    It's amazing how much has changed on my truck after a year of owning it

    I haven't done much but what I have done makes a bit of a impact....next I hope to get a bed cover, better tires and possibly some suspension work done. Keep in mind this is just a SR 4 banger

    Looks great!

    I really don’t get the design of 16-19 sr/SR5 grille, what’s up with these weird narrow cutouts? Looks out of place IMO. I reallly like how the 2020+ SR grille looks like, IMO best looking 3rd gen grille.

    Fair enough. Probably not getting black again. Haha!

    Im strange and wanted black only. All of my vehicles were black, except for one and I hated it. Well it was the only AT that I ever had too, that didn’t help.

    Not a bad idea.

    You are not the first person to tell me that, haha! Most people I know think I’m crazy. In may I spent 10 hours doing 2 stage cut polish, 2 coats of 10h creamic followed by a topcoat. Also did all my glass and plastics.:crazy: And then took it camping…

    I agree, outside of the Pro Grille the 16-19 Grilles are all kinda lame.
