Hey Connecticut, our everything hurts

Morning Connecticut

 

By the pictures my guess is down around North 114th street down around the brewery and Brooklyn Bowl?

 

Other side of town. Over by House of Yes and Area 53

 

Goid morning.
Today was my second failed attempt of replacing my stock grill with TRD grill from Tacoma Lifestyle. I can't get the clips to come out and as a matter of fact 3 of them broke lol. They make it seem really easy on YouTube videos. Everything goes smoothly until it's the time to separate center part of the grill from the frame.
As much as I prefer DIY, I'm going next week to have it installed professionally before I break more clips on a vehicle with 300 miles on the odometer.

Drilling holes in a bumper of a car that has 45 miles on it.

 

Just FYI, for you Ryobi guys Home Depot having a big sale on a bunch of it including the monster torque 1/2 impact

 

Nice. What are you doing with it?

 

Tomorrow’s project

 

Installing chrome trim pieces that the sport version has. I'm also doing front and rear spoilers and I already changed out the tail lights.

 

For those that remember the link I posted last week to Bring A Trailer for the 2013 TRD Off Road with 14K miles it sold at $25,250

Currently there's a 1985 SR5 extended cab 4x4 with 135k miles that's been re-done that with three days remaining is at...$39,817

25 is way too much for that truck, feel bad for the sucker that's about to find out what a bad decision that was...

 

I don't really need it but it's a heck of a price

 

Have fun. Getting it out is a bitch and only fits one way. Going back at least you have gravity to help.

 

Id pay that much for a mint 2nd gen. Best gen

 

Oh boy..

 

My chrome delete "bumpershellz" from ecoological just arrived today for the rear bumper . Planning to install it tomorrow without hopefully breaking anything this time . Just need to run to Harbor Freight in the morning and get small plastic pry bar kit.

 

You know where to find me

 

You'll be fine, just fair warning it's a little battle to get it up and out... if you don't get it in the first few tries take a quick break and try again. I stood on a step stool to get right above.

 

it did? guess I napped through it.
