    Any ideas for painting the front skid? I was thinking either white, or black with "Yota" or "Taco" in white.

    Spent a day changing gear oil and engine oil using plastic parts I ordered off the internets. Boy do they make oil changes easier to complete!

    Plastic pump to squirt gear oil (screws right over the mobile 1 bottles :D), had to modify (extend) the tube that sticks in to suck out entire bottle-

    Plastic AST funnel that screws right into the oil filler (just like the OEM oil cap) for a "no spill" engine oil pour. I also use this funnel on our Sienna as well since the funnel fits most Yotas! -

    I'll admit, it gave me pause... but most for commiseration. I hate painting outdoors. Just glad I got the garage cleaned out so the next time I paint anything it'll be out of the elements.

    We can order the "Elite" bumper now before the official GB price?? I'm so jelly on your rear bumper. I hit adam up a couple weeks ago regarding that and he said he was working on the first one.... I can't wait till he puts together a solid price point.

    Edit: Nevermind....you bought Jlee's huh. That's a sharp bumper. I'm hoping this GB goes.... Now that you have yours, you're not gonna forget about the GB you were putting together right?

    Nah, not going to leave you guys high and dry. As soon as we get to 15 Tim will chime in. I originally was going to order one from him and told him I would wait then he asked me to see if I could get 15 people interested then he would do a Gb. Almost there.
