Toyota fan from way back to 1980 when overseas and owned a landcruiser. Just purchased a new 2010, 5.7 Tundra 4x4 made by Texans. Adding a few exterior items and have purchased a T Rex billet grille. Instructions are naff so wondering if anyone could point me to a link for better instructions. (or failing that an good installer in Houston). Cheers and thanks. ]]> Exterior Shane http://www.toyotatundraforum.com/exterior/6510-newbie.html <![CDATA[Question For Raptor 4" Oval Side Step Owners]]> http://www.toyotatundraforum.com/exterior/6495-question-raptor-4-oval-side-step.html Thu, 12 Nov 2009 05:24:52 GMT Just installed my Raptor 4" Oval Stainless Steel Side Steps and they look great, however, ther are not level. Front to back pitch is okay but the step slopes down (edge closest to truck is higher than the outside edge). Anybody have the same problem? I suppose I could shim to level them but I just want to check the forum first. These are mounted on a 2010 DC. ]]> Exterior SDeGonge http://www.toyotatundraforum.com/exterior/6495-question-raptor-4-oval-side-step.html Looking for a nice Black Brush guard, or possibly a bull bar http://www.toyotatundraforum.com/exterior/6479-looking-nice-black-brush-guard-possibly.html Mon, 09 Nov 2009 04:20:57 GMT I'm looking for a brush guard to put on my new Tundra, problem is I have no idea where to find such things for this truck. :1headscratch2: I like the brush guards better but some bull bars look fairly decent too, they just don't give the protection the brush guards do.

Thanks for any advice. ]]> Exterior WildDog http://www.toyotatundraforum.com/exterior/6479-looking-nice-black-brush-guard-possibly.html Paramount grille install.. http://www.toyotatundraforum.com/exterior/6459-paramount-grille-install.html Fri, 06 Nov 2009 22:34:13 GMT Today we installed the Paramount Grille. This is the 8 mm version. Image: http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t51/runeight/Truck/001-9.jpg ... Today we installed the Paramount Grille. This is the 8 mm version.



Here are some pictures of the Carriage Works bolt over grille that was on the truck.





At this time Paramount did not offer any inserts for the valance. I was undecided how this was going to look but was happy with the outcome.

It really looks good to me.









When installing you need to start inside and work out. Slowly "draw" the grill into place and tighten the very end "last". Keep an eye on it for fitment.

I would also recommend using the factory nuts with collars. I did. It draws the grille more evenly.

This picture shows the bolts supplied but I changed them out after the picture. Please note this procedure MM.

.

In closing I love the grille. The absence of the "eyebrow" is much cleaner. The 8 mm grille along with the Carriage Works valance grille looks good. I did leave the clear bug shield off.

Now I have two of them sitting around. :)

I think I'm ready to buy the Raptor stainless ovals from SVCustoms ($273) for my 2010 Nautical Blue DC. I just didn't know how much weight they'll support since they're not attached to the frame. Actually I couldn't find this info for any of the tubes I was looking at (thought that was kind of odd). Can anyone help me on this?

Pretty neat if you did not have fogs and were wanting them..These look cool in smoke..But would not be feasible to change them out if you already have fogs..Would be much cheaper to just lightly tint them.

They also have the regular ones too.

I was wondering if Toyota secretly fixed that problem. I doubt they would make that public knowledge. I drove from Austin to Houston today and back, and on some roads I thought that my bed was going to fall off, such an annoying issue, especially when they got so many other things right. Anyway let me know if you newer owners are experiencing that as well.
