What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Just picked up the new Weathertech Alloy Cover and RekGen XL mud flaps. Will post pictures soon.

 

Very nice. If mine was 4x4 I would copy that setup. Looks great.

 

Washed the Pro! Then bought it a project Jeep! The Jeep is just a toy, something to work on!

 

Steering wheel wrap link, or at least brand?

 

Installed Xpel PPF on the bumper, fenders, hood, headlights and mirrors. Tinted all windows including windshield with their new ceramic window film.

 

So much done since first posted pic but I just got the new grill on.

 

Do they offer different colors for the letters or are they all in white?

 

Not a good day. I figure someone has made the same mistake I did today.

In preparation of getting my BHLM headlights from motorsport36 (finally) I wanted to get started tonight. I used the following video to guide me with removal of lights. BEWARE for those who have not tried this. At the 2:30 mark in video, they make it look so easy to loosen the bumper!

I tried to follow their technique and the whole back plate came with it.

I was able to release the bottom part , BUT THAT PLASTIC PLATE IS NOT SUPPOSED TO COME WITH THE BUMPER. IF YOU CONTINUE PULLING THE TOP, YOU WILL SNAP THE PLATE ATTACHED WHERE THE BOLT IS CONNECTED TO THE HEADLIGHT.

With my run of bad luck it snapped the plastic ON THE HEADLIGHT!



I think I’ll be able to salvage the plates with superglue hopefully.



So the trick seems to be to release the 3 tabs along edge of front bumper

This is from left side. You can see rectangular notch behind red plug ( this is the lowest part).

If this helps one person I’ll feel better.

UPDATE 12/5/18: THANKS TO @20tacoma17, HE HELPED ME FIND THE PLASTIC PLATES ON AMAZON. SET FOR AROUND $50. *** THESE ARE NOT OEM. I WAS SURPRISED TO GET OEM FROM DEALER FOR $60/set!

Right is OEM (driver side)


Here is part number for passenger side

 

Out with the 550x15, in with the 650x16

 

Nice! What tailights are those?

 

I’ve noticed at 65 it gets 21 for me and at 75 it goes down to 18. Car loves the 55-65 range but not so much the 75-85

 

Nice haven’t seen those before, what brand?

 

Thank you.

 

Looks awesome! What lift and tire size? Thanks

 

It is a sliver back plate. Easy to take off. I will paint it to match the grey of the truck next.

 

X-Trek grille insert en route
(I’ll post pics on my truck once I get it this week)

Finally lifted it!

 

Yeah, I checked my tires and they are sitting at 31 psi, I’m going to jack it up to 40, maybe to much.....but my wallet is hating me right now and it’s seriously fucking with my ability to put mods on my truck.

 

Does SCS offer those decals for the wheels or is that custom?
