What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

What did you use to paint?

 

SEM Trim Black

 

Yeah...no idea why they'd need to make it different.

 

What tundra234 said lol

 

Finally found a new exhaust guy. Was hoping another shop could fix it, but he closed up shop after his wife passed. Ended up driving to Colorado and guy fixed all of the issues.
Did my first oil change, and finally got to use the motiv x tools. Went with Valvomax for quick drain, so hopefully next time it won’t be a pool of oil everywhere. Rotated the tires and no error messages.

 

Built and painted some new taillights. Integrated the chase lights and color matched Blue Ribbon Metallic.

 

Door handles replacement from chrome to black textured:

No…… sad to see it go! But congrats on everything!

 

How is the fitment compared to the reviews?

 

It's a tie-down, and not a recovery point. Being that it won't be off road and all...

 

I guess at least it was SOMETHING.

 

BUILT?
I need more details…

edit: NVM - found your build thread.

 

When I was looking for it I saw a concern about fitment in the reviews. I decided to give it a try anyways because of the price. But in my case, no issues so far. I did the install on June 23 of this year.

 

Haven’t done anything to my truck in a LONG time, but it’s time for a refresh… new grill, fogs and front bumper. Wheels may be next.

 

Thanks! I have had some slight rubbing on the front bumper but I’m going to put in a 1/2in spacer which should take care of it

I did this a few days ago but finally got the video made. Not sure why the sound is so bad it didn't sound like that when I uploaded it

 

On mandatory Fridays til the end of the month. Told my supervisor I had an appointment at 10 so had to leave early. Then I sent him this picture haha. Balance and rotation appointments.

 

Wow, those turned out great. Nice!

 

Thanks!!

 

managed to not get stuck in the car wash for a 3rd time lol.
finally found one where I went through with no issues, first one I got stuck close to the end, second one I went to I got stuck a little bit past half way.

 

lol it’s hard finding washes

 

yea, there was one didn't even let me go through, they pulled out the tape measure.
only reason I went to this last one was cause I saw some pretty big trucks going through it so figured I would be fine.

 

Took it dove huntingplayed teeter totter.

 

Dealer threw on some new Ironman iMove performance design tires before selling the truck I bought last Thursday. While new rubber is appreciated, it wasn’t working for what I need. So I got some General Grabber ATX put on today. Huge difference. I ran the same tire on my Silverado for three years and still over half tread left. Wore well and did good in wet conditions and on hunting trails as well. So happy these are mounted now! It was dark when I picked up the truck so haven’t really seen how much it changed the truck yet. I kept the wheels for now, even though I really want 18” for the additional sidewall. But money doesn’t grow on trees round here lol

 

Alright guys I need some help. After getting rear ended and totaling my 17, I’ve got a pile of stuff to do to my 19. Kids are back in school so trying to knock some of it out. What’s the mod to spray something on the gear indicator to take off the glare? I searched and couldn’t put the right words together to find anything. Any help appreciated…thanks!

 

Matte clear paint.

 

THANK YOU! I did it on my 17 and have been racking my brain. I couldn’t find matte clear paint in my garage so I thought that wasn’t it. Appreciate the help!

 

Yep...Rustoleum 2X clear matte.

 

Well, got the pair of DD SSC2 flush mounts I ordered a while back mounted. I think it came out pretty well. Shout out to @memario1214 for great service on my order and extra help recently when I was cursing at my light bar install at the other end of the truck.
