Boy I don't see the 
but if you are not happy then take it back. Compare your beautiful bodywork to my crappy bodywork on my truck and I think you will be pleased.
Those tails and hood look soooo much better to. I want to buy your truck when your done with it and put some parts on it
.
I still can't believe your lariat does not have the back up sensors. Mine saved my butt the other day, I had loaded the bed up with lawn mowers to go cut some properties and I pulled ahead to let my buddy in. we got ready to leave and as I slowly shifted from park to drive it was in reverse long enough to beep. I looked back to see the tail gate down. Had I left I would have had lawn mowers rolling down the road! The lawn boy 500!

So how do you like loading things in and out of your truck with it being 23 feet in the air?
Thanks man, they did do a pretty good job but once I spied the wave I know it's there now. The only thing is it has to be just the right lighting. I think it's good enough though and the other work they did is absolutely gorgeous.
Oh yeah, I never got you pics of the windshield did I? Ah well, just go get it done already would ya!!
Truckfest at Summit this weekend!!!!!!

Hey John, as long as you have the "right light" when you take it back up to the bodyshop. Nothing worse than "well, it has to be night time with a mercury light above and to the right 23 degress while crouching down and looking up". If it is obvious, take it back. I wish the dude before me would have with that little spot on the bed. Thats unacceptable.
As far as loading things 23 feet in the air it does suck at times.
On the bright side, My last tacoma was regular height and I went to a friends house with a keg in the bed. When I got there the keg was fine but the tap had rolled up to the front of the bed. I got the keg and my buddy said he would get the tap and before I could yell no, he had leaned in from the side of the bed and pushed his belt buckle into the steel. Slight dent and scratch on a brand new truck! I just remember him telling me to relax or something because he couldn't see it. $24,000, 500 miles and relax? That put a damper on my good mood.
No one is leaning in the bed on a 23 foot truck, or door dings.
I still think I want to do 2 more inches with the bilsteins. Might be to hillbilly though.

BTW, 2 more inches won't matter at this point Andy, you've already reached hillbilly status
