I know its not a canoe, but its as much of a sail.... I'm running Thule aero bars (worth the extra money over square or round bars) with the narrowest Yakima box I could get and Thule SUP racks. The reason for the SUP racks is so I could mount them outboard of the feet. The box is also...

Well aware of the tow hooks Titan, my concern is that they are not intended for recovery but are meant for tieing the vehicle down in transit. The only reason I bring it up is because VO are somewhat particular about ensuring you have proper recovery equipment. VO Outings Trail Difficulty and...

Vermont overland's events always look awesome, but what is a 4runner owner to do for a front recovery point if they don't want to go to an aftermarket bumper? My only thoughts are a front hitch or a winch....

The matte clear has me considering a dip now... That and doing the front moustache matte black a la trail edition (Have a CDN SR5 so same bumper as TE but all body coloured). I voted Battleship Grey, but only because Tan wasn't an option! There was a matte tan LR3 I saw in overland journal...

Thanks TThompson, FYI my material came to $165 with a role of knifeless tape. I got enough vinyl to do front and rear bumpers and mirrors. I ordered it through autovinylsolutions.com I'll try to take picks of the process and post on monday.

I have a question for Jawainmann or anyone else with vinyl experience. I actually have the vinyl at home for this and am hoping to get it on this weekend. I have a canadian SR5 so we have the TE bumper already just not in black. The question is this, does the US Limited bumper have a seam...
