    Alright doll-face, c'mon and bore me!
    Could someone please point me to the thread that details how to do this (parts needed, route for hose up into tail light, etc.)?

    I would search for it myself, but I know I'd run into all kinds of cool stuff on the way and would end up killing a day or more...

    Did you paint your wheels? Or is that vinyl?

    I didn't really know where to post this question, but I was wondering what this part is that is rusting so noticbly? I can't really identify what it is, and was wondering if the rust that can be seen is something to be concerned about. The truck is just over two years old. Any input is appreciated, thank you!

    Front Diff subframe bracket? That's pretty oxidized for two years... salted roads up there probably don't help. Perhaps talk to Toyota about that?

    These look great on the truck but do they actually sit down on the hood of the truck and touch the paint? Does that bump actually deflect wind/bugs up over the windshield? We have a lot of bugs up near me. A LOT!

    The bump seems to deflect bugs pretty well. They’re attached with 3M tape...only the tape touches paint.

    Interesting. So is there a gap between the deflector and the hood. Is it completely sealed by the tape or does water get down in between there? I have used deflectors in the past on other vehicles but never any that were affixed to the hood. My concern is moisture, then in the winter ice, or dirt, etc and how that might be bad for the paint. Back in the day, those fake leather bra's were all the rage until the people that installed them took them off to find the area under them permanently damaged. They were then forced to buy new and run them all the time. I guess I feel like this is one of those once you do this you will always have this mods. Not a bad thing if there is no damage as a result but I have to wonder.

    I do hate having to clean my windshield daily with a scrubby pad though. Did I mention we have a lot of bugs?
