    Some people have used the cut out center of the grille to plastic weld onto the leftover surround for 12+ deep satoshi grills but $40 is nuts for a bunch of hacked plastic.

    It took about 40 min for the TSB and they didn't need to remove the bumper. There is a small scratch on the driver side light but there will be more sooner or later.

    Not today but yesterday.

    Anyway... Got everything done underneath the truck. Just rolled over 14k. Oil changed, rear diff oil changed, drive shafts lubed, and tires rotated. Spent the rest of the day cleaning out the engine bay and went from front to back underneath. 6hrs later, Shit is fucking clean now (at least the bottom half).

    tail gate lock, rear view mirror bracket, hood hinge brackets, and the list grows.
    Removed bedside decals, and started to make the speaker adapters for my audio build. Still kinda cold here so couldn't do much outside

    Gave it a quick wash and dry.
    I love this truck. I'd do sex stuff with it if it was socially acceptable.

    Technically it is a TSB for the DTRL but they have to replace the whole headlight housing. The DTRL bulbs sometimes melt the lense like this:
