    oh yeah there was rubbing. too wet to tape it though, so I'm still not positive where it's happening. But this pic I was able to stop when I heard it...

    They're 17". Taking it off road for the second time tomorrow and I'll do the painter's tape test. Can't wait.

    I'm rubbing. I can't tell where exactly, but hope it's just the infamous bolt. Anybody else running trd pros with 265/70 ridge grapplers? It clears everything on normal turns, it happens when I am on a slope or braking hard and I haven't had it happen in a spot where I can get out and look. I...

    Phase one is almost complete. Vinyl is done, I still suck at applying it though, surrounding grill piece needs to be redone, but I can live with it for a little while. Installed the sport lights. Not the cheapest option, but looks the best for what I wanted. And the Nitto tires finally came...

    I used the shadow black hyper dip only on the window trim. the door handles, and other chrome is vinyl, I used 3m 2080 s12 satin black and it's pretty damn close in color and shine to the hyper dip. the damn driver's door is bubbled up, I don't know how I messed that one up, I saved it for last...

Yea, @MrTorgue I believe your posts about the Nitto Ridge Grapplers are one of the reasons I'm waiting on them! they've been on backorder 2 weeks so far at my discount...

    @SkiBikePlay oh man that lift is about perfect for what I want too! not sure how to get the sport red look exactly. I'd like oem sport lights, but the price makes it hard to justify. Not sure if there's a market for the clear lights either to recoup some of that cost. I might try vinyl, but...

    I have only used the hyper dip so not sure about the differences, supposed to be very similar, but this black (which is supposed to be darker than black Plasti Dip) matched my 3m vinyl pretty closely. So much easier than vinyl also. I am going to wrap the grille in vinyl, but if it gives me fits...

    Hey folks, new owner here, i bought this 2017 GX Luxury. I'd like to thank this community for helping me find the right GX. Previously owned a 2013 VW GTI Autobahn, and i've had a 2020 Rav4 for a year (wife's ride now). Snagged the GX 3 weeks ago. Again, I can't thank this forum enough for...
