[Backroader]

And a special THANK YOU! to Fishnwiz for the blackout emblems.View attachment 28595

Very NICE!! I'm sure Fishnwiz will be happy they were put to good use and look so good on your truck. That was nice of him.

 

[B-Man]

Lookin' good, Scott!

Dirtboy is my nickname on other sites and my email so I thought I'd use it here.

Started out as a plain Jane 16 SR5

My first mod was adding g a set of step rails from Tyger.

Then I added the awesome Toyoda and Star Wars decals.

I took my Taco in for its first rotate and balance.

That's when the tire tech told me one of my tires couldn't be balanced because the wheel was out of round. Enter the next mod - new wheels!View attachment 28442

Then I chose to add a little visual change by adding rally stripes.

So this is where we are as of 01/01/2020.

So I got some black SR5 overlays from fishnwiz, but the rest of my emblemage was still chrome.

Today I broke out the plastidip and turned them all black.

Looks good, Scott!

Looks awesome!

Hard for me to believe a steel wheel is out of around anyway, nice job

 

[Scubaguy]

Keep up the change.

I watched it on the spin balancer. It looked like an egg rolling around.

 

[B.C.]

Mmmm eggs...

 

[Scott Wyman]

Added a little more carbon fiber inside yesterday. Not quite perfect, but good enough for me.

 

[B.C.]

Very cool Scott!!!

 

[Scott Wyman]

Very cool Scott!!!

Thanks! I have one more panel to cover and I'll call the carbon fiber project done.

That's a very impressive choice of wheels. It really brings out a great new look to your truck. I want to know which specific Tyger truck steps are those. I'm planning to add power running boards to my rig but haven't yet decided what will I get so I'm considering getting one that looks similar to yours. I might be able to do that after I'm done with the tire mounting for the new set of all-weather tires scheduled this weekend

Thanks for the props Collin. Here is the info for my steps. Got them on Amazon at a real good price. They are $169 now, I paid $159 two years ago.
