    Yeah, i was on the fence about the bronze. Originally wanted gunmetal but on national backorder from mfg and this was the the only color available in 16x8 with -10 BS. I knew i wanted this wheel, so i went with it. I am not at all disappointed how it looks!

    not tough at all actually, just follow the write up and it is pretty easy. I found it handy to have some 2x4s of varying short lengths around to lift the cab up as well as place them between the frame and cab as insurance for my hands. Sticking hands in between makes me nervous but nothing went wrong. Just be sure to remove your engine splash shields as I forgot to do so and tore one hole while jacking up the cab. I also had to loosen the steering wheel shaft collar to allow it to slide out a bit.

    Besides that, just remove, coat bolts in anti seize, bushings with lube, and torque down to spec. So far no squeaks.

    Scored some seat covers on eBay for $60. Not sure what brand they are, but they fit pretty snug, have the TRD logo, and are waterproof.

    Wheel and tire upgrade today. Goodyear Ultra terrains, stock size. I'll go bigger and lift once it's paid for.

    My day yesterday and today, replaced front/rear rotors/pads and replace both front brake calipers, dumbass at the parts counter gave me the 2 driver side calipers, found out after I installed and tried to bleed the brakes...kinda my fault too for not double checking.

    Very interested in how you did this and what you bought? especially interested on how you attached them to the bed rails.
