i despise body work, my primer is thick because i guess it was old stock and did not thin it, and it was a pain to smooth out, i spent 3 hours today.... but is ready for sealer and base and clear, hope i dont mess up...

went ahead and finish a couple of things that needed to be done..

trying to go away from gray painted trim so i got new parts and they needed a shine



and installed looked even better



the missing parts will get treated very soon..

also after one and a half freaking year, yes, ive said it, i finally buttoned up the speedometer, was too lazy to calibrate, but no its done...



and even better on the car...



then i installed all the missing parts, and my dashboard is complete...



oh and after i did the sparks today, took it for a spin...

I am extremely pleased, there is no comparison. The TRD shifter rocks.

Smooth, quick and TRD, what else can you desire...

Yeah, the 7th gen is too clunky in my experience. I'd run OEM before running that. TRD FTW.

i love my TRD shifter, im glad you put it in. the 7th gen is nice if you dont want to spend the money for the TRD one right away although it is clunky.
