    So I've decided that my insomnia will not cut me a break tonight so what better to do than start my build thread finally. Anyways so back story I had a 2013 AC in magnetic grey 4x4 4 banger small but little fucker got the job done. Anyways one day the cat went bad so I took it to the dealership to get fixed as they were fixing it I starting looking around and saw a 2015 TRD Sport DCLB 4x4 I told myself I didn't need a new truck because I was still paying off my old one...I went home and regretted the decision so I went back the next day traded in my 2013(good trade in value also) and took the 2015. I went with the sport because sure the OR had the extra OR shit but im usually just taking easy trails and mudding occasionally so I don't thing it was all necessary plus I like the color matched extras.

    What's Done:
    The most Drastic thing is probably the 6 Inch RC DB lift(I know not the best but at 19 with school loans and other shit it's all I could afford.)

    BushWacker Pocket style fender flares (will eventually color match)

    35x12.5x17 Genral Grabbers

    17 Fuel Revolvers

    Dual 50 Inch Radius Bars (G&G lighting brackets bought them before I knew about their horrible reputation do not recommend their services and for the second bar I just cut out a triangle piece of steel to hold it up works well for now)

    5500k HID headlights

    Interior LED complete swap

    Derped all my emblems red(I'll eventually just debadge I like that better)

    30 inch Light Bar in Valance

    40 Series MagnaFlow muffler.

    I made some flagpoles as well for the rear of the truck by the tailgate.

    ProEFX Tow Mirrors (thanks too @j_strength )

    WeatherTech rear FloorMat (looking for the front mats if anyone's selling any) and WeatherTech window Deflectors (thanks to @RonRon23 )

    Will do:

    I want to remove the rear block for the lift and get a full leaf kit.

    Sliders with Kickout

    RetroFit headlights

    Get a Custom Roof Rack Made

    Clazzio Leather Seat Covers

    Hood Struts (done)

    Replace the shocks all around (not sure what I'll go with but if I see a good GB @ramonortiz55 then I'll probably end up purchasing some)

    That's it for now I'll keep updating when I see new things I want!:D

    Don't be a douche, take out the HID's until you get projectors.

    Until then take them out, it's a safety issue. My 2011 has stock halogens and they do just fine

    My family has an 18 foot Travel Trailer and I've taken it out with some friends a couple times and it's really hard to see anything either the stock mirrors so I was looking for something better the clip on tow mirrors were horrible and I kinda like the look of these and they'll actually help so I just pulled the trigger. They're not for everyone though

    I made my valence bracket and my roof bracket was from G&G lighting which I don't recommend, good product horrible service. And I made the extension for the second bar.
