    Took the Toyota emblem from the grille and sanded it to a nice dull finish. No more chrome, but still silver. Probably going to paint it red or white, I can't decide what would be a good color. Suggestions?

    I got the D2 driving lights and Dually Spot lights. They're retardedly bright. The Driving lights alone are brighter than my high beams. I still have to tweak/aim them.


    They're mounted on a custom bracket I made, similar to the one BAMF is selling but not nearly as pretty. but then it's only cost me $10... Just using the wiring they came with, the D2s came with a relay and the others didn't. I have a Bluesea fuse panel coming and gonna add a relay to the Duallys. The switches are tucked into the in dash fuse cover. I'll take some pics when I make it all pretty.

    AFE intake arrived today. Had to make a custom bracket to relocate the air pump. Still have to finish it tomorrow and I'll take some better pictures then. I left the cover off the airbox for now because it makes it sound much sexier.

    Installed my take on the Access Cab rear storage/dog shelf thing. Two drawers under; flips up for removal or access to the jack compartments. Hardware store paint guy did a pretty good match to the interior trim.

    Grill looks great! I'm nervous about the first step too! LOL! What did you use to cut the plastic and how'd it work out?

    just saw your question, sorry. It is a store bought sub box from subthump.com, .96 cf, $129.00. I cannot see doing that myself for that price. Pretty solid construction too.it took my two little dogs about 20 minutes to fall in love with the back deck. They walk around and look out the windows and lay down and sleep while driving. They seem pretty happy.

    Nice. Likely gonna switch over to HID too. But gonna wait and by a set of extra headlights to do BHLM and projectors. I'm not about to do it to my stock set and risk screwing them up.
