Debadged it, and removed the sport sticker off the bed side always hated it just never got around to messing with it. Passenger fender liner was also removed and dropped off at the body shop to be resprayed had a oh sh*t moment.

Don’t the new limited models have metal pedals, are those available for purchase somewhere?

They advertise them as part of the 10th anniversary longhorn (2021) and 10th anniversary limited (2022) packages, but as far as I know none of the longhorns actually came with them. We will see if the limiteds do or not but I wouldn't count on it.

Haha, I got rid of the sport badges also- it took me 38 minutes of ownership (the length of the drive home) to want to get rid of them.

Nice. What # tint did you use to match the rear?

They told me 20% was the closest to the rear. Was going to tint everything to get better heat rejection but I live in a pretty mild climate so didn’t care too much.

I took someone else's idea and painted my tires. Since the "etorque" badge on the hood is blue, I went with blue tire paint.

I love the look, but this was a big pain to do. I had to pull the tires off in order to paint them on a table. Also, the words on my tire are recessed with rubber ribbing inside. That was really hard to spread tire paint over. Before I finished, I ran out of paint. With the little bit I had I decided to just paint the outlines. That was temporary until I was able to get more paint pens. I think that in the future (when the paint wears off) I will just do the outlines. Fun little project though.

Had mine done a couple most ago. Runoff is biodegradable. I used NH Oil.
I had NHOU done last fall and had NO smell or dripping. They kept my truck overnight. Maybe that's why. I will probably bring it back for a touch up (if needed) before every winter. IMG_5647.jpg IMG_5648.jpg IMG_5649.jpg

Got a great deal on this from a fellow member.

I expect no gains, just some intake noise and looks

The oil spray is amazing. Definitely helps minimize the rust. Especially if you give a good clean in the spring to get rid of any dirt. Then spray it.

I took my spare off and put a silicone spray on the rubber from Krown. Coated the rim with Krown oil too.

Outlines look better than whole letter

Agreed, except the first thing I did was fill in a letter. Once I realized that the outlines looked better it was too late.

It looks pretty slick from a few paces away and probably has a nice blue streak when rolling down the road.

Too much in my opinion, but around $330 plus shipping or not and taxes. Part number is 68444540AB. High cost mainly comes because there is a camera in it.
Oh wow I didn’t realize it had cameras and stuff. I don’t have any tuner or tazer product to add the cameras so that’s useless for me. Thanks! It looks wayyy better though

Takes more than a Tazer or alfaOBD to get the camera to work. There is a whole wiring harness and rearview mirror, and people who have tried in the 19-20 trucks say it still won't work.

Bought a Bedrug tailgate cover. It's mainly for my grandson, who likes to sit up there. A little bit more padding. (y)

Looks alright, I guess. I wish the hook and loop Velcro was of better quality. I think it would be better if the top had a hook and loop strip all the way across. I might switch it out.

My experience with bearing is the supplied hook/loop strips are more than sufficient and good quality.
