    Hello! First post on here! First truck I've owned. I previously owned a Mazda 6 and had that heavily modified, but it wasn't practical for my passion of mountain biking (mainly riding downhill at bike parks) unfortunately I broke my collarbone into 4 pieces and have surgery Wednesday, so off work for two weeks. In that time I plan to read as much as I can and maybe try doing easy mods 1 handed.

    I bought it with running boards, rain vents, and the seatbelt noise cancellation mod done (clutch when being driven home for 2 hours to the hospital after I fell.)
    Here it is when I was first checking it out.

    Here it is cleaned up the day I bought it:

    I have gone over it meticulously with touch up paint, plasti dipped the lower valence, threw on a raceface tailgate pad, and ordered husky x-act contour mats.

    To do Next is tail light mod, anytime fog light mod, pinstripe removal, tint, paint my wheels black, and a new oil free air filter.

    Now time to recover. Question: should I create a build thread to update? Or update this one? Thanks!
