love the all black... only thing left tint the backlights

 

Very nice !

 

Nice man! Any plans for rear armor? And by chance do you live in Oceanside? Those apartment and parking structure looks familiar

 

Thanks man, yeah coming soon.

Thanks man.

Yeah actually I do live in Oceanside lol, yeah more trail armor coming soon.

 

nice looking rig man

 

Thanks man.

 

Nice man, what ya got plan for the rear armor?

From the pictures it looks like you either live in Canyon Club Apartments or near it lol I MAY be wrong though and just looks similar..brings back memories!

 

Great looking truck! Some may ask....Why the chrome grill and rr bumper? I won't tho because having an SR5 & with chrome grill & rr bumper, I recognize it as a bit of contrast worthy of keeping.

 

I probably will stick with All-Pro unless something better pops up plus thats what I'm already running upfront. Only thing I was a little bummed about was that All-Pro's rear bumper is not compatible with the stock tow hitch... but thats no big deal prob should change it anyway.

Damn you're good, I do live in CC for the moment moving in a few months though. I take it you lived here?

To be honest I had a few people ask the same and my reasoning is I actually feel as though the front looks better with it Chrome rather than color matched. (judging from what I have seen floating around) Since I had made that decision, it wouldn't look weird if I had left the chrome bumper alone. However I do agree that the chrome wont last long, it is 100 times more durable than the pos plastic ones running on the sport models. I will be getting rear armor in the future so no need to spend money on plastidip'n the rear chrome bumper.

 

I always thought All-Pro was one of the few, if not only, rear bumpers that utilizes the stock tow hitch. Guess I was wrong. You can look in to Brute Force for rear bumper. IMO they might be more durable and a bit cheaper(I don't have any experience with either vendor..just from what I've read). They're located in Visalia/Bakersfield or somewhere around there. I'm currently running OEM bumper as well but when the time comes I will be going with Brute Force.

And yes! I used to live in CC. That was years ago back in 09..apartment complex 317 I belive..I forget! It's that corner complex facing towards Canyon and Mission

 

very nice truck!

 

Nice ride!

 

Yeah I might have to run with Brute Force for my rear bumper.

I think I kno where thats at. They just painted the entire complex... it was in dire need!
