    Good tips. I did a stupid 6" strip of Xpel on the tailgate and even that wasn't a super easy process (have never done it before). All the bubbles that were trapped got out on their own so about 2 weeks. Can't even imagine doing a full panel; its definitely a 2 person job to at least hold the backing as you peel and spray it down.

    Sorry for replying so late. I got the baby yoda hitch plug from an Etsy seller - 3B Makers. https://etsy.me/3hSl20D This is available in multiple colors. I just went a more subtle look for mine.

    I looked at that one and it does require you to cut the bumper. The only one I found that does not require the bumper to be cut is the Victory 4X4 bumper. It just installs over the top of the bumper and looks similar to the SSO.

    Breaking hinge pins off with a 12” pipe is disturbing. I did not go with a Bolt hinge pin lock because of reviews saying it had rusted. The idea that it could use an existing Toyota key made it tempting.

    Did my clutch ADM yesterday. Took what felt like forever because my line wrenches were too long and didnt have adjustable heads. Also some of the foil-like heat shielding is sharp AF. Totally worth it and my shifts no longer suck.

    Decent thread here. I’m still evaluating my options.

    I'd at least unroll it and see if the actual film is creased (ie came off backing and stuck to itself). You may be able to smoothe it out with a little bit of heat before applying. Still, those big sheets aren't cheap so I'd go with a replacement and maybe you won't need to ship it back.

    Are you guys using a high pressure spray like at a car wash or doing this at home with a hose and nozzle?

    Finally got my new tires on the other day. Looking forward to going out wheeling in 2 weeks and seeing how big of a difference they make.

    Installed MESO V2 Dome light, the red looks great at night, would be a nice option for the map lights as well.

    From what I’ve read there’s love and hate for BOLT on Amazon reviews. I bought my four straight from their website and have no problems over the past year. I’ve heard that there’s fake ones sold on Amazon, no surprise
