    Painted rear hubs black to go with new wheels, swapped out emblems with a set that I painted black, added a tundra 4x4 emblem, and added subdued flag decals from @CBoy808. Really liking the gray and black look so far.

    added in some CaliRaised ditch brackets and BajaDesigns S2 lights. Brackets are super nice. The only thing i didnt like was the use of SAE hardware, I changed it out for metric. but other then that, super nice.
    didnt get to wash the truck though lol

    Negative. Just bulbs. Probably would have been easier to pull the housing

    I'm glad I did this mod. So helpful. Plus it's easy to do.

    I work in a tire shop. Plugs are great in an emergency but not a permanent solution. It should be properly repaired when you can.

    Spent ~15 hours in her today, long road trip to pick up this bumper. Had some fun along the way home too!
    Package received:

    I don’t know how a panoramic photo will look on here but just know it was freezing balls where I took this pic. I think the elevation was 8500 ft

    Then had to play in a little bit of snow. First time driving this truck in the snow, even if it was barely anything.

    Also as a bonus I got the best MPG I’ve gotten in the truck even before the supercharger. Kind of cheating because all the down hill but still pretty cool I think. 7EDF696E-11D4-42BB-B321-2124347D62B5.jpg

    I usually get 16-17, this was a bit extreme going from 8500 ft to about 3700 ft. I will say dont be in a hurry anywhere and dont go over 65/70 mph and you should be able to get 18. Not if you have big heavy tires tho. Lots of factors into mpg
