    For a double cab I believe you just remove the rubber strips on the outside roof of your cab and there should be 4 holes on each side covered with some type of film. The OEM roof rack should bolt strait to those. A shit ton easier than what I did to mod the double cab roof rack to fit my access cab.

    Holds up ridiculously well, I did a set of wheels before and eventually got bored with the color, it's much harder to remove but it is still removable. It gives a unique look and if I want to change my accent color later I can. Everything blue I plan to have dip underneath where I can.

    So if I wanted to cut the abs in let's say the winter, I can't simply pull the fuse without the brakelights not working? That sucks! I was trying to avoid to a cutoff switch.

    Cool deal! I think I will try this, how does the paint react with the plastidip? Does it just act as a primer?

    What seats did you go with? I need to do something about mine.

    Looks good!

    Why not keep your wheels and put 265/75/16 Duratracs? That's my plan with a 3" Icon extended travel.

    ^^^^ I really like the look of this!

    I wanted to see how my wheels would look black, so I plasti-dipped them. In the future I do plan on powdercoating them gloss black, but for now this will do. :)

    Looks way better! I kinda liked how Plastidip gave a satin finish opposed to gloss or matte.

    I'm pretty much set on 285/75r16 and I'd have to get wheel spacers to clear, which for an extra $400 I could just have a new set of wheels in the color and style I want.

    I peeled and red upped mine once a year and it lasted fine, even over heavily salted passes, only thing that effected mine was getting new tires (mounting/ remounting etc) in LA you should be fine.

    Are those tires 285's?

    I hear ya. I considered the same, but my gas mileage isn't great, and I don't want it to get ridiculously worse. That way all I'm looking at is bigger tires, not tires plus wheels.
