    I just started at a corner and it peeled off easy then used wax to clean up where the outline was. Some use a hairdryer or heat gun to help it peel and goo gone to clean up the paint then wax.

    Today I removed all the chrome badges and box decals. Then I put some new TRD Sport badges on the doors. The mods are slow right now but I have a couple more waiting in the wings for the time.20191012_111914.jpg 20191012_160016.jpg

    I had a piece of stainless steel laying around and cut to size,rounded the corners and drilled holes for T nuts and quick fists then rattle canned black.

    Very easy to do and saved some money to go towards other stuff.

    The double bit axe was actually my grandmother’s who would use it to cut kindling. She was a great woman and I kept it all these years and refurbished it. The sheath I made from kydex.

    Dont mean to butt in but pm'd him earlier and he said she was doing a little better and that the doctor was pleased with her progress at the follow up appointment. He has his hands full right now taking care of her but will be back as soon as she improves some more.

    Took her for a 40 mile ride to try out my new front seat risers and am more impressed than ever by the increase in comfort. Don't really understand why some people raise the rear of the seat instead of the front but to each his own. :thumbsup:

    You are the first person to raise the front and I was surprised by your post as the spacer was supposed to go in the back. I'm with you, if anything, I would raise the front not the back.

    Is there any differences in seats between models? Oddly my Sport seats are just right in the front height.

    For me today I drove country roads all about. Enough that my mpg started to ease up to 19mpg. OVT tune working great. The angled glass cover garnish doesn't seem to impact anything....well except bugs.

    Came home and my custom TRD battery holder was waiting for me.
