    I have all of this stuff listed in my signature. I figured I would just create my own thread with mods pictured. May take a couple of days to load all the pix. It is a 2016 TRD Sport Access Cab 2 wheel drive with the tow package and door sill protectors. Discount was hundreds more than my local dealers. I bought it Jan 2, 2016 for $30,400 from Bayside Toyota in Prince Frederick MD. Great people to deal with. Drove 4 hours to get it. Put $18k down on it.
    First photos. Still had my 2008 Prerunner V6 that I would eventually sell. Had sold my 2014 F150 a few weeks earlier.

    Why did you have to bend something for the hood struts? I also have a 2016 access cab, didn't have to bend anything.

    The k&n housing interfered with the hood strut on the passenger side
