What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Congratulations! Owning a vehicle outright is a darn good feeling

 

Its the Ultra-Groove from Pace Edward's

 

Really?

 

finished with the meso chrome delete last night. all the chrome i wanted gone in the cab is done!

 

Thanks! Yes it is.

 

That looks good. I’m jealous not only the blackout but how clean the interior is. My poor truck is awful. The salt and crap I have tracked in has made it a mess. Hurry spring and come I just want to have a clean truck.

 

I think you left one more chrome out...

 

Installed TRD headlights, fog lights and rear lights. Was able to do the headlights with a conversion kit from theretrofitsource. I had to remove the bumper and that’s what took the longest, about a three hour job.

 

i know what you're referring to

actually have two more to do, the steering wheel logo and the glovebox lock. if they made them in all black they would've been done already, and right now i don't feel like going the overlay or sticker routes...

 

Congratulations I love the wheels and tires, good lookin truck and its all yours now

 

thanks! it's hard to keep a black interior clean, it shows dirt, dust and everything else very easily.

 

Nice work! Looks awesome!

 

I have the black interior also and no matter how careful I am to keep the windows up on the dusty fire roads leading to the trails as soon as I open my door it’s like a vacuum effect and just sucks in the dust. Once I’m out of the truck and I shut the door it’s like a big cloud of dust, kind of reminds me of Pigpen on the old peanuts cartoons. I usually end up wiping everything down at least once a week.

 

Just installed the sound deadening in the doors. Did you guys put the plastic back on? The stuff that was attached with that black rubber adhesive. Looks like it was the original sound barrier (with the carpet) but would it do any harm if I didn't put that plastic back on?

Also, I've searched and watched vids and can't tell if people do both sides of the inside of the door. (If that makes sense). Basically you reach inside the door and do the back wall but there is the side facing you inside the door, then I did the outside of the door. Is it redundant to line both sides of the inside of the door?

 

Thanks. I'm very happy with how things are progressing. I need an even more updated pic as a have a few other things added plus an Eibach lift on the way.

 

I got the same kit to make install when I put the OEM Audio + system a lot easier. I had no idea about the tools because I must have opened the box upside down. Thanks for the heads up on those!

 

i've always thought it'd be awesome if truck manufacturers would make the interiors totally wash and play. like neoprene seats, rhino line (or something similar) the floors (with drain plugs to wash out the dirt) and ceiling, make the dash and door panels sealed so they are waterproof or at least water resistant, and whatever else they could do to make a truck wash and play and have a cool rugged look...

 

Those are called “Jeeps”...

 

There's also the chrome on the L/R mirror button I believe. If you wanna get real picky lol.

 

okay, maybe toyota should have a "wash and play" package option?!
