    Recently upgraded from my '02 DC to a 2012 Baja. This will be a slow build, while trying to maintain that 'clean' look. And mainly to track my own progress and for whoever else to enjoy.

    The day i brought it home.

    Latest purchase is the sport grille, which really improves the front end appearance

    Next on the list is a little more lift, 285s, sliders, etc.

    I'm actually happy with the factory suspension, so Ive got the Baja 1" front spacer and 1.5" block on order for now since im not gonna offroad this truck for a while. Ill eventually replace the blocks for Dakars but for now just wanting to clear 285s.

    Small mod. Mounted my ultragauge above my rear view mirror with a simple mount. Out of the way and still easily accessible.

    Installed Clazzio leather seat covers today. Definitely improves the look of the interior and are very comfortable. Luckily they had these in stock and arrived in 5 days. Color matches basically perfect.

    Since they were part of their in-stock inventory, they were just called 'grey.' But i would guess they are 'light grey' since they technically have light and dark choices. The pics have bad lighting but they match the interior great
