    1st day of truck ownership. 2004 SR5, auto, 4 cyl, 4X4, Access Cab, 19K miles, Radiant Red.

    Drove to the nearest dealer today. The parts guy had an OEM hood protector in stock so I bought it. Was supposed to be a quick and easy screw-on app. Ended up taking me half a day along with some Super Glue and a heat gun, lol.

    I want to buy some black powdercoated tubular step rails. Would prefer bolt-on, but will take whatever is best. What do you guys recommend? Westin?
