    Tinted the front windows to match the back. Was thinking about putting the vinyl decals on the factory wheels to black it out a little more. What do you think?

    it takes hours to install the wheel vinyls. not worth it. Its probably easier to buy aftermarket wheels

    Do the vinyls! Only takes a few hours. This is my second set installed couple days ago. Had em on my 18 before as well. You won't regret it. $40, a few hours and it will make your truck look outstanding.

    For $40 bucks they aren't bad but mine did start flaking in a few spots in short order. I forgot where I got them from but I also got the red trd center cap stickers and they broke up all the black and complimented it really well.

    BE9BE103-C9C3-4D74-9BCF-B605193A694F.jpg Do it till you get new wheels like I did, I was very happy with the end results and changes the whole truck. For around $40 and a couple of beers in the process nice little project to do

    I bought some from Amazon and some pieces became undone. Looks good but not really worth the hassle.
