    No! (Although I think white would look great, the black is more intriguing)

    Finally got the TRD Pros mounted up today!! And an oil change at the dealer. Thinking I'm going to remove the bull bar and side rails now. Then smoked fogs, eyelids and a factory skid plate, or maybe I'll cough up some big cheese for a nice one.

    Have you tuned your antenna? The red bootie affects the SWR pretty good so make sure you tune it with the bootie on then either electrical tape it on or use some RTV. You can buy spare ones off Amazon.

    You could just get @CBoy808 to make you some vinyl stickers to put over them. That's what I did for my FJ Emblem for my custom mesh grill

    Dont forget you should change your front and rear diff fluid, tcase fluid, Auto transmission fluid, and coolant. Plus grease your zerks, retourque your driveline bolts, change air filter and in-cab filter, replace sparkplugs, throttle body cleaning, check a lot of things, etc...

    Stealership wanted 1700 for my 60k maintenance. I'm doing it all myself for 300-400 in parts, fluids, and supplies. Half way done. Hope to finish this weekend.

    Hayes manual is your friend.

    First fill up after transmission flush. I usually average 16.6 or 17mpg.

    Holy crumbs, I just had my 65k at the dealer and it was $110. When do they suggest replacing sparkplugs? I know that's an expensive job and I feel it's coming up soon.
