    Hello Tundra Forum, new to the site but not new to being a tundra owner. I have owned 6 tundra's all of which I have modified in same way or another. This is my seventh Tundra; 2018 CrewMax SR5 TRD-OffRoad in Cement grey, and I am pulling out all the stops on this build. I joined this forum to get as much info as possible on modifications and aftermarket accessories, and any tips that I can pass on myself, as I have done all my own work aside from the alignment and tire installation.

    Not Yet, It's on it's way from Camburg, will be here next week. Last one that they had until fall, I'm putting the RIGID Adapt 30" Light on it as well as 2 RIGID 178513 diffused 10" Spector lights so it should turn night into day on any trail, I'm considering a fog light adaptation, maybe a flush mount Rigid light, but may need to have that custom made and then Cerakote the whole Bumper. I like the RC DIY front bumper too, but don't know any good fabricators and how much they would charge to assemble the thing because it has to be welded and Cerakoted, and I'm not a fan of the RC winch. I like that he Camburg Bumper is all Bolt, accommodates the Warn Zeon 10S Patinum winch, and still allows me to use my TRD skid plate that I had to custom modify to fit over the Differential drop and it allows for the use of my sensors. I plan on doing the rock lights underneath as well.

    wish I had pics to post lost em all in a computer death a quite few years back prior to cloud computing, was driving a Lexus for the last 6 years so was spoiled as far as Luxury items inside the vehicle , miss my push button start and key fob entry too. I really wish I had pic of my first TUNDRA back in 2000, first to lift the truck in San Diego with customized coil overs custom CV boots from Australia, weld race wheels it was a beaut no smartphone back then to shoot photos. Maybe the guys that use to own 4 wheel direct back then have photos of it, because it was awesome. I will have photo's up soon, just need to install the bumper next week and lights. Otherwise it's coming along beautifully
