    Seriously, how was it over $600? :eek: I just priced it at $54.95 for a day on their site. Not sure about mileage, but if it was a short drive wtf cost so much? Even renting their auto transport for 5 days was still only $274.75!

    Over the weekend, I did some paint work on the front end. When I did the front end conversion, I wasn't happy with the paint on the bumper. My paint guy ran short on base coat and the coverage wasn't what I'd hoped for. So I re-shot the bumper and clear coated it.

    Sooooooooo, I figured while I was at, it I'd color match my grill. So I sanded it, prepped it, sprayed it with 2X primer, base coat and clear coated. We'll see if it stays. If not, I'll try it again. No harm, no foul. After all, It's only paint. Sand it off and do it again.

    So, here it is. No more "chrome" grill. You like????

    Its for a 1600 mile drive for maybe 2-3 days and since its a drop off at another location.
    Then again I'm in the middle of no where so they think they can use inflation to jack the price.

    It looks beautiful! Love the Red! You should spray the Toyota Emblem on the front Black and do the BHLM... That would set it off!!!...:D

    Haha...well...the order from Oahu was fairly large, so we have a est 12 weeks of lead time. Could be sooner, but it all depends on Tyler and his workload I guess. We ordered a butt-ton from Pelfreybilt...:D

    Any combined shipping? That's a good idea. Been talking with EddyRTT about his hybrid and sliders. Have the money burning to be spent

    Yeah...it's gonna be a big shipment for sure. Prob multiple pallets involved, but I not sure of the cost yet. I assume they will total the weight and then we'll break it down by cost per pound and distribute it up amongst the members who ordered. Sooo...that's the scary part...except overall it should come out cheaper in the end as oppose to an individual order.

    I hear ya on burning money..lmao!

    Had a few good friends come over to help me install my bed and door lights.
    Its all spliced right into the dome power right behind the compartment left of the steering wheel. Comes on when you open the doors, or unlock the truck. All the int lamps are LEDs, and combined, all these LED strips are pulling less than 2A. No need a relay, so they fade in and out real nice.
    I bought 2 5m rolls off ebay and I still have enough left to wire up some hood lights.

    Just the door lights and int lights with the door cracked open.

    With headlights, rigid duallys and rigid SR-MF reverse lights.

    Tail reverse lights are CSjumper LEDs.

    Super happy with the way they came out :cool:
