    I added these as well. It’s one of those subtle mods that makes a great visual difference.

    @Paulskie , I did some research on this since I was curious as well. Apparently coolant is run through the throttle body, not to keep the TB cool, but actually to warm it up in cold environments. If it is below freezing, condensation inside the TB can potentially freeze and cause the flap to not move, so the coolant warms up the TB so this does not happen. The problem is that the coolant constantly runs through the TB, always pushing hot air into the intake. If you live in a warm environment with the temps rarely or ever going below freezing, doing this bypass will run cooler air through the TB, POSSIBLY (though probably only slightly) increasing power, and supporting a "cold air intake" system. Power gains are completely anecdotal based on my searches; I haven't found any temp readings before or after the bypass. There are however pics of people not being able to put their hands on the throttle body before the bypass because it gets so hot with the coolant running through it, but after the bypass, they are able to put their hands on it. Here's a good thread:

    That wrap looks great!

    I installed this shifter knob, which works really well with your carbon fiber look. It feels like a high quality knob (much, much better than the stock shifter) The feel is identical to the very high quality shift on my Land Cruiser, which I think feels way better than the TRD Pro knob. When I saw the price I was skeptical. If you're considering it, don't let the low price discourage you, it really is great quality.
