    Got caught in an unexpected shower and admired the beading from my recent waxing.

    Did a quick and dirty mini detail, why is the cup holder area always so filthy!?


    Not really to be seen but cleaned up my rear cam cables a bit, still need to pull the dash and hard wire it.

    Yesterday I de-burred & bent over the fender tabs for both front wells; and made up a front passenger well liner.

    I discovered that I accidentally cut into the floor pan on both sides behind the wheel wells. :(

    So today I sealed the cuts up with silicone & then taped them over with foil tape. I also sealed up old liner holes with the tape. Prime’d, undercoated, & painted everything.

    C2D6E882-4510-4045-9BF7-7475940E203A.jpg AD6CD111-2783-49CD-AA51-84010BA8AFE1.jpg 8BA510B9-5278-4493-BA45-2281476709F7.jpg

    The undercoating was still too soft to continue with the liner project. So I switched gears & relocated the rear wheel well/bed-side brackets. I used a conduit bender to modify the forward brackets; and I cut an inch off of the rear brackets.

    Great experience working with @discountire to replace the rims and tires on my Tacoma. Best price, very friendly and the truck was done in under an hour.
