Weekend of mods
Not too much done. Removed the running boards and debadged the rig.
Also added husky liners and changed the dome lights to Piaa Hyper White 10w instead of the stock yellow 8w. I will have pics of those later.

Looks nice with the debadged exterior... Also looks like you have better weather there than here in New England!

Looks great, really clean debadged.
I've been seeing a lot of people getting their rigs from Ranch Santa Margarita, how was your experience?

My experience was pain free. Do NOT buy from Toy of LB. Bunch of lying ***holes.
Toy of RSM was great. Guy was great and haggling took 2 min. Got my rig in under 2 hrs. Only thing was they tried to sell me Lojack, Simoniz, Alarm etc. I said no to all.
I would buy from them again and I would not hesitate to recommend.

I think it was around 75F. with sea breeze. It was perfect weather.
The debadging only took 20 min with hairdryer and floss.
Running boards took about 15. I had some stubborn bolts.

Thanks.
Although I thought the emblems were cool, I think it looks better without. I esp. liked the "4WD" emblem. Not too many 4WD's in So. Cal. I got the dome lights from a import tuner store. $20 for 2 lights. If you get it, make sure you get the hyper white or blue 10w. Stock is 8w. Its a light blue light, but brighter. Its a nice soft color. The stock yellows were a little harsh. you can find them online or at a import tuner store. I went to a Toy dealer and they had them there also.

I would say very little. The mudguards take care of most of that. Plus I thought the running boards were a little narrow. And if it rains or you go through a small puddle and get out, your pants get dirty from them. If you have a signifigant other they might say something if you take them off. Luckily, mine did not. She will when I lift it though. I guess she will convince me to get sliders........
