LET'S SEE THEM SUPER SONIC REDs

i just got my22 supper sonic red TRD off road and really excited to start modifying it

 

Very nice color

 

Platinum hybrid with 6/14 build date. I’ve originally been hunting a windchill pearl but this came up first and looking forward to posting here

 

Mine should be here next month. Love that color. Congrats

 

Have had mine about 2 months. Got red a little by accident... I wanted lunar rock or MGM and had been waiting since day one...Nov 1st. I was waitlisted at 5 different dealerships in CA in NV. March 19th I swung by the local dealer to schmooze and lo and behold, a red limited DC TRD OR was sitting inside the showroom! Turns out it had just come in the night before and that morning the guy that had been waiting for it turned it down. By the time I got back from test driving it there were two or three other buyers standing by with checkbook in hand. Never thought I would own a red vehicle... but I did the deed. Since then I have been working diligently on chrome delete and am really starting to like the red/black combo. Here is the thread I started on chrome delete.

Also have added a Retrax cover....

Right now the truck is sitting in the garage with its mustache out at the paint shop. Hoping I can reassemble this weekend. Other parts on order.

This is the look I am shooting for (picture from some Canadian website, I don't remember which)



and this is what I started with:

 

Welcome! Congrats on the truck. You’re going to love it.

 

Congrats and welcome! Great choice on the color. I wasn't a fan at first but I love it now! Will look even better with the chrome gone. I'm slowly working on it.

 

Damn yours is not making me regret reserving a red. Can I ask how much it cost to paint the surround? And did you order new surround pieces or paint the chrome?

 

What did you do for the fender flares?

 

325$ it was a wrap.

 

Was it at a shop or do you have a link to the material you used?

 

I am keeping the fender flares black as they came from the factory on my Limited. They are flat black.
I had not even noticed the Canadian SR5 in the photo I posted had red ones! I like the black with red... no problem with that.

 

It is 3M vampire red. It's a satin finish. The red color is a damn close match but the satin finish does provide some contrast.

 

Bath time....

 

Nicely done.^^

It is now a Limited in SR5 Disguise!

 

Love this color. Really changes depending on the lighting.

 

My SR5 I got at the end of March.

 

All of these trucks look great!

I’m happy with my MGM, but I’d be happy with the SS Red as well. Might’ve been first choice, had I seen pics before committing to mine.

 

This is my SS TRD Sport in my favorite form, loaded down with kayaks. This is my first truck in 18 years. I traded a 600 whp 2014 ZL-1 for it. It is no where near as quick as the ZL-1, but so much more comfortable and versatile.

 

Ceramic tint on the front 3 windows and matched the driver/passenger side color with the rear windows. Also got her washed today so she’s shining.

 

Wow never thought I’d like red but looks great!

 

Any more out there?

 

Here’s another pic, completely stock besides roll up bed cover.

 

Got mine in earlier this month. Added a Tonneau, Bed mat, and currently in for PPF. Once back I'll add the cat shield and GoRhino RB20s. I'll post an update once I've got it all on the truck.

 

Did you have the fender flares wrapped? I didn’t realize there was a trim that came with body colored fender flares… I like that look a lot.

 

Not mine, but I know the TRD Sport trims come completely color matched...

 

Posted in the official 3rd gen thread but here’s my truck ceramic coated. Done for now and will lift when I’m ready for new tires.
