GTABurnouts Radiant Red CCSB TRD OR

So OKLED had a picture contest. I got luckly and won a set of there 4" LED Lights.





I had no clue where to put them since the new goal of the truck was to avoid any major visual changes unless a full on bumper was decided on.

So stealth was the name of the game.

I had just put on a 2011 grill about a month ago and with the more open design the ideas started coming.

Some scrap metal and some time I came up with a kinda cool mount shooting out the grilll...

 

No drilling using stock holes and fasteners.

 

Man, I love this truck. You're handy has hell. Well done, sir!

How does the rear bumper look up close? (I'm sure it looks great, just surprised that that would work.)

 

Very nice build going on here! I love those tires, almost went with them...

 

Bumper looks good up close. The nice thing is with the bed liner you don't need to have a perfect finish since the paint has a textured finish. It does get knicked up after some good dirt miles but I just mask off the truck and respray it just like I respray the sliders.

Thanks, I love the look of the MTR's. They are definitely the largest 285's I have ever seen. I have some rubbing issues with them at full bump.

 

Is there a reason you are running wheels spacers? Are you doing it for the look or because of rubbing issues?

 

Very nice build. I feel encouraged to try that light bar install in the near future.

 

Hey Hunter, are you going to order a tire carrier from Avid?

 

I am not running wheel spacers. For some reason people keep asking me this and I can not for the life of me figure out why.

Thanks the light bar install was easy. I love it its clean and protected. I do plan to jup to a 30" in the future.

Up in the air right now. I wanted a tiore carrier since I can not get my spare to fit underneath. But now that Mike is doing some fab work I may go with his stuff.

 

Truck looks good. Were you at the dirty heads show a couple weeks ago?

 

I don't think so but where was it maybe I was close for some reason....

 

I love the wheel/tire combo, how are the tires wearing?

 

Suprisingly well. I heard people get 30-40K out of these and I believe it. best part is off road they have yet to chunk or have any issues.

 

you got a chance to test them out in soft sand?

 

Nice truck. You did a great job with the pics and story from beginning. LED bar write up is really good.

 

Not deep sand but they air down nice and have huge lugs so I would suspect they should be decent.

Thanks.

 

Hmmm.... you seem to be missing the skewp


Looks good man! Rad Red FTMFW

 

No skewp FTW IMO

Nice looking truck absoulty like the color.

 

I would take a skewp if it was free but I am not going to look for one. Kinda like the simple off road hood.

Love the red, it was the main reason I kept the truck and didn't trade it in on a new 11' back when I first got it.

Thanks

 

Truck looks awesome! My first car was red and sometimes I wish I had gotten a red Taco!

Btw, what camera/lens do you shoot with? The pics are so clean!
