i like that decal, what size did you get and what color? is that the distressed look flag?

It's the 18x33 and regular flat black flag. Look up "5th gen 4runner American flag" and there's a whole thread on it. I got my buddy who installs vinyl wrapping to do mine. I would have totally messed it up if I tried it.

Added the trail badge to Marv (my 5th gen name, chosen by my son lol)

I did not like the fact that this badge was a single piece, so I decide to cut the joint with a knife and paint those.

1. Started by cutting the letter joint individually and painted them to hide the white plastic showing up after the cutting. I did 2 thin layer of primer, 3 thin layer of black and 2 thin layer of clear coat to seal everything.

2. Then I applied double side tape to all letter, cutting the excess with a surgical blade.

3. Then I placed a ruler to set the letter correctly, and applied a masking tape so the letter would stay in the correct position while I would stick those to the truck.

4. Then with the tape on, I carefully applied the letter to the truck for a perfect fit.

Ran a couple errands including grabbing a load of lumber. Lumber and labor produced some heavy duty work benches, one for the garage, one as a reloading bench in the gun room.

Half Flaps..I had my front mud flaps off for the toytec kit and 285's install, when I reinstalled them I found that there was an ever so slight contact with the lower bubble when hitting a bump and turning. I tried the heat gun method to reshape them but was not pleased with the results. Before ditching them I thought I'd try one more thing, I cut them in half vertically and now have plenty of clearance and some rock protection.

I like this. I'm going to do it! Thanks.

You need LT to go over a rutted out path? Did you hit this path doing 60mph? :bounce:

It was a joke, relax, it was more towards poking fun at the travel of a toytec boss kit. Since we are joking in a clearly stated 'joke's thread, I bet I got through that rutted out dirt path quicker than it took to create that mr. wallet self-install signature.

I quite like my Boss kit, but that was still funny and I got the point of your pic.
