Aren’t those bilstein shocks? I thought the 2019 pros had the fox setup.

Yes they are. These are from 2018 TRD pro when they were using Bilstein. First page typo fixed :-)

I saw this thread and saw that Cornfed was a good solution. It would feel like a stock TRD pro but with a little lift. I figure I’d give this option a try before deciding on which lift to go with.

I get it and it makes sense however I was under the impression that adding a spacer lift would limit suspension travel, thus kind of defeating the purpose of putting on the trd pro suspension.

The guys on that thread with pros and did the Cornfed are happy with it. I guess I’ll find out soon. I hope to have my suspension in perhaps thanksgiving weekend. I’ll eventually get a real lift (Kings, toytech , icons) but I just need to collect a few more dead presidents :-)

Just picked these up from the paint shop tonight. The valances use to be silver. The scoop was unfinished. I was going to use the finished scoop which is already black but I want the valances to match. I’m sure these will chip in a few weeks
But for now .. they look so purty :-)

Daytonaviolet's build thread
Spent a few hours Saturday afternoon and few hours today. I was able to complete the following
1. Fender liners
2. Rocker panels
3. Hood scope insert
4. Front bumper
5. Pro grille
Unfortunately while taking off the front fender flares (required when removing fender liners) I broke several clips on the fender flare. I can’t believe how weak these were. I ended up using epoxy to repair the clips. I learned that the clips used to hold in the fender liners are not reusable.
Before
After
Fixed fender flares

Here's my bumper list. Let me know if you have any questions. Some of the items I put qyt5 as I was unsure how many clips I needed. But most of the clips I re-used. Let's just say, I have some extra clips.

Could we get some side shots to see how the bumper hangs as compared to the rear? Is the rear bumper noticeably lower now? Also, did you retain the rear parking sensors?

I actually got a few items painted. Front/rear bumpers, front/rear valances, hood and hood scoop for $1500. Keep in mind these are Bay Area prices.

I’ll take some today. As for the rear TRD bumper, I may install those tonight. If not for sure this weekend. But yes, the rear will hang down like 2”. I plan to re-install both front and rear parking sensors. For the rears, the outer ones will be in the standard location. The two inner ones will be on the valance. Well that’s my plan.
