What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Drove 6.5hrs from Charleston to Roanoke with our 9wk old baby and she never cried until the very end! Baby girl loves the beast! Headed to the GWNF tomorrow for her first hike hopefully...
 
I had an exercise in showing extreme restraint today when my wife backed out of the garage without looking and hit the front of our son"s CTS. Naturally I looked at the 4Runner first - no damage then at the CTS. Tore a small line in the bumper cover. I have my son shopping on line for a replacement. Guess I better plan on paying for it and helping him install it.

:doh:

Twice washed and microfiber towel dried in the last two weeks (last wash Sunday), garaged and not driven, prior to taking my super white 2014 Trail Premium to the "wrap shop" today, odometer reading 196 miles. Want to make sure the 3M plastic film is laid down on a crazy clean pristine surface. Anxious to see the new matte black finish in a few days.

Installing Saturday. I did the Bilsteins I have with a friend when I first got the truck, so this is just like a redo of the install. Yeah I'm off Shallowford.

Last week: Schrockworks rocker trim.

Also found this yesterday. Two years old and 28k miles on these Icon VS 2.0, both are leaking this is the worst of the two. I would think for the $$ that these would last much much longer than they have.

Just my opinion but that just looks like light seepage. I'm no fan boy for icon but I think you're probably fine since it's a very tiny amount that's spread in the dust. There has to be a tiny amount to keep that seal oiled so it doesn't burn up. Never hurts to have a pro take a quick peak at it though.
 
added some yellow lenses to my light bars

It's dripping off of the bottom shock mount leaving spots in the driveway, it's not just seepage. :nono:

I emailed MetalTech about them we'll see how that goes.
