WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR 3RD GEN TUNDRA TODAY?

Personally, I like the small bit of chrome. Breaks it all up a little.

 

I don't mind a little bit of chrome but on limited that grille mustache for some reason is painted silver- not chrome. Nothing else is painted silver on my truck so it looks odd. If I've had a chrome mustache I would not change it, it would be ok to me

 

anker magsafe from Amazon, less than $30

Refitted my ark splash guards to fit my uca’s a bit better. I also upgraded the factory push in clips with some beefy universal ones. If anyone is wondering the ark splash guards are pretty damn awesome I got the front and rear installed

Great tire but definitely a bit rough and have had some trouble getting them balanced. I’ll definitely be switching to a bigger tire after I get some more use out of these bad boys. My back tire sticks out maybe a fraction more than the front but I assume that’s because I don’t have the trd axles

 

gentle tug on the headliner by the sunroof with it all open gets you all sorts of access. Pops right back on. Rear pillar also pops apart so I fished through there.

 

Will never have that problem thankfuly, the little woman bought her own 2023 Tacoma. After looking at the Fab Four bumper swap on my Tundra she did ask if I could do her's too.

 

I’d leave well enough alone. You have some silver/chrome accents and need the color offset imo. I like the break up of white/black with red accents but also think the red steps are too loud. I myself have been guilty way too many times of over tinkering just to make my vehicle unique. Ends up getting cheesy.

All just my opinions.

 

From Rave…extremely overpriced, especially because I had to sand down the cheap 3D printing job, but they were my only option (apart from no fake vents).

 

ewwwwwww, Rave

 

Yah man, not sure why they don’t have better competition, but it’s why they can do what they do.

 

Scored some 1UP bike racks off of the craigslist!

These are so compact compared to the Yakima front tire units that were on there before.

Test fit was done with my wife's Marin gravel bike.

 

This is one of the reasons I made my own instead of ordering from RAVE...wasn't happy with the 3d printing quality or price. I cut a blank on my laser. You're done already, but if you're interested, I wrote it up here.

Finished result attached.

 

Which mesh did you use inside the grill? I like it.

 

Are they that bad? I was looking at getting the TRD grill kit from them. Thanks

 

you should sell those without the light cutouts lol

 

I’m running the rave front grill kit. It’s honestly pretty good quality. Wish the center bar light was a bit better also that it didn’t do a weird squeak plastic noise when I apply a decent amount of force to the grill but other than that I can’t complain. I’m happy with the purchase

 

Those lights could be used for counter or boost indicator!

Or each light could be used to count the number of engine replacements! But seriously, it is a nice addition and makes it unique.

 

I can make and sell a set for anyone who wants them (the inserts). I don't have time to manufacture the whole set for folks though. LMK if you're interested.

 

"Number of engine replacements." BWHHAAH! #ImDead

 

Boost counter idea is pretty damn good too lol

 

Got the TRD tailpipe. Installing this weekend

 

Are they off of backorder yet? Or have you been waiting awhile for it? Also is it the regular chrome or black?

 

It’s the black one. They are still on back order I think. I’ve had 2 orders canceled this year. My local dealer told me to reach out randomly and see if they can locate one. I reached out yesterday and they said they noticed 1 in stock at a warehouse in Houston. Got an email today saying it was ready for pick up. Came out to $268

 

Is it going to be pretty plug ‘n’ play? Keep us posted on whether it’s worth the wait and cost.

 

Thanks for the info. My dealer here is terrible and won't even give me any help or advice. They just want money and say "just pay us and we will get one as soon as possible." Might have to expand my dealer search...

 

My local dealers seem to be way more expensive then others across the country. I usually search online for part numbers and find dealers that run discounts and free shipping. I can usually find parts 30% cheaper than my local options.

 

Where are you at in AZ? We've got a parts guy at AutoNation Tempe that will get pretty close to the online prices of stuff. You just have to act like you're in the AZTG Facebook group and there's a decent discount he can apply.

 

Picked up a K&N cabin air filter for $40 on Amazon...reg price was $50 pn VF2080

 

Running boards and a Rough Country Tri-fold cover got her lookin’ like a snack
