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

Is there any reason why you can't just swap the upper grill with an older version that has no chrome strips at all?

I'm pretty sure the only reason they added those was to distract the eye from that huge TSS radar block in the lower grill.

Thanks my next step to see if a 19 MY will fit. Was hoping to do it with just a few pieces. I don’t really want a pro grill and I didn’t really want to plasti-dip them. Want more permanent solution.
 
Had some early season fun!! :canada:

Added AVS Vent visors / Rain guards. Really like the look and functionality of these.

Added this sweet mod to the back seat. My wife is expecting in a couple of months and I'm just getting a test run in with installing this thing so I'm not a total newb when the baby is here. Gives me a few months to cope with the fact that my car will never be clean again lol.

Assembled a new Victory full length rack to replace my Rhino Pioneer. Had to make three notches in in side to fit an awning and my RTT at the same time.

The Rhino while a great product was not going to work for my RTT

Finished a fairing extension to be powder coated

Hopefully install soon

I had a housing printed to hold S2 work lights on the side rails, painted those today.

Finished a cargo platform design using 18/20 parts with a laser cut platform and rails for a frig/cooler slider. Ordered parts. It has movable tie downs, can be expanded, etc. it is going to be pretty cool. I will post whenever parts show up.

Then....ordered the new Eibach load leveling rear springs. 250#. Will be mated to my 5160s

You’re gonna find French fries and ketchup packets in every nook and cranny of that back seat.

Congratulation!
 
Decided to plastidip all of the chrome trim. Going to touch up the front end a little. What do you guys think?

Welp this is how my day went got hit by a dump truck that ran a red light

now the waiting game with insurance ��

I feel for you man but gotta look at the positives and your family is well. Always could be a lot worse, hope you get it back all fixed soon. Mine should be ready for pick up from the body shop this Friday, 24 days total without my rig and felt every day of it.

That being said, Toyota is running a promotion of buy 3 tires and get the 4th for $1. I've had my eye on the General ATX Grabbers for a while now and lucky me they're available for the promotion. Swung by my local service department today and ordered a set. As soon as I pick up my t4r I'm heading to the dealer and get rid of the stock Dunlops. Will be posting pictures when I get a chance.
 
Men how lucky you are, here in Alberta they closed all the trails...for off road vehicle.

Considering the very few trails here in Ontario, I was a little surprised too that there were no enforcement. The general rule here is 'don't be out if you don't have to', reason if unfortunately something were to happen to you, emergency services aren't spent on your 'unnecessary' travel.

The photos in my post were two most intimidating points of the day. Nothing dramatic. We took it easy knowing this was one of the easier 'open' trails. Most don't open until May 1.

I envy the trails in your neck of the woods, or any other along that mountain range down through the States.
 
Installed LEDs in the fogs yesterday and finished up with the Headlights this morning. Thanks to the forum for assistance! Went with NINEO Leds for top and bottom. It was nice to have all the wires be able to cram in the dust cap.

Congratulations! A lot more than the cleanliness of your Runner is gonna change. If you do it right and have a bit of luck you will raise great kids like I have. Then if you're really lucky they will give you the best thing of all: GRANDKIDS! That's a long way down the road though. Enjoy the baby!
