New, Blue, TRD ORP

They're great! The biggest different came from doing the dash speakers.

I have a white TRD ORP, and love it. But..every time I see a clean and shiny nautical blue I question my decision. Best non Pro color for sure, IMO. Good call on the rust protection. I was working under mine this weekend and was shocked how must rust was rearing it’s head for only a year old, and Covid lack of mileage with no skiing.

After owning a 2008 FJ Cruiser, a 2015 4Runner Trail, I learned that there are certain rust areas to watch for.
One recommendation: Next time you take your skid plates off, make sure to put anti-seize on the bolts.
Mt last 2 Toyota's had seized skid plate bolts. If fact, I will be adding anti-seize to my 2020 skid plate bolts.
Not sure why but Toyota still does not take corrosion seriously.
You would think that after having to replace entire frames on the other models, they would make more of an effort.
Like I always say, rust is the only thing that can kill Toyota.
 
Hi all... I too love my nautical blue...
Anyone ceramic coat theirs? Thoughts? Worth it?
I park outside 99% of the time so it will get beat up by the sun on a daily basis and I live up in Ontario... so snow/salt in the winter as well.
Someone told me that ceramic coat will get wore out quickly under these conditions.
Thanks.

That's a great tip!! I should take that off and coat that whole area...

I'm a little afraid of the dealer techs taking that skid plate off to do the oil change...:suspicious:
