Lunar Rock Gen III Thread

After months of waiting....Yota is finally home.

 

Mine arrives next week.

 

Stop bragging lol I’m still waiting haha

 

@lsrmath congrats on picking up your LR Taco. Its a fantastic looking ride with many upgrades possible. Can't wait to see what you do to it.

 

Just got this 23 sport w 6ft bed. Had many trucks (full size GM’s) but wanted a Tacoma. Rpod is (3,600 lbs dry) but hitch weight is a little over 500lbs when loaded. Going to figure out the tire nut roll…thinking 265/70/17 AT of some kind. Snugtop Highliner in bound and will be over landing in it when not hauling Pod. Cali raised shields arrived as well as bedrug w/tailgate part for dog. Pics will follow when snugtop arrives. Nice to be on the Lunar Thread. So many great looking rides

First complete wash since I bought it new 5 weeks ago, and added two new mods to my LR.

Undercover Ultraflex trifold hard tonneau, and TRD style pro grill with “rare” black lettering. Truck drives even better now than it did new….LOL, it seems too anyways….

 

OEM Grill?

 

Well, kind of. I just got these. Will probably go with Toyo AT3 265/75-16.

 

No not a OEM grille, I wanted black letters and Toyota OEM only have silver or bronze.

I got lucky though, this is pretty well made but inexpensive. Letters fit well, screw on type versus the OEM type that use tape adhesive.

On the install I used one thin washer and everything worked on the first try. No errors on the on the tss sensor cruise and lane departure radar all checked out.

This cost about $125, and I was worried on how it was going to work. In the end it fit great and no issues.

Super happy with it. I got it from KOK (not a great name….and the website states no instructions included), but in the end a good result.

 

@Crash415 dig the way you have the wheel set up, for a second you had me fooled thinking it was installed. Just for a second. The Bronze goes well with the Lunar Rock.

 

I agree... I was liking the bronze already... this really makes me think some may be in my future. I have thought about temporarily using vinyl of a copper/bronze shade to go over the metallic portions of my OEM Sport wheels. Tide me over until I can get something I really want! Your wheels look great!

 

I debated a long time between black and bronze. I'll have pictures when I get tires, which will be from my local Discount Tire.

 

How is the lunar rock paint on yours here? I just picked up mine and while detailing for the first time found I have several spots of dust in the clear coat scattered around

 

My paint looked fine, but i do have 60+ something old man eyes.

if i found imperfections in one of my past Porsches, I would be upset, but this is a truck, and like my Jeeps in the past, I can live with them as is.

I already have two scratches in my black fender flare/wheel molding, my fault got too close to shelf when parking in the garage, told my wife they were rattlesnake bites. She flipped out, asked why snakes were biting the truck, and told me to call an exterminator….LOL, not kidding she really did!

 

Did you get it from Serra or Bill Penney?

 

No, I’m picking up in Georgia on Friday or Saturday.

 

Will put these on after winter/salt leave my area, shorty hopefully.

Have it a bath too. Ceramic coating at work

 

Anyone running Method 703's in Gloss Titanium? Pics would be appreciated!!

 

Those should look pretty good on a LR.

I have been trying to find pics of a LR with the silver trd pro wheels myself.

Everyone seems to go with black, or now bronze wheels.

 

I think black and bronze certainly looks good but would also be interested in seeing silver as I’ve been thinking about switching mine up for something different.
