That's bad ass

So the fenders and hood are one piece now?

 

Yup but it's heavy as a MOFO! Probably too much body filler

 

Insane! Hope he has the hood struts lol

 

Got damn!

Alright! Small update!
The DTF kit is trickling in now, have about half of it but still missing 1-2 boxes. Guy at the post office had a "funny story" of his coworker not being able to lift the box so she left it in a crate that got returned to the last distribution center.. says it will be here in 4-5 days lol

Good news is I got a bunch of the other parts and I get to admire them for a week or two. They're a lot bigger than expected but that's good. Kings coilovers look good! Here's a pic with a dip can for reference size since they're pretty standard lol

Will be taking half the parts to get powder coated next week probably and the rest whenever they get here. Anybody have a color recommendation?

 

Who did your glasswork?? On island??

 

Not my truck just extending the front bumper to match the glass. Not sure but I think it was Tenorio auto body. They didn't do a good job in my opinion. A lot of the screws they used to hold the fiberglass are coming out by hand so we may make some new mounts to secure the glass

 

Dont you just love redoing other peoples "half-ass" work!

 

As long as I get paid my worth I'll redo everyone's work

 

Looks good, can't wait to see it all put together... but Cope Straight?!? Wintergreen FTW!

 

I was planning on doijng it this weekend after i got all the parts back from powder coating but i broke my foot lol The shop thats done some of the other work will be installing it today and tomorrow so should be updating soon!

 

How did you break your foot!

 

@Bobby18 hope that foot gets better. We probably won't be seeing that taco at this weekend's cruise huh. On another note

 

If it gets finished in time ill be out there driving left footed lol broke it last sunday playing lacrosse

I will be updating soon! was going to have a bunch of pics from the install but im not doing it anymore so will have to wait

 

Get better soon man. Look forward to seeing your rig completed!

 

Front install is all completed! Everything is mounted and next step is reinforcing everything so won't be doing anything too crazy until then! Also need to get the new bumps installed until I move a bypass up front with it.
Here's so pics of it from night time I'll get better ones soon once it's all clean!
Let me know what you think about the blue powder coat, it's a gritty, no shine type that matches the king coils better in person and thought it'd add a little to the kit!

 

Looks good!

 

Goals af

 

Just letting you know that uca is going to destroy that resi hose. Very poor place to mount it. @DTFtacoma

 

Good point! I usually go under the UCA for that reason. @Bobby18 be sure to check with your installer if they double checked clearance.

I didn't install it. @anthony250f
