Still waiting on tires, in the meantime I’ve added crossbars, black wheel cover, hitch extension. Tomorrow I’m installing the ladder. Should be fun!

Looks . Curious where you sourced your painted tire cover - did you have your original painted or did you purchase aftermarket?

Fun fact: Technically the calipers are "l'orange" and not red.

Yes indeed, Bay Area. This pic is near Clearlake and I live in the East Bay near Walnut Creek. You’re local too?

I am coming from a Tesla model S, this thing is an absolute beast to drive and I love it. I took it on a scenic tour today and made sure to bring my camera.














Looks amazing, love the accessories, it all works really well together. Only thing I’d add is some off road tires. But even as is, great purchase!!! Those classic mud flaps look f’ing amazing too!
