What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thanks.
Yeah, gonna work on interior stuff tomorrow.

 

Yeah they seem a bit high for bare metal. I’m guessing powder coating that much would be somewhere between 2-400$ no idea though

 

People with the pro tail lights - are you finding them off people via takeoffs or are you getting them from parts.toyota when they run sales?


Edit: seems like I found them from a dealership, $280 shipped for the pair. Seems like a good price.

 

Just got a new set of tires put on after my Wildpeaks lasted a solid 60,000 miles. Got the Falken Rubitreks this time around, same size, same specs, but they were $143/per which was a steal and so far definitely better for what I need.

Took the truck cap off and put the tonneau cover back on.

Cleaned the truck exterior for the first time in awhile too.

 

Mine is a solid consistent of 256miles to empty

 

you can blur your plate but i'll have to see ya around on Race Point some day

 

Dang that’s a good looking truck, nice steal on those tires too!

 

Installed LED headlights. Also darkened the grille emblem with some tinting film and really like the result. Had looked at a pro grille to get rid of the chrome logo but I'll be sticking with the TRD grill now that the shine has been knocked down.

 

Haven't really kept up with the miles to empty reading when I fill up (typically my screen is either on mpg or current track) but I generally get about 18.5-20.2 by the end of each tank.

 

Yeah I got no idea why mine is so trashy maybe bc I have a short drive to work? I average 13-14mpg stock

 

Was throwing some rust converter on roof rack bolts and I figured I'd take a peek under the truck, good thing I did. Body mount chop welds had some surface rust. Didn't take a before pic, but check your BMCs!

Lots of dirt, the clean area is the BMC with the converter on it. I'll hit it with some Rust-Oleum black tomorrow.

 

That's crazy. There's nothing in those things that justifies their price.

 

Thank You Easter Bunny

Best Easter Basket I’ve ever had!

 

Anyone else hate the TRD OR stock rims? #Metoo



Plasti dip to the rescue, for a temporary fix...

 

I am with you. Mine came off within 3 days. Kept the tires though. They are now in boxes in my garage storage.

 

Finally completed all of the front seat components. Just couldn’t fold up the original lower rear seat back material underneath the new cover very well. It was attached to a black plastic panel which appeared to be a little too wide to tuck under the cover, so I cut off about 2 inches off either end and then was able to shove it under.
Attaching the 4 lower flaps to the Velcro also gave me fits. Had to unbolt the seats and lean them forward to pull hard enough on the flaps, then hold my foot down on them one by one, then pull hard on the back panel to get them to reach. The headrests were easy compared to that procedure.
Anyway, all is done and I am happy with the new look.

I went with HP3 for the map lights.

Wasn’t sure if the next level up would be too bright for my liking.
