    Looks awesome! I noticed that you have the chrome bumper caps like @MrTravelDog in the post above yours (also a 23 OR). Didn’t realize that they still come with the chrome bumper caps.

    But configurations aside, your truck is cleaner than I’ll probably ever be able to get mine. :D

    If you don't get the tech package (and I was not able to) you still get chrome bumper caps. I Plasti-dip'd mine immediately. Chrome/no chrome is a personal preference, but IMO Lunar Rock just cries out for black trim.

    I didn’t get the tech package but mine were color coded. Too many variables in the configurations.

    Yes, what others above said, mine didn't have the tech package so I guess it came with chrome bumper caps? I'm not a chrome fan, but they are so much more durable and scuff resistant than the painted ones. I know because I used to have a Sport.

    Agreed! Easy mod and makes a huge difference in appearance. When I removed mine from my old 17 AC SR5 I didn’t notice any difference in gas mileage.

    That sucks! Maybe fish around with a telescopic magnet. Hopefully you find it. :thumbsup:

    I used a regular magnet and looked around and couldn’t find anything. Rocked the truck and didn’t hear anything. Went down my rough dirt road and hit the brakes a hard a few times. Rocked again and looked around and nothing. I wonder if theres anything concerning that it could have fallen into

    If it fell between the cab and bed I don’t think there’s too much to be concerned about. If it didn’t fall out on the rough dirt road it may taken a good bounce and lodged in between the fuel tank and fuel tank skid plate.

    Probably the best course of action. If it were the engine compartment, definitely high anxiety :mad: You should be good to go :thumbsup:

    Appreciate it! I’m not worried, it has to fall out eventually if it hasn’t yet. The gap between the cab and bed is exposed to everything. I see no difference if I were off road and a small rock flew in there, parked under a tree and a nut or something fell in there, etc etc

    Thinking about doing the same, but I kinda like protection it gives from salt and dirt spray from drivers in front of me.
