    Needs more cowbell.
    I finally got this done last night too. How did you end up cutting the reverse light housing? I used a soder and it was not pretty. May end up getting a set of pros and rethinking the approach.
    But wholly bright though!:laser:

    Hot Knife method. Took me about an hour per side. Probably longer than it should have been but i wanted to make sure I was careful in cutting it. When you heat up the knife, you'll only get about 2 seconds of a good cut before the knife cools off which is why it took so long.

    In addition, there were little plastic bits that did get into the housing. So I used a plastic straw with some tape to get it out which worked out pretty well.

    I was on the fence between both of them last year. I ultimately went with the FN FX Pro and love them. Now, if I would have been shopping around when Toyota had the 40th Anniv sale, I would have gone with the Sema wheels

    Looks good! Removing the front spoiler really changes the look at the front end! :thumbsup: One of the first things I did and no noticeable change in MPG.

    They will usually assume you want the black wall side out unless you ask for the lettered side out.

    Anybody know where i can get the black fender flares that are on the "off road" package for my 2019 sport 4x4 (6ft bed)? I really like that look. Thanks!

    I've read that some that have the off road like the matched painted flares vs the black. Maybe you could find someone in your area that would want to swap out. Just a thought.

    Suggestion - Take off your flares and "paint" them with bedliner.
