    Since you have a covered bed, I highly recommend the factory bed lighting kit. You can pick them up cheap on eBay and they make a HUGE difference when it's dark out. The install is a bit of a pain but it's straightforward. The rubber bed liner mat is also handy. I like the look of no mud flaps but I just added some bc I was cringing at the sound of pebbles on my paint everytime I left the pavement. TRD pro grill also changes the look quite a bit, obviously.IMG_20180923_164203458.jpg

    Save the $700.00, and take the stupid emblems OFF of the side and tailgate.

    Do it as soon as possible, and then we'll think you are cool.

    Lighting is always a good place to start, you have a large grill with plenty of room behind it too. Tires are good if you’re going to be taking it off pavement, I had the Goodyear kevlars and was super unhappy with how they did in any mud, rocks, sand, and snow. I just threw on toyo at2’s, cheap if you shop around, lightweight, and do great in sand, gravel, and snow.

    Sliders saved my ass, lighting is fun, I would maybe do good struts.

    Portable air compressor and cargo net are pretty handy, especially if the load doesn't fit under the tonneau cover.

    Depends on what you do with it and if you need it or just want to look cool. I Offroad mine quite a bit and mine is stock. I realize I need some ground clearance so I’m putting coilovers on and rock sliders. Soon a RCI skid plate(stock one is mangled) and some tires.
