    This is my truck right now, I am going to be lifting it via 5100's getting new rims and tires plus dual exhaust.
    I am still deciding whether to look for leather seats from another tundra or go with Kats covers, but the fact that they are over $1200 for the cover makes me think i should buy real leather tundra seats from a wreck if i can find them.

    I am trying to keep cost down, please have a look at my links and tell me if there are better options.

    this is on the maybe list but unlikely due to cost.

    Katskinz are real leather replacements not covers. Love mine, don’t hesitate to do them. The higher priced ones are made from higher grade leather. I went with Tuscany leather with gator inserts. 41F2BF61-48D7-427A-8A2D-516FA0356150.jpg

    The kats are real leather, and are not covers. You'll remove your cloth seats and replace them with the katzkins. They are very good quality, possibly better than the OEM Toyota leather you'll find. You can probably find a set of the kats for under $1k if you shop around and DIY installation. Then again you may find used full power OEM Toyota leather seats for less.

    A bit silly on the wheel and underbody lights... I thought the Fast and Furious crowd died out?!

    Im interested in seeing how your rig comes out. It hard to get an idea on how to do a Nautical Blue Tundra

    Oddball......You might want to check out AutoAnything.com for some of those items and get best pricing from @eccracer104. I would stay a million miles away from CARid.com. I ordered my fender flares from them. CARid is based out of Jersey. Within 24hrs of placing my order with CARid I had two unauthorized ATM withdrawals for a total of $160 at two different ATMs. My bank traced the withdrawals. Turns out the ATM locations were near CARid. I don't believe in coincidence. Especially in Jersey. Just sayin.

    The basic Tundra Katzkins are $550 and eBay periodically has 15% off. The perforated leather and specialty/custom ones are more.

    If you’re thinking of pulling out the seats and replacing them, you might as well reupholster the existing ones for less with better quality and new leather. You can even add seat warmers (and coolers if perforated).

    It’s your chance now to customize the leather if you want with the look of a factory install because Katzkins are made over OEM molds.

    WOW, those look awesome,thnx for clarifying that they are not in fact covers.

    I decided to have a little fun :)

    I chose to stick with chrome because I already have a lot of it but it also helps to make the blue a little brighter when contrasting the chrome, if i were to do like everyone else and go matte or dark (handles.mirrors,rims,bumpers etc) it would make the blue look even darker like a navy blue.

    thnx for the heads up Wolf, I definitely don't need my credit card number floating around.

    Funny thing, I also live in Shitcago and got rid of all my chrome. I have some 1794 chrome rims I removed, but I should maybe keep them for if I sell.

    within the last month we had a drive by involving 3 people and one NW student killed in crossfire just 2 blocks from my house....

    As for you rims I would just sell them as you have transformed the truck to the pint they would probably look out of place now.

    I thought it would keep the criminal element away from my truck by removing them. lol not to mention that 1794 is totally chromed out.

    Do you live in West Rogers Park or something? I know of a gray raised Tundra around there that parks in a 3 flat all the time. :)
