    I haven't been on TW too much recently but have been keeping the build/trips up on Instagram. I just updated the mod list and will get some recent photos up soon!

    How similar are the greys from body color to wheel color? Some pics ive seen wheels look slightly darker and some pics wheels look more silver. Looking for a little contrast but think gunmetal might be too dark. Idk there are two grey blems up for sale and vin said he'd help me secure two more in December. Ibe heard these wheels go pretty quick so not sure best way to go. Dig this truck alot similar to mine thanks for your time

    Sorry for the long response- I was out on a trip. The wheels match up perfectly and look amazing. I would grab them for sure, and I think they may be just a bit easier to get because I don't think 16" matte gray's are the highest demand wheel they sell.

    It does need bigger tires for sure. The plan is to get some 255's once these wear out, but they've still got a bit of life left! And I love the Tepui, it's really well made and sets up super easy. I may want to go to a hardshell in a couple of years, but I can't get myself to sacrifice the space the soft shells offer, especially at the price.

    Here's a snapshot as I begin to revive the build thread! This is from the Mojave Road with Overland Bound in October 2017. The RCI bed rack and Pelfreybilt rear bumper had just been added.

    Any chance you've got a pic or your truck? I have seen a MGM 3rd gen around town with a RCI bed rack and black cover Tepui RTT but they were already installed- unless you meant you just had the bumper uninstalled. That's a sweet setup too, basically the same as my truck, just a gen newer!

    Sorry, I didn't phrase that well. Yes, just the front bumper is not installed. All else is. I'll message ya about the bumper install. Cheers.
