You're tall now, write it down somewhere so you know before you enter a parking garage. I think I fit like 60-70% of the places around here.

Very unique build. A Blizzard Pearl T4R that looks like a TRD PRO with a Lexus looking interior. Love it!

Rides the same. But I didn’t notice a bit more wind/road noise on the freeways. I need to drive it more to really get a feel if things. But for now feels same.

If you don't mind my asking, where did you find your hood? eBay sells a "Sherman" hood for $215 shipped, but I haven't found much helpful information on their quality.
Since they come unpainted and I have some experience wrapping, I thought about wrapping the hood in 3M gloss white. I ordered some samples from several vinyl companies and found that 3M's is virtually indistinguishable to my eyes from Toyota's SW. That would price the entire mod at just under $400. Not sure if I'd paint it first to avoid the risk of rust down the road though.

I ordered it from my local Toyota parts counter (online) and took it to a shop to get painted. It was cheaper to buy it locally and pay taxes, rather then having it shipped.

The mod was installing it. Prior, I never had a driver side A pillar handle.
I just realized I didn’t post pictures. I’ll do that soon :-)
