Blazing Blue Pearl Thread

My 2018 I just picked up a couple of weeks ago. 200 miles on it now and decided to take a picture with the good camera since it will never look this nice again. I installed a used ShiftSense Pro that I got from someone on TW... really transformed the truck. No other mods planned, really happy with the truck. I didn't realize until after I brought it home, the grill on the '18s is black instead of chrome which is awesome. Was not a big fan of the cheese grater before. It is still a cheese grater style but just not chrome and in my opinion makes a huge difference.

 

Congrats. Looks awesome. Enjoy the ride!

 

For the BBP crowd:

 

New to the forum, here’s my truck. Love it so far!

 

Welcome to the club
Ready to empty your wallet for mods I hope

 

Wonder why they don’t have a $140 Pro skidplate from China too?

 

cuase the pro skid plate are like cardboard and no one wants them, and for 250$ an RCI one is way more badass for half the price

 

Anything beats the Fisher-Price stock skid plate

 

You have a nice looking truck ---Except for --that "chain-link" fence you ran into.
Teasing you of course -- you like it -- that's all that counts!

 

Beauty! Nice to see another limited!
I see you switched out the fog bezels, matches the new grill. What you doin Ruth the mirror caps? I'm undecided

 

Love those Pro tail lights!

 

That is a really good looking rig, Love the pro bits you have on there! Welcome to Tacomaworld, where all the cool kids hang out.

 

Here’s my 17 sr5

 

Thanks! I think I going to get the color matched mirror covers. I don't mind the chrome on the door handles so I will leave those as is.

 

exactly was i was thinking. I got the meeso ultimate turn signals. makes the chrome caps look better. But if you were to get the blue covers the stock signals i think would look better then how they do on our currently

 

Here's what I did this weekend - I wasn't a fan of the TRD grille, so I found an alternative.
Also pulled the V6 badge off the tailgate and added the insert lettering.
Also, not shown, extended the a/c drain line so it wouldn't drip on the frame.

 

Went into the dealership last week and ordered my new truck. They found one for a dealer transfer, and said I would have it by the end of this week. Yesterday I stopped by and went over the list with them to make sure everything was right, and it WASN'T. So, now they are ordering a build, and I'm looking at 6-8 weeks. So, no pics, so it hasn't happened.... YET!

Ordered, TRD-OR, DCLB, BBP, Auto 4x4, Premium JBL and Tech package, black leather seats (and some other minor stuff).
Gonna be a long two months!

The last Toyota I had was a 1982 4x4. Sold it in 1995. Been a long time coming back home.

April 27, 2018, edit: Dealership today told me the build is scheduled for May 1st, give or take, and that I should expect to have my truck by the middle to end of May. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

May 15, 2018 edit: Email from dealership this past weekend. Truck is in freight and expected to be delivered between the 23rd and 29th.

 

Did a few mods yesterday for my birthday! Windows tinted, door sill protectors, tailgate inserts, blacked out chrome around air vebts, console cover, LED interior dome lights

 

Added LaminX film to the fogs. Happy with the product quality so far.
