    how hard of an install would this be?

    just got done installing Spiker hood struts, it's simple enough but had to get my son to pop the rivets. He and I don't have Gorilla hands, even he stuggled

    Other than the rivnut? 10min. Depending on the rivnut installation method, another 15min, including beers?

    One fastener to remove. Two fasteners to install the final part.



    There is also a nutplate included so you don't have to use the rivnut.

    Tonored, thanks for the reply. I've kept my eye on these for a while but was hesitant to pre-order early on, Guess I'll have to go check it out further.

    You're welcome!

    On my end, I did wait a while also. But, seeing the molds had me feeling confident.

    Being a bit familiar with 3D printing, the pics with the printed parts and final textured parts also gives me confidence that the final parts will look good / match.


    In the end, we just need more info about the stages in the process.

    hopefully you can help me this question, I see there are 2 colors, Black or Gray. is that the Dark Grey or is it a light gray color. Pretty sure we don't have a black a-pillar. Don't know tacoma's well so I hope no one thinks I'm nuts or something, lol

    See the photos above for a comparison. It's basically dark gray (charcoal) and light gray (almost tan)

    From what I recall, the SRs and SR5s are a lighter grey. Everything else is a dark gray that is closer to black.

    I'm not certain why the model is being asked when ordering. All that is needed is the color choice.

    lol, okay. Does this mean, they have 3 colors available? Light Gray, Charcoal Gray and Black? I've taken a look on the preOrder list and most everyone with a TRD Sport Dbl Cab ordered the Black color. Owners with the SR SR5 ordered the Gray color.

    I have a 2020 TRD Sport Dbl Cab with a pillar handle that resembles a Charcoal color and ordered the Gray, I'm confused what color I'm gonna get. I'd want the pillar/handle to match my passenger side if possible

    Are you saying I need to use the Black colored handle/pillar if my current setup is Charcoal colored?

    If you ordered B0-GREY, you are going to get the wrong color.

    See the pics here:
