    I definitely will... They have the color that I want I just can't remember what it's called... I saw them on another thread on here and it was with my color truck and the combo went together really well

    I think that would be the gunmetal..
    I seen one in person on a Tacoma and it looks really nice!

    I was gonna pull the trigger on these.. I thought they looked really nice for the price.

    @csuviper haha :spy:
    this and the taco is a toughy.. Really want to LT both trucks. but wallet saying no.. and wifey definitely saying no.
    As much as I want on the Tundra, I don't think i got the webos to cut it up.. at least not yet.
    We'll see. Getting it ready for a trip this September from San Jose,CA to Sedona,AZ to Moab,UT then the hoorah @ Vegas.
    Been thinking about a cover. But the one I want is almost 3k. lol.. Quality part though.

    I got the opportunity from HIDExtra.com. It was a 32" flood/spot combo with harness.
    Its almost been a year, and its holding up really well.. Got a little bit of condensation, but over Light output is still good..
    I'll probably upgrade to there newer version in the near future. And maybe upgrade the size. I'll post my DIY I made for them on here in a bit. I should still have the files.

    Nice to see another white pro! Love the retros too, after my Tacoma I really considered doing the all chrome bowl and shroud OEM look. You made things super difficult for me now haha

    muahaha!Hey Stefen, the one you had on Rinzler were pretty bad ass..
    If I went back and did mine I would've done the FXR or the LS460 projector.
    But if you did black out the bowls I would do like Rinzler's, maybe a matte housing?

    But check this out if you wanted to play around w/ that sidemarker reflector, smoke/smoke/amber/clear.
    http://klearz.com/products/toyota/tundra/2014_tundra_clear_headlight_markers

    OEM look is really nice.. and im suprised how factory looking it came out. If you did the LS460 it would look super factory with the factory shroud it comes with!
    Can't wait to see what you got in mind.

    Thank you Omar.

    First the cover I got was used.. It shows some age..
    There are a few paint chips on the folds I will definitely respray or just touch up paint.
    As for the rest of the cover. It does look a little faded.
    So I cleaned it with Chemical Guys Green Clean Diluted 15:1 (15oz distilled water/1oz green clean), and it brought some life back to it..
    Next I will use some McGuire's plastic polish and buff the whole cover out.(hopefully bring that shine back)
    Then apply sealant.

    I probably won't touch up the paint or Plastic Polish(fine finish w/ jeweling type pad) it until my next heavy detail on the tundra.. Maybe late fall before winter comes.

    Sealant I will apply in an hour. on my next break.

    Whatever you do plan to do or use on the cover make sure that it is Plastic safe.
    http://www.undercoverinfo.com/warranty-information#flex

    AND ALWAYS EXPERIMENT ON A SMALL AREA BEFORE ATTEMPTING A LARGE PART OF THE COVER.

    Camera doesn't do much justice, but with just the sealant I used, it really brought it back. And not as much shine as I would want but it definitely is a lot more black than a faded black.. Not brand new but a lot better than it was when I first installed it.
    Pretty happy with the results. Heading out to a hobby store to find some flat black touch up paint markers I can use.
