Builds Medusa | 16+ 200 series build

[rwbmedusa]

Looks amazing and super clean. It's pretty much how I'd like mine to be kitted out.

What kind and size are those wheels and tires?

I post more on ig.

Volk Racing TE37 Ultra Large PCD 20 x 9.5 0 with Toyo Tires ATII 295/60/20

Looks great. Did you or will you need to raise/ adjust your exhaust to conceal it with the new CBI bumper? Will the bike rack fit with the spare tire in place?

No exhaust adjustment needed as far as I know, you can confirm it with CBI. Yes, bike rack fits spare tire, its not an issue

super sexy. I follow you on IG and have been following the build.

thank you! really appreciate it

Looks great. I have a white 2016 and may be putting a front bumper/bull bar on this winter. The ARB Summit and the TJM13 are the two I am looking at. I believe the ARB Summit is an update with the 16+ models in mind. So how well does it work with the forward facing camera? In fact, how do your lights work with that camera?

And as for those lights, how well do they complement the stock 2016+ lights with their sharp cutoff?

I’m not necessarily looking at a winch for now due to its weight but it looks like you have the one with the remote - so no exposed controller.

I just recently completed the build just in time for SEMA so I haven't had the chance to try front camera out. All my front bumper lights have been replaced, to me the stock headlights look just as good!

Awesome build and the CBI rear bumper is great. The CBI rear I had on the Tacoma was extremely stout, and this one looks solid too. I’d like to see where you mounted your SwitchPros when you get a chance.

Thanks! Yeah love the CBI stuff. Interior switch panel or the main box?

Ideally where you mounted the switches inside. I’ve had the Spod touchscreen before and was thinking about that or the SwitchPros when the time comes.

Who does your ceramic coat work? Would appreciate a reference as I have a few vehicles I want some paint correction + coating to get ready for JC next year

Thanks

A bicycle and a shovel is part of the build?

Looks neat.

Would you mind taking a detailed picture of the Alu Cab front mount on your Frontrunner? I think I installed mine incorrectly lol. Many thanks!

What was the shipping cost of the RhinoHide paintwork protection panels from AU?

Any information on a distributor of RhinoHide products in the USA?

Did you have to trim the front & rear door panels to fit above the 'chrome' lower door trim?


Rhinohide | 4x4 Paintwork Protection | Available Now | Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series - Facelift

Retails for $1000 + shipping. My set was personally carried by Rhinohide for SEMA.

No USA distributor as we speak but I told them I am willing to help out and bring a few sets in temporarily.

Yes, the front & rear door panels needs to be trimmed due to the chrome molding, which in Aus is only available on the sahara model

I have posted a few videos on my ig stories

In trimming the front & rear door panels, did you remove and/or relocate the magnets that secure the lower portion of each door panel?

If yes, perhaps you could suggest to the RhinoHide representatives at SEMA that they locate another set of magnets (above the location of the chrome molding) on the 200 series LandCruiser door panels to secure the door panels when trimmed for use on the Sahara model in AU and the USA model with the chrome door molding.

Could you please post a link to your ig stories regarding your LandCruiser build, in particular your ig video regarding the RhinoHide product.

Enjoy SEMA and thanks for showing the use of the RhinoHide paint protection product on your build.

Here's hoping that RhinoHide is able to establish a USA distributor!

The instructions are not very detailed. It looks like one of the bolts goes through the slat? If so, does it go through the center of the slat where the bolt is, or is it go to the left or the right of the bolt? A couple detailed pictures would be great!
