    thanks guys! I was kinda skeptical about the grille being dipped black, but then I went and did it...and I like how it turned out. The eyelids kinda turned out a little rough, I guess I sprayed too much plasti dip on for the first coat and it ran, but I think the look pretty good, better than spending $50 for TRex eyelids

    The good thing is if your not happy with the way the eyelids turned out you can peel it & redo it.

    my PreRunner did awesome out there in Citrus, granted I got stuck a couple times because I pushed my 2wd open diff to some spots where a locker and 4wd would have gotten me out. But overall, half of the trucks that were at Citrus were 2WD, the prerunners are very very capable trucks being 2wd. It would only make it better if you got the factory Elocker, which would make things sooooooooooooooo much easier, I wish I had one lol
