Chrome delete bumpers 2nd gen

Where you able to remove the steering wheel badge ?

 

No it is just an overlay on top of the existing emblem. AJT did a great job on this one. Can’t see any chrome at all and comes with double sided tape full contact ready to go

 

Arrived and packaged perfectly.
Can hardly wait to put it on!

 

That pesky chrome just gotta go tho

 

Can’t believe I drove the truck around for 7 years before doing this!

 

Just a few more parts on the way.
Thanks Sparks

 

I did this recently too, but color matched the Toyota emblem

 

You’ve motivated me

 

Do you have a link to it? Went on their website and it doesn't show up under the 2nd gen products

Tia!

 

Looks like I got the last one for a while. Possible copyright issues not sure. I do know eBay has a couple options but can not speak for their quality

 

Got the door handles and mirror caps on.

Finally picked a method to get the bumpers done. Going with vinyl Avery Dennison Supreme wrapping film Gloss white SW900-101.

$185 each front and rear

 

Ahh...I was wondering if the color-matched grill on my truck was a mod. PO of mine also put a satin black on the Toyota logo and if you do the same, I think you'll like it. Blacked out headlights are $105 if you're interested: https://www.ebay.com/itm/For-2007-2...dlights-lamps-Left-Right-/131849261517?_ul=IL

 

Please let me know how those headlights hold up. I’ve been looking at a bunch of options. On the grill badge I’ve got 2 one white and one black. Options are open lol

 

I've been running them for a couple years now, no problem. No fading or blurry spots - and I use about the highest output aftermarket bulbs that are non-HID. I love them. Only issue I had that I don't know if it affects the OEM one too is that I ran my truck at idle for over an hour and the orange DRL bulbs melted the housing a bit so when I bought a replacement set I put LED orange bulbs in instead and they look really good. Bulbs do have a tendency to double-flash from time to time, especially the warmer it gets outside but it's worth it to me.

 

It’s a good looking truck for sure!

 

Finally got the bumpers done...no more chrome!

 

I lied one more chrome

 

Damn, and I thought mine looked good...your engine bay is spotless!

 

Technically the headlights are chrome too lol

 

You got me there...also the tail lights
I just refinished them soo prob gonna wait a while

 

Our trucks and Dunetransit look pretty much the same. We should do a white only tundra Crewmax meet haha

 

Thanks! I started today just gonna clean the battery acid from the terminals. They were so bad the bolts snapped. One thing led to another and yes new terminals and full detail under the hood.

 

2nd gen unite!

 

hi Shane I see that on the back of your truck the letters are different so you have a link as to where you got those?

 

I got them from Amazon

Tailgate Insert Letters... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08MVX3Y4N?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

 

This was the line x option? How is it holding up? It looks great! I kept looking at that picture you posted with your steering wheel wrap and it finally hit me just how different your interior looks than most tundras! You have a build page with everything you’ve done? One thing that stood out was the gauge cluster. It all looks great!

 

I had my bumpers vinyl wrapped about 4 years ago now. They have held up pretty well considering I daily 90 miles on the 5 freeway. Some small rock chips but nothing major.

The interior of most of these trucks is such a hodgepodge of colors I had to blackout as much as I could to have it appear more cohesive. I have not organized a build thread like I should have but most everything is in the “what did I do to my 2nd gen” thread. The Optitron cluster was one of my favorite mods as well as the steering wheel cover!


Some light reading that helped me on my way….
