Why no tundra upgrade?

It was an extra 200+ dollars for it. Didn't have the money.

If you upgrade to the flowmaster be sure to add a tundra resonance silencer to silence to drone/humm (the exhaust will still sound just as aggresive), both the Borla and TRD come with it pre-installed. you can pick up a used one from a scapyard dirt cheap, just be sure it is from a V8. if you would like pics just pm me or see my thread.

the flowmaster sounds really nice. you can add a TRD exhaust tip from the dealer for $72.

Updated pics of the runner!

I decided to paint the front emblem OSU orange! I actually like it. Its different than other runners. Represent!



The back emblems are plasti dipped and I added a new decal.



I plasti dipped the piece of gold chrome on the antenna

X2 the audio stickers. Had two p2 15 stolen out of Mine about 8 months ago. I cried had over a $1000 in the system. And I walk out to my car one day and it's all gone and couldn't do a thing about it. Now I have some kicker cvr there loud as sh*****t!

Also a easy way to fix that damage on the front bumprr is sand the whole things down and paint it black. Mine had paint chips where the previous owner let bugs dry and never washed it. I Saunded mine down and put a few cans of flat black on it. You may like the look or may not I do haha but here's a few pics

 

[awdjunkies]

I'm kinda diggin' that look ^

 

[spenedwrds]

I love it. At first it almost looks like a after market bumper. I'm gonna hit it with another coat here soon just to touch it up. But I'm liking it alot

 

[DirtDawg]

Check the link bud, it might be a little hard to psint the bumper at this point!
