    I agree with @outxider

    You should definitely finish that up! Id love to see the way a double cab would look with the XR body kit. Might end up making me convert mine..

    Yes those are good to go. It’s the green clip that I constantly have to push back in. Especially after hitting speed bumps lol.

    Haven't had that happen to me yet ... you could always replace those green clips and see if that helps?

    If they are the super Chinese ones that came with the aftermarket fillers, they won't work properly. Forewarning to people who get the aftermarket fillers, the push clips suck. I had the same problem. Mine wouldn't even clip in. It's gotta be OEM or fashion some redneck plastic contraption out of other retainer clips like I did. :)

    Why did you ditch your off-road bumper?

    Always loved the clean look of a hidden winch. Also LOVED the look of the 2012 front end including the oem bumper

    Mostly. Except for the under headlight trim piece, fog lights and some clips.
