What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

So far yeah, nice finish on the product. Yup, there’s a link a few posts after my post.

 

You have link for the tri-colour LED bulbs if one does NOT have an Instagram account?

 

Did that TRD sale ever occur?

 

What Trd sale? I hope it didn’t because I missed it if it did

 

I haven’t heard yet. The biggest sale I’ve seen so far is on revmoto. 5% making the painted scooped hood just over $1,300. It’s tempting, but quite a lot of coin for looks without function. Although I could justify that I’m fixing a very small dent in my current hood.

 

Yup, just scooped up a trd skid plate for $336 shipped and a few other goodies from germain naples online parts shop. Free shipping and no tax, win win!

 

Is it over? Link? Details?

Us addicts need our fix

 

For those wanting a TRD pro skid, this is the lowest price I've found so far:

Thank you!

 

@Mobtown Offroad High clearance bumper with tube protection

 

Nice, I'm still working on a better way to mount them. I don't find them secure. I don't like the push in tab method as those really expensive ones because those tabs break way too easy with 3D prints, that's more a one use prototype than a product. Will keep thinking on it.

 

Be interested to see if that ebay seller switches over to a bevel design. I posted a similar flat version on thingiverse awhile back and posted a beveled design similar to the forum member a day or two ago. I have it set as a non commercial license.

 

The ones we are producing are a very good fit and should not come out without some manual force. A lot of time and trial and error was put into designing them to ensure a proper fit into the cutout, though.

 

Guessing you changed the design from StapleNuts? Picture still looked the same style.

 

Yes, we had to start from scratch to make them fit more securely in the cut out. The concept will always be similar as the other designs since there's really only one way to put a bezel into these grilles.

 

Fresh rubber yesterday, so I took it for a spin.

 

I refuse to believe there isn't a better way to skin this cat besides making it slightly thicker, lol. I've come up with a few designs, but the problem I keep running into is repeatability in uninstalling and reinstalling, which is what Staple's design has going for it.
