What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Who in their right mind would steel a Dodge?

 

Probably someone needing parts for their pos Dodge lol.

 

Maybe its not actually what 3M is... I just meant wrapping the new pieces in some kind of protective film to protect from bugs/rocks. I'm just paranoid because my old truck's front of the hood was just hammered with gravel pocks and I'm wondering what I can do to prevent my new truck from getting that way too (its getting a grille swap on day 1)

 

Ah, gotcha. I haven’t heard of anything. I just swapped mine and the old surround was by far in the worst shape of the three pieces. Maybe someone makes a clear vinyl you could try that on surround and bulge. Then when it gets beat up just peel it off.
At the end of the day it’s still a truck and it’s gonna get some dings.

 

Hah, my husband claims it keeps me out of trouble. No idea what he’s talking about.

 

Lol....

 

That's a clean thundercloud Sport 3rd gen! I just sold my '02 SR5 a few months ago. Didn't get driven much anymore and I like having the space in my garage. I got top dollar for it, $11K.
A clean 3rd gen is hard to find.

 

Where or ow did you get the TRD Shift knob in Blue???

 

Ripped apart my rear bumper to get started on my BSM/RCTA install. You can’t fully remove the painted bumper ends without fully disassembling the bumper (which I didn’t want to do), so I had to work carefully in the little gap I could make by prying them outward.


I built a new harness from scratch for the bumper to hook up the BSM monitors and that is complete. Still need to make up a harness from the bumper to the engine compartment, but that should be the easy part.

 

Did you get the tri-color emblem from Amazon? I'm wanting one with the standard yellow, orange, and red but the reviews are all over the place.

 

I ordered this one. It's nice and it's 3d. Good reviews, I'm very happy with it.

It’s a Tacoma pro knob, and TVD vinyl has a kit that covers the red “boomerangs” and tiny TRD inserts for it. Basically any color you want! Install is tedious but worth it.

 

Late post but got my MX4 bakflip installed a few days ago and got my Valhalla's cat shields in the mail. Will be installing soon!

 

Yeah. Do it! Love this mod.

 

Thank you sir

 

Exactly what I want. What panel is that?

 

Many Thanks. Yes, many beat the crap out of these things so good ones are few and far between. Man, $11K is top dollar for a 3rd gen. T4R! It must have been a beauty and hope you don't regret letting her go . I bought this Sport SR5 in 2015, gave it to my daughter, and now I've got it back. Next on my list for this one is a lift and new suspension...after I fix the P0440 code. I had a '98 and also another '02 before. Really love these Yotas and think the 3rd gen. body style is somewhat timeless. Shame Toyota had to move away from this platform to make it larger (and probably for safety reasons too). I'd bet if Toyota built these again they would sell like crazy...but then again, there's plenty of good candidates out there for restoration.

 

Added Bilstein 5100s and a rear block to my Platinum. Also threw on my new to me Method NV305s with Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws 295/70/R18s.

Completely changes the truck! Old wheels and tires are for sale BTW!

Before


After

 

I'm waiting on my new '21 to come in. Does anyone know if the interior bulbs are still the same that they've always been? Wanting to get some orders in for stuff I'll need and just wanted to make sure. I dont see why they wouldn't be the same, but you never know, ha.

 

Yes, I got it from Amazon:

$19 Tri-Color Grille Badge Emblem Decoration Accessories Car Truck Label Fit for Tacoma 4Runner Tundra Sequoia Rav4 Highlander (White, Gray, Dark Gray)

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08JSY3ZCM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8

And yes the reviews are all over the board but I'll bet these are all coming from the same factory in Guangzhou. Mine seems like decent quality and it fit fine on the older PRO grille. Time will tell...

 

Yes, they are the same

 

I have really been struggling on whether to get these or the Sumo Springs. Why did you decide to change? Hows the new ride feel? Have you towed with it yet?

 

Very nice! How bad was it? Any tips? Was kind of worried about it with the new straps and all. I have mine waiting for me and have not even opened the box yet.

 

My 2020 came with LEDs on the interior. I would see if your is arriving with them already.

 

Thank you sir

 

Doing a test print in PETG now for my Dual Outlet Center Console plate, but decided to play with other options. If everything fits, I'll print out the other "Tundra" and "Toyota" variants to see which I like best. Printing in black, this is just how my laptop does preview images for each.

Once I know these are working and fitting well, I can share the .stl files here so anyone who wants one can print or have them printed out.

 

I vote for the Tundra.

 

I’m in for a blank one if you will be selling.
