Had a guy on an e-bike run into the side of my Prado in Helena last night, left dents in both RH doors. Any recommendations for paintless dent repair in the area?

do ebikers carrry insurance?
According to Montana law, e-bikes are treated the same as regular bicycles so no insurance or registration is needed.
Spellcheck strikes again!
Personally, I think they should be regulated as motorcycles since that's exactly what they are.
Insurance is optional for motorcycles in Montana.
Registration is required though, and that can go a long way toward figuring out who was involved in an incident and allowing the processes to do what they do.
What advantages does ceramic tint have? Curious minds want to know.
Cuts heat and UV rays dramatically. It’s amazing. 10/10 recommend, it’s more expensive but so worth it.
@wizmariefa Do you know how they deal with existing factory tint when you're getting new tint done?
It’s usually a small charge to remove it from the window. They just took care of it when i got my 80 tinted.
My Dad is visiting from Michigan and has been impressed with the Toyota vehicles I've owned over the years. So we went shopping for a new Tacoma at Ressler. We spent some time going over options with Cameron, and narrowed things down to the TRD Offroad package. My dad's not sure if he wants a manual or auto yet. If I were trying to buy a new Toyota at Ressler, I'd be pretty happy to buy it from Cameron.

H4 upgrade with Hella halogen fogs. Let there be light.
I've been testing out a bug screen for the past few summers and figured it was time to share. I didn't see much out there on this topic but if the info does exist, meh whatever.....The problem being solved here is to keep bugs and debris out of the radiator. Around here, especially out in the farm land in the summer time, just hammers the truck with bugs of all sizes.
Possible concerns
I was a bit worried about wind drag but more worried about possible lack of air flow to the radiator. I've tested it in temps in the high 90s on everything from highway speeds to low and slow. My coolant temps never go over 195f and typically are steady around 185. There is still plenty of air passing through the radiator.
Same could be said for MPGs. If this thing is hurting my mileage I wouldn't know the difference. My truck is heavy as s*** anyway and I have a roof rack with water tanks and other things hurting that. I average 14-15 on the highway and 12ish off road and it doesn't change with the bug screen
Product details -
Here is the cheap option on Amazon. It works great but the edges / grommets are weak. I blast it with the power washer and it cleans nicely without tearing
>>Victor bug screen
Eventually I found these guys. I also had them custom make me a car cover for another vehicle, it was amazing the level of detail they put into it. Based in India and backed with quality.
Cost $22 shipped FedEx Express
>> Covers and All
Screen measurements for ARB bumper if you want the full length-
If you want to cover the majority of the bumper go with the below dimensions.
Height - 24"
Length - 72"
I also ordered another one at only 36" length and that is the one I have been running as it looks a bit cleaner
This was the cheaper Amazon screen which actually worked well

A little winter clean and wax prep for the pair thanks to my sons help.

Looks good EthanR. How’re the northeastern trails treating you?
Thanks, been chippin' away at it each day after work. I haven't gotten to get out on any full-size trails, but went mountain biking up in NH with some family up there recently
