What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Time to upgrade to full steel! I went with 4x innovations and powder coated to match

 

Softopper and air bed w tailgate ext

 

Damn is that a nick in the powder already?

 

Yep, was really displeased when I unwrapped all the padding and shrink wrap. They made me a can of touch up… but still, it was $400 to powder coat.
I should have inspected before taking it

 

“No fault” or FL PiP coverage is only for injuries.

I’d talk to your agent about rates going up. Usually when you aren’t at fault there wouldn’t be an increase in your insurance.

 

The upgrades from the last month of so, just cosmetic stuff
Complete waxed with Magwires paste,removed the bed side decals, hood and window deflecters, black badge overlays silver and black grab handles for the g kids. I was going to add all black bedside decals but I like it without them

 

Looks better than my $25 Ebay pleather...

 

The Kickers were not cutting it with the Alpine amp I installed, in comes Hertz.

 

Clazzios

 

tough fuckin’ crowd!
lol.

 

Got the passenger side door sound deadened and the replaced the speaker. Audio quality is much improved.

 

This looks good , what about the back up sensors, do they have a bumper to install those into along with the blind spot monitors that are in the bumper as well?

Wash you truck as usual. Then You can dry it with a towel to get some of the spots to go away.
I wash it let it dry (drag a towel over it to speed things up if your in a hurry).
Then it takes 5 minutes to section spray then wipe a detailer product to give it the shine and get rid of any water spots and road grease as well.
I use this brand because some cheap stuff can leave streaks.

 

I’ll check that out thanks!

 

Installed some AVS in channel vent visors. And almost fell to this blunder, luckily it was dry.

 

Finally added my rear vinyl...Etsy...forgot where I purchased it from...had them cut down a larger piece as I wanted a more sleek stripe verse larger one going over the wheel well.

 

I was reading some reviews on Amazon on that, so many said it was junk but still tempted to order it

 

Installed the Toyota OEM Remote Tailgate Lock kit on Saturday, and fixed perhaps my biggest annoyance with the truck. I like the peace-of-mind knowing that when the truck is locked, so is the tailgate...and in combination with the tonneau cover, anything in the bed is relatively secure.

Of course, my daily step count is probably going to decrease drastically. Every time I would get something out of the bed, I would lock the tailgate with the key, then get 50-100ft away and my brain would begin questioning whether or not I actually locked the tailgate. So I'd have to go back to verify, even though I knew I locked it. First world problems.
