    I guess I could run over to homedepot and pickup oh maybe 3 or 4 cans of matte black Plasti-Dip!

    As soon as it hits my driveway, Plasti-Dipping I will go!!

    The badges, fender flares, and the front valance/plastic piece where the license plate mounts.

    Emailed them, said they should have a set for the Access Cab by the end of the year!

    I went with the Toyota Black Cast Aluminum Running Boards, didn't want to wait.

    WHEELS HAVE BEEN DELIVERED!!!

    I received my Matte Black Vinyl Letters for the tailgate "TACOMA"

    Black Lug Nuts

    And today my TRD Pro Matte Black Wheels!!! One box had a tear in it, bottom side of box, about four inches long. Opened and inspected, slight rub/scratch on the backside/inside of the rim.

    Haven't opened the other three yet, they have no visible damage, but I'll check them just incase.

    Also gave the lugs a test fit, don't like the way the rims shows. Do I need washers? Thinking maybe after install I'll give'm a shot of plasti-dip.? Not sure what others have done.

    Called my local Leather Interior installer for a price check. Leather and Heated Seats w/Hi-Low settings

    Front Seats Only (Driver/Passenger Seats) = $1,400 + $87.50 Tax - - Total $1,487.50

    Front & Back Seats (Driver/Passenger Heated) = $1,693 + $105.81 Tax

    Total for Front & Back: $1,798.81

    I might just do the front, but who knows, got plenty of time to decide.

    Don't want a solid Black for sure, and definitely thinking about going with a two-tone. Have to see what goes well with the interior color.

    Leather jump seats in the back, that's an interesting idea.

    UPS delivered my AVS Hood Bugflector II as well as the AVS In-Channel Window Visors

    Same ones my Dealership uses, I'll get their installed price to compare prices.

    Almost crapped my pants when I opened the door and saw the two boxes leaning against my house.

    Window visor box looked untouched. Hood Shield looked like they put it in the Gorrilla Cage, and the Box lost.

    It was squished/crumpled banged up and looked severely abused.

    BUT TO MY DISMAY NO DAMAGE

    Glad, sure, but from the look of the box I expected it to come out in numerous pieces!

    Part number: AVS Bugflector II: LND-25681

    part number: AVS In-Channel Window Visors (2) This is for the Access Cab LND-192430

    What is the Dipping plan? Badges, fender flares, ???

    If you've never dipped before checkout a couple YouTube vids first. One site, I think it's call Dipmycar, the guy Fonzie, he dips everything, and gives excellent how-to demonstrations. Plus they sell just about every color imaginable. They carry everything Plasti-Dip makes.

    Pulled the trigger, last nite ordered the Skid Plate by Bullet Proof Fabricating.

    Good sale right now, $230 for the Skid Plate w/10% Off and you get their Heavy Duty Tow Hook, a $100.00 value for FREE!!! (Shipping was $45, think the plate weighs around 30 Lbs)

    They also have 15% Off on everything/anything else they fabricate/sell. Can't remember the 15% discount code. You'll have to checkout their website. Think the 15% end this weekend.

    So far, just planning on the grill. Maybe the door badges, if I like how the grill comes out. Sounds like you've got a lot of work to do on yours when it comes in!

    Good for you!

    Yes and No, it's a lot of work, but I can't really call it "work" when it's so much Fun! First time I used Plasti-Dip, I was like Say What...... You spray an inch or two around the badge.....WHAT...... Couldn't believe you actually spray part of the car, not just the badge. That's crazy, but sure enough when you remove your tape it's pulls/cuts exactly around the badges. Almost like magic! LOL

    Although with letters like an A or 0 you use a toothpick and peel out the center. Still easy!

    On a difficulty scale of 1-5 it's Definitely a 1, Easy Peasy!

    Thanks for the tip, tomorrow I'll check it thoroughly, the hood one, the window visor box was in perfect condition.
