    FINALLY finished the chrome removal!!! Was waiting forever for the rough country front bumper, which was real fun to install by myself. Just wanted to share for my Tundra peeps.

    Adds were

    • Rough Country bumper with light bar and dual "fog" lights on each side
    • Painted Tow hooks
    • Raptor style grille with paint matched "teq" badge
    • Rear bumper covers
    • Rhino running boards
    • HIRev Sports LED tail lights
    • Fuel Wheels with 285/75r18 Nitto Ridge Grappler tires
    • Mirror Caps
    • Badging covers

    Definitely looks more “sinister” and less flashy. Now you need the black chrome exhaust tip.

    Alot of them
    Don't run those fog lights in traffic. They are not street legal....Mine didn't survive a day before I got a warning. Replaced them with the Rigid SAE'S. At some point you will Line-X the bumper because the powdercoat will fade and flatten out. It will get surface rust too....it will start on the lower grates.

    Thanks. I wired the light bar and "fogs" to separate switches I have on the dash. The first time I turned them on I knew that was going to be a no no. Also, thanks for the info about the powder coat. I'll keep an eye on it.

    I would have de-badged it, with body colored door handles, mirror covers and bumpers with bronze or chrome wheels.
