    Thanks guys! The carbon fiber is just a vinyl decal. I have had it on all summer and it has not peeled or bubbled or slipped or anything. Just apply it right the first time and it will last a long time and look good too. I like it because it adds good color contrast to the dash and gives a custom look without looking cheap or like a stupid sticker from pep boys. Like I said just Apply it right and it looks OEM. The only thing better is to actually hydro dip those panels to give an actual permanent resurfacing. I'll eventually have that done but it'll be probably a hundred bucks or so plus I'll have to have the panels sent out. Well see, maybe one day.

    Very nice...You dont have a lift either right? How are you liking your BGF A/T? I'm shopping around for tires and I wont be able to get a lift for while. I need to keep the truck low since my wife is pregnant and need to be able to get in and out without problem. I like the look of them on your truck and the pic of them sticking out to the side even more.

    Yeah Jerez is correct. 1.75" lift up front just to level it. As far as tires go, I absolutely love these ones. They are quiet and smooth on the street but have gotten me through quite a few sticky situations off road too. Have amazing grip in just about any condition.

    Thanks for the responses. I'm new to all of this and there's a lot of information to know and learn from this forums. Again, thanks.

    Hey man I'm thinking of doing the same lift. Can you tell me a little more about it, it looks like you put after market ucas. Are the springs stock? Also I'm not familiar with the leaf in the rear. Thanks in advance.

    The UCAs are stock along with spindles and LCAs and springs. Only thing that was changed was the shock itself. I have the front set at 1.75" which is perfect for me. Any higher and I'd recommend UCAs. The "tsb" leaf pack is from Toyota. TSB stands for technical service bulletin. If your under warranty, and go complain about a harsh ride while towing and/or bottoming out on the rear end, then they replace you 3 leaf pack with a 4 leaf pack. If you have the 3 pack and not under warranty, you can just buy an add a leaf "aal" and it will be the same.

    I am extremely satisfied with the setup. I don't too too much major off road, but when I do, it holds up well enough. I like a very soft plush ride, so this setup really isn't designed to handle any extreme off road. But its SOOO smooth for regular everyday driving. Its perfect for me.

    Another thing to consider, I am using stock springs from a Sport which are progressive (start soft and get stiffer) :spy: but if you have an Off-road package then you have digressive coils which are more stiff then get soft. Personally I like the Sport coils WAY better, both both are nice

    Thanks! The lights have multiple purposes, the main one being offroad. But it also comes in handy for other things too. I have actually made many upgrades and changes since this thread has been updated last. I'll get some new pics up soon
