Question for all of those out there with the factory TRD bed cover.... Is there anyway to tighten up the seal at the back seem to be a bit loosey goosey. I can pull up and have about a 3/4 inch gap when its latched

Either let it slam down from being open or put your weight into it and push down on the corners. You will hear it click in. Learned it going over speed bumps when it wasn't closed properly

Fog light bezels were like 15 I think? Not much at all. They are even easier to take on and off. Not sure if the dealer will come down on the mirror covers. If so, good for you. Take pics when you get done with it. I like the chrome on the handles. That will stay for me. I also like the polished wheels. Post some of yours.

I get oem parts from the parts distribution center (same place the dealer gets them but I don't pay the mark up). It's a perk of working for the same family of companies that own a Toyota distributor.

I'm 50/50 on the handles. I'm with you though, I kinda like them so i might keep them.

Here's where I'm at right now. I have BPF skid plate due to be here by Thursday.

Glad someone actually bought TRD SPORT rims, everyone on here is all about the 4Runner TRD pro rims but I feel the sport rims actually have a really nice look. Really underrated. Good choice man!

Finished Plasti dipping my grill tonight badges are next. Also based on my limited experience I would recommend the original plasti dip brand over the dupli color custom wrap. Plasti dip seems to be a much more durable and "bonds" better. Those impressions are based solely on peeling off the excess but the plasti dip was substantially stronger. Have not had either on any of my vehicles long enough to compare actual durability

That tag's a pretty kick ass mod.

All I do is push firmly on the rear where it latches to the bed and it clicks in tighter.

Made a folding dog platform for my two pups. Found this great write up in a 2nd gen from @rab89 - the dimensions worked out great in my 3rd gen

It is from Custom Car Grills (http://www.customcargrills.com/Toyota-Truck-Grills.asp), and there are several options as far as how it comes depending on how light you want to make your wallet You can get just the mesh, and then you would have to use the outer bezel that you already have, or you can order the mesh installed on a new OEM bezel. I ordered mine with a new flat black bezel because I wanted to keep my original chrome grille and bezel should I decide to go back to it or paint it or whatever. As far as the letters, you can have big letters installed on the mesh (a drop down option on the above link), but what I got was this http://www.customcargrills.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Toyota_OEM_Emblem , which can also come either installed or loose. There are several different badge and letter options with this grille on the Grill Letter tab at their site (http://www.customcargrills.com/Grill-Letters.asp).

Hope that helps!
