Did great wouldn't have traded if I didn't, I paid $32200 with price protection and had a $35400 window sticker. They gave me $33100 trade and I got to keep almost all of my upgrades except lift/wheels/tires. Didn't mind as my tires were at 20% left.

Knocked out the Bumper and Signature lights last night, also did Cerakote trim coat on the grill while I had it off.

How long did it take to swap the bumper?

15 minutes tops, very easy.

Good to know. I have the capable bumper and gave it some "character" now I gotta replace it. I picked one up off marketplace but havent time to do it. Its just the base metal part not complete so it might take a bit longer. Thanks!

Mounted the Baja Designs XL80's and put the new wheels/tires on to check for lift. I think I'm going to do notch #3 on the Bilstein 5100s for 2in front 1.7in rear. Also went to mount te curt tow hitch form my '23 but there's something mounted there so I'll need to remove the bumper, the '23 didn't have that???

We've had them on our '23 for over a year and really like them especially with the yellow covers! I ordered a set of Squadron Pros for my wife's 4Runner and they aren't even half what these XL80's are.

Finished everything up for now, Curt tow hitch, AIG mini mudflaps, 2in lift & alignment.

Found my OBDLinkEX cable so set the correct tire size in Forescan now the speedo is perfect!

Installed some white rally stripes today, got the idea from @Hkak45.
