    With all the everyday stresses of normal life nowadays, sometimes its just better to let the little things go. At least that's what I try to do to improve my already dubious mental health issues some say I have. :spy: :)

    Just minor stuff. For example, Undercover bed cover, Tufskinz custom door sill protectors, and TRD air filters.
    Is that paint marker a gloss black or flat black? I need a flat black for a touch up to a black TRD wheel.

    I always walk around my truck and pull off my center caps at the tire shop and put them on the passenger floor mat. They always use the air gun and the sockets rub the caps.

    the problem with letting "small" things go is that you are opening the door to the next customer to the same problem, address the problem now so that hopefully they can fix the root cause and prevent it from happening to someone else

    I agree with having the shop fix this. DT scratched all four of my wheels when mounting new tires. They bought me a new set of Fuels, one of which came in damaged, so they replaced that. After 4K on those rims, I discovered 3 of the 4 were damaged, 2 with flat spots, and one with a dent in the barrel. I got another set from DT, but had 4WP mount the tires on my dime, and discovered yesterday, when washing the truck, that 4WP scratched one of those rims. WTAF? 4WP is putting a new set of tires on this week, and I'm going to see what they want to do about that rim. Why is so hard to do a good job?
