    I forgot the P/N for the emblem, but you can order it just about anywhere. For me, Camelback Toyota had the best prices. I went the quick easy route to attach mine, just drilled a couple hole in between the letters and used a small bolt and nut to attach to mesh, painted the bolts black of course. Aesthetically its not the cleanest, but if you didn't know the bolts were there, you wouldn't be able to pick them out.

    Hello everyone! Hoping to get some help here on my 2015 OffRoad MGM. First time posting on this thread as I didn't get a lot of help posting in all of the forums.

    I am looking to give it a little more aggressive stance. I don't want anything too crazy. Should I just do a leveling kit to put 18" wheels and 33" tires on it?
    Was thinking bilstien 5100 in the front and maybe block in the back? If there is a better option please help!

    My current setup:

    Are "looks" more important to you than "ride quality & functionality"? If yes, block lift. If no, then look in the Suspension section as there are dozens of setups (OME, Bilstein w/OME springs, KINGS, Icon, Fox, ADS, etc.) that might fit your needs. Typical setup is 3" lift, and people pair 33" tires with 16" or 17" wheels; but ultimately its up to you. On a 3" lift with 33" tires, trimming will probably be necessary and a cab-mount chop may also be necessary...but that depends on wheel combo.

    Never did post in this thread.

    But not much has changed since this pictures besides adding a 30" Heretic Lightbar on the Prinsu Rack...

    It is about to have a set of RCI Sliders, a OME Lift, SCS Ray10's and some 32" Tires though...

    Ride quality is a big thing. This is my daily driver so I don't want to take that down. I don't want to go the cheap route. Would this do what I need? http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-5-FRONT-1...ash=item23683ff999:g:cKIAAOSwcwhVQtSe&vxp=mtr

    A pic from last week checking if my front tires rub my fenders when bottomed out after trimming the inner lip. It is good so far.

    Man that looks good! Now that you have done it, in your opinion how hard was it to do?

    A lot. Check out my build page.
    I did mine a couple months ago. I did the BHLM with the MGM color matched paint. Looks amazing and it's actually quite easy.

    Just go overkill on the butyl and you're good to go.

    Thanks!

    The hardest part was honestly separating the lens from the body. After taking the first light out of the oven, I was being careful and slowly working my way around pulling the housing apart. BIG MISTAKE, the sealant was stuck good after being in the oven, but yet able to be pulled apart with force. I ended up throwing it back in for a couple minutes to loosen the sealant and it came apart.

    Didn't have a problem on the second light, as I just went for it. Painting and reassembling the lights was easy. Definitely try it! Worse case scenario is you have to go and order lights.

    Honestly if you want to be around level or a little bit of lift, talk to Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road.
    There is a Bilstein package that she sells that many people get and they seem really pleased with it. I went full OME so I can speak on be half of that kit, but i did read a lot of good reviews.

    I'm not sure if that comes with coils. A lot of folks would recommend this
