For a 2021 TRD Pro I paid MSRP plus $1600 for a dealership-forced "package," and $1000 in dealership fees. The rest was TTL. The dealership package included a "free" lifetime unlimited miles power train warranty, tinted windows which look quite good, and Nitrogen service. The hardest part was...

The bare metal is what worries me the most because that will happen whether or not the peeling eventually manifests. I'm going MGM after originally thinking I was going white.

Where it chips, does it expose bare metal? Or is it just the primer that's exposed? I'd think 2020 is too young still for the peeling. Toyota claims the peeling problem with Super White and Blizzard Pearl is caused by UV penetration to the primer/metal layer. If true, then it seems to me...

Must these be installed under the hood? I'd think that high temperatures could shorten the life of these compressors. How about under a seat? Passenger? Passenger rear?

Thanks. Those pics look nice.

Those look super nice on your 4R. Congratulations.

Also, I've communicated with a painter and he suggests adding a clear coat to a new car, two or three layers of Glasurit 923-550, or 923-630. Does anyone have a feeling about this approach? One problem I see is that it will fail eventually. At that point, it just looks like failing paint...

I've gone back and forth between Super White and Magnetic Gray, which is my current choice. Part of that choice is because I live in a high UV area. If anyone has good info suggesting that this peeling problem has been solved for at least 2021, please reply here. Thanks

How long is the shipping time?

So really, this is not the fault of this overlay?

Any chance of this reopening? I'm interested.

Any chance of this reopening?

Interested nonetheless.

Thanks Magnetic4R for this thread. Your build and transformation is what inspired me to select Magnetic Gray.
