So my mods are coming together finally and I figured it's high time I start a build thread. I have things I haven't even taken photographed yet and more coming soon!

I will try to list things in chronological order although the pics may not reflect that because I didn't always snap pics right after each mod. I only started taking photo's after my HD heads and tails came in.

This is actually the only photo of my baby stock. She didn't stay that way for long!


I started out with mods I could justify as functional or useful and it spiraled out of control from there..

First thing I added was Wet Okole seat covers. I ordered them the day after I factory ordered my truck and they came 2 days after my truck arrived! Pretty crazy if you think about it. Not the best light.



Next I got Line-X, Krown rust protection.

Here's the only pics I've taken of the Roll-X in action.

Then I added AVS seemless ventvisors and running boards. Here's a couple random pics.



Next I was 30% window tint. Here's the first pics I took afterwards.



A couple more random pics, from two different camping trips.

Next was the HD heads and tails. All these mods happened in a very short period of time that's why all the photos have them in there already. That 6 weeks waiting for the factory order truck to come in left me lots of time to research the mods I wanted to do lol.

Installed keyless entry pad. I tucked it out of sight between the cab and the box.


Got an OEM style back up cam from the camera source.



Did some experimentation with Plasti dip. I do not like the stuff I peeled it off after 3 weeks.

Here's with just the c-clamps done.


And the surround in plasti dip smoke. I also did the back bumper


This one was after I peeled the black off the c-clamps.

Very nice! What all do you have planned for it?

I got a truck tent for my next camping trip haha. I still had the plasti dip on.


I got a inflatable mattress that extends past the tailgate in the down position. I have the 6.5 bed and the mattress is 7ft which is nice because I'm 6'6"


I PTMed my mirror caps.



I wasn't happy with the shine so I ended up re-doing them a couple weeks later. I went a little heavier on the clear second time around but did not take pics.

Next I vinyl wrapped some interior pieces sterling grey. I orginally bought the vinyl to wrap my bumpers but it was the wrong time of vinyl for that kind of application. Also my wheelskins steering wheel cover in on in this shot.

Undercoated the wheel wells.




The new grill surround, unpainted.




Got the new PTM grill on.

Here's what our trucks look like with the bumpers removed.. in case anyone was wondering haha.


That was from my first attempt at vinyl wrapping my bumpers unsuccessfully with the wrong type of vinyl.

The second time with proper vehicle wrapping vinyl went much better. I couldn't find a good color match vinyl so I decided to go two tone. This time I left the bumpers on to wrap them.

Here are some pics before the OEM fender flares went on. Not the best light and I hadn't washed her yet due to the vinyl still being fresh.




That is Oracles matte black vinyl. As you can see compared to the flares they're not very matte but more of a satin black.

I had my friend who's a painter for Lexus paint them satin black for me.

Here's a pic with the flares on, after a nice wax!


And lastly, this one brings us up to date with the most recent pic I have.

BlueCornChips

Since my last photo I've added new black 18" wheels with slightly bigger than the stock tires(for the 18" 2wd). I didn't want to go too big because I'm not willing to sacrifice that much performance for appearance.

I also got sterling grey/black ford ovals with new pics coming soon.
