After having the truck for a month, I LOVE it. Its so much fun. The truck was tinted before I got it, and sure enough I got a ticket already for it. CA tint laws suck, so when I get the ticket taken care of, im definatly getting it put back on. I got the Aero Turbine 2525 installed, just welded it on and dumped as you can see. The sound is amazing (ill try and get a clip tomorrow), somewhat loud but hey, with the music cranked you dont notice it. I noticed a little bit more power and got better MPG, dont know exact numbers yet though. Next I got the floormats, and these are awesome. They protect the floor so much and its a really well made quality product, easy to clean too. I ordered the Red Hellwig sway direct from them, and the install for this wasnt as easy for me as people on here said it is. It took me about 3 hours. The directions that came with it are so bad, so I came on here and searched and found some detailed instructions with some good pictures. The sway is amazing and just as good as everyone says it is, improves handling so much!

Nick that is a nice looking ride. Man I waited 5 years before I did anything to my truck. I am on a major roll and can't wait for the exhaust.
I just ordered a set of clear corners from ebay not sure if they will work out but for 30 bucks its not a bad deal.
I also painted the rear taillights to get rid of the yellow turn signals. This mod came out nicer than I thought. I really like the look and since it cost around 5 bucks and some time for this, you cant go wrong.
what should be my next mod? i bought the locking gas cap today, and i think im getting a black stubbie antenna next.
Try this antenna. I got the 21" polished for my AC and it sits a little below the roof line of the truck. The reception is the same as stock. I'd go with the 21" cause any shorter looks funny on a big truck IMO.

the AMI ones were exactly the ones i was looking at, my local toyota dealer has them. im leaning toward a black 15 inch.

Debadge question - is this something you have done at a body shop? I am working on ordering/buying a tundra and I'm going to request no dealer badges, but how do you get rid of the toyota badges without having holes or odd spots in the paint?

Do a search on the subject there are tons of info on the subject. You will need fishing line, blow dryer, and bug and tar remover, though.
