    That one does not look like 50/50 perf. So it should not suffer from "holding" water like mine does. It looks like it is just the stars and stripes so you have clear window for the star field and half the stripes. :thumbsup:

    I can/will take a pic looking out the window when I leave the office in about and hour. I can post that later tonight or tomorrow, depending on what I have planned this evening and have not yet been briefed on by the boss/wife. ;)

    EDIT: I will try to take the pic with back window dry, a portion wet and one of the rear sides all in one shot so you can make your own judgement as to which type of window film you would prefer. Both types have advantages and disadvantages.

    That is exactly what i thought yours would look like for the inside. You are 100% right about the 50/50 turning to "frosted glass" when wet. I can only guess, from FL, what it would be like in an area that actually got frost/ice.

    Traded in 2012 Tundra Rock Warrior Crew Cab, was able to factory upgrade at time of purchase. The exhaust, intake and skid plate were all done the same day and the tires and suspension were done at the same time. However it took months to get the Pro suspension, which Toyota almost wasn't able to get for a non Pro VIN vehicle.

    Congrats! I had a similar conversation with a salesman. I told him I had seen a lot of TRD Pro's driving around. He told me that's not possible due to supply limitations. So I responded with, "Well there must be a lot of TRDs with Pro grills then." And he told me that's not possible because Toyota verifies the VIN before sale. WHAAAAAAAAT? Shut up and take my money...

    Looks like I’m going to lift another inch in back. It’s level according to the tape measure, but doesn’t look like it when you step back. Idk. I like a little rake anyway.

    Added some brand new Rough Country nerf bars that I got off Craigslist. When I added a two-inch lift last month, I significantly underestimated how much of a pain it would be for my fat ass to climb in (especially in dress pants.)

    Anyway, I’m officially done now. This time I’m serious. Hahaha.

    Here's my $15 dollar Mod, yes $15.

    I purchased a packet of 6 LED grille lights from Autozone. The wiring and loom were leftovers from my bed lighting, and aluminum strips leftover from FJ40 project including the waterproof connector. ​

    Here are pics of the fabrication and installation process:
