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

I’ll be installing my winch tonight along with a beer funnel for my 4R.

I went with spidertrax 1.25

Im on 295/70/17's RG's too on my pro wheels. i went with the JBA HD UCA's. I was too close for comfort at full lock so went with the spacers.

My IG is [MENTION=175603]vtecturtle[/MENTION] if you wanna see pics of the fitment with spacers
 
Plasti dipped my side and rear emblems. Lesson #1: Don't dip in cold weather. But I'm still pretty happy with it for being my first time. Roof rails are off because they're getting dipped this weekend also. Also took my running boards off.

Scooped up a Yakima Fatcat Evo 6 on the cheap, some cleaner and ArmorAll and she's good as new.

Got my HIDs installed this evening. Bought a DDM 4500k ultra kit. Happy with it so far. Lights seem aimed well and no one is flashing me.

Before anyone comments the knife and flash light are already removed. My son clipped them up there while I was getting my phone to snap a pic.
He is now well educated in the laws of physics and what happens when a vehicle impact occurs and those objects become projectiles in the cabin.

Installed an Orangebox Fab driver side PSD. All the condor pouches seem pretty secure, although I'm still on the fence about the SOG Entrenching Tool. I had it around the garage and threw it on there just to see if it would work. It's secured by fasteners on the back side ... not just with that red bungee cord that's showing. Again, still considering removing it as I don't want it to also become a projectile if an accident happens.

My ARB air hose is secured to the rear of the panel as it was taking up a lot of space on the front side.

Always open to thoughts and ideas on mounting options or if any other safety issues are observed.

Cold piant application

Plasti dipped my side and rear emblems. Lesson #1: Don't dip in cold weather. But I'm still pretty happy with it for being my first time. Roof rails are off because they're getting dipped this weekend also. Also took my running boards off.

Cold? It's never cold in So Cal...

Actually I'm having trouble painting some fabricated body mount parts in this weather. Finally started to apply the final coat outside and it started to rain. Big drops but only a few for a few minutes. Now it's raining here.

You're ready for rock sliders now that you don't have those running boards.
