Are there any deals or group buys on TRD front skids.

 

Foam gun fun.

 

I got em for free from despized, he said they are genuine ford raptor lights. they fit sung in the trd pro grill.

 

Plasti dip. Had it left over from my emblem

 

My truck has been a filthy whore for weeks. I mean just covered in mud. Despite getting rain on and off all day, I managed to get it washed, then parked in the garage to wax it and.....
Oh, what happened here?



Yeah. This looks much better here.

 

Banished the chrome.

 

Plastidipped? Planning on doing this to minein like a week or so. Any tips?

 

Where can get them?

 

More of the fox2.5 and total chaos uca

 

Busy day. Added a few things and ordered a couple more.

Put in the Vehicle OCD console tray.


Then put the OEM door sill guards I picked up from the dealership.
Front

Back


Put the OEM bed mat in I picked up.


And also put a Smittybuilt hitch shackle on


My N-Fab Podium step rails should be here by the first of the week.

My OEM TACOMA tailgate lettering should be in mid week from the dealership. And I ordered Weathertech floor liners, Mud flaps and the color match lettering for the door sill protectors.

Also went and ordered a ARE Z-Series topper which should be here in three weeks.

Not sure what I'm going for next. Probably a light bar and mount and probably some different headlight but I don't want to do HID or LED conversions so I'm gonna have to look into Silverstarts or Sylvania bright whites.

Amazon.

I ordered them for all the way around. Figured they were worth a shot for that price.

Black Off Road Scene Easy Fit Mud Guard 11" - Set of 2

$34 PLASTICOLOR 000543R01 Black Off Road Scene Easy Fit Mud Guard 11" - Set of 2

Dipped. Only significant because my first attempt came out blotchy (bad nozzle or product too cold) and I had to strip it all off and redo. Peeled, picked, pressure washed, WD-40d. What a pain in the ass but it came out great.

And no front plate for as long as I can get away with it.

 

Yep. Plastidip. If you haven't used it before, it's very forgiving. First coat go light. About 50% coverage. I did four coats after that, each full coverage. I let each dry 20 minutes. I pulled off the tape while the last coat was still wet.
Cleanup was easy. I just used some goo gone on a rag to clean up any overspray. It comes right up.
After pulling the tape up, I noticed a piece of tape had covered some chrome, so I just retapped that small section and hit it with a couple of coats.
One great tip is to keep the spray can in warm water. That makes the mist very fine and keeps it from clumping. Do a test spray on some paper before each coat to make sure the nozzle is clear.

 

Where were these a year ago when I was digging Plasti-dip off of mine?

 

It is the color matched Blazing Blue Pearl spray from automotivetouchup.com. I think the code is 8T0 regardless, but don't hold me to that. I think I had to use a Yaris search to get the code for BBP to come up at the time, since the truck was just hitting the lots, but it should be there now. Everything should be in the first post, or early parts of this thread, but it has been a while, so feel free and ask if you need anything
