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

[Mudhorn]

Put the flashers back on the rig.

Which brand are you using? Can you control the flash pattern?

 

[Bpmoses]

Debadged, shaved, color matched gate trim, and painted emblem black. I think i like it.

They are super cheap flashers from AutoZone. They actually work really well for their price. Yes, you can control the pattern but they are pretty limited with options. The controller has to be in the cigarette lighter to be used which is a bit annoying but not too bad.

I also usually put on flashers on the back but just dont need those right now. Downside to having both front and back is you have to have two controllers.

Eventually I'll put something better in. I use these mostly during the winter to help pull people out of ditches and so having the flashers helps with visibility on the side of the road.

Learn something new every day. They look like the OEM FJ sliders. Maybe they are and they fit the 4R also? Definitely not as strong as the aftermarket but they beat no sliders at all.

I doubt it. Any weight on these frame mounts and they'll twist like a pretzel.

I agree, they're cheap for a reason. For mild wheeling though they beat not having anything at all. These were by no means designed for sliding over rocks like an RCI slider or something like that. They also offer next to zero side protection which is not ideal.

Looks awesome Don. I need to pay someone to buff out some scratches from when my dumbass dog jumped out the window to chase me into my mailroom at my apartment.

Thanks dude!! Yeah just started the correction cream last night from Griot’s. Loving this stuff. After that the ceramic spray is going on.

 

[RusPro17]

A pic of the front after the correction cream. This stuff is awesome. Plus I got another Griot’s buffer. It’s holds the 2 and 3 inch pad.

Just got home from work. Time to spend a couple more hours with the buffer on my AG pro. Pick up where I left off last night.

Gave the front bumper a little chop. Looks much better like this in my opinion.

Looks soooooo GOOD!!! Gonna do this when I get back from the road trip we are taking!

Where did you get the measurements on where to cut?

Agreed, that's a great line and something i'd be happy with. Curious to see those measurements.

CollinJ, did you get some extra negative camber or bumper chop makes it look like that?
