later today.

Took off the fender flares and put my holster in.

 

Came home, checked the mail and it looks like the wife ordered me VLed Switchback HID's for my spyder headlights. Pretty pumped to get rid of the shitty stock bulbs.

 

Installed US Paddlers Rack. Works Great!

 

Nice, Bill!

 

So I dropped off my truck for scheduled maintenance and came across this monstrosity...62k

 

Decided to paint the tow hooks and do a little mask job my skid plate and paint it as well. I never wanted thought I'd get into these tiny details but with a murdered out truck, the deep red accents make the small upgrades pop out.

 

everytime I see this thread and go to the bottom, I keep thinking the Toyota Lexus Scion special filter is a Keg... which leds me to believe someone has modded a keg to their rig, which would be pretty awesome.
