What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks awesome! Where did you order it from?
TIA

 

Have a link to this?

 

Was this your first vinyl installation?, that looks great!, and pushes me to give it a try….

 

Does the catalytic do anything to suppress the noise from the motor? If not, why not weld a tube where the cat was?

Or enter these part numbers at Walmart. com...

00948-chmsl (Trim ring that goes around outside of third brake light)
00948-chmsl-hw (3m marine adhesive 4000 uv and spreader tool)

Just buy the first part and pick up a tube of permatex rtv silicone for $6.

 

Just a warning, those clips for the wiring through the tailgate can be a PAIN… I broke when when installing my kit. Couldn’t find an actual oem part for it. So I had to buy an aftermarket set that was like an additional $20. I didn’t do the “tape” marking when removing the original, but would suggest doing it to save your clips. They were the hardest part of the install.

 

Was looking at the sticker of a '22 at the lot and saw a black custom exhaust system addon for $799. I've never heard of the entire thing being black chrome, only the tip. I have to go and check this out some more.

 

Probably the TRD catback, but I wouldn't pay that much. Comes with a chrome or black chrome tip.

 

They're getting $499 for the TRD skid too. That thing is around half that off the shelf isn't it?

 

Damn short bed life

 

Yes......it will be louder and the o2 sensor after the convertor would be going crazy

 

Closer to $350 and maybe addl for shipping. 1/2 hr to install at $150/hr (I don’t know the shop time or rate. Just guessing.)

 

Nice looking Rig! Looking at some brake updates, would you mind sharing the links to the set up you installed, and any feedback you have so far, Thanks

 

Thanks for the heads up. I've heard the clips were the hardest part of the install and I will do the tape marking.
Cheers!

 

damn! Those topo overlays are growing on me

 

You got it buddy!!! Sounds fantastic!!!

 

Well I’m not a liar, and I’m not quite 5”7’. Guess that’s a day to wear the redwings.

 

8 Gallon WaterPORT

 

Thanks! I got it from Wrap Armor but apparently there’s a shortage of 3M vinyl so it took almost 2 months to get it.

First vinyl this big but not bad all in all. Recommend plenty of soapy water, good squeegee and heat gun… and may be beneficial to not do it mid day in the Cali sun!

Hahah! Any days a good day for Redwings…

 

Hit the last two drive through trees today on the California coast. Here’s some pics.
