Talking Huskies are in! Mudflaps are on!

Did some work on the Runner today. Finally got my Huskies in the mail. They are Awesome! Glad I went that route. Also bolted on my mudflaps too. Tired of slinging crap all over the truck from the road. Also today I used a product called T-Cut on my paint. Let me tell you this is some good stuff. Made my white paint totally change colors!! After I T-Cutted the whole thing I waxed it by hand. Man what a job that is especially with a mean hangover. Took me about 4 hours to do it all. Not bad. Here are some pics of the flaps and mats.
A before and after shot




Here are the flaps. I am not sure if I like them yet or not. Looking for some other opinions.




Had to cut out that small square on the drivers mat for the gas pedal. Other than I am happy with them.

Looks good Joey, and same flaps as I have

The Husky's should work out great for you. Only wish I got to test mine out today with some good Greenwater dirt

I missed the run today due to a very bad case of insomnia last night.
Had the rig all packed & ready to go too.

What's next on your mod list

Yeah, looks good Joey. I may have to check them out later on down the line, the Huskies that is. They do look good. Is that the only grey color that they have for them, because my interior is darker? Otherwise, they look awesome and mudflaps are a good thing too. Nice work! :fireman:

Looking good! I like the mud flaps ... looks like a clean install.

You will like your Huskies, I'm glad I have them, everytime I go to vacuum my rig, I rarely have sand or dirt on my floors, the Huskies catch it all.

The Huskies work as advertised! Last night I had buddy driving us home from the races and we took a slight detour on the way home. Anyways we hit a big bump and my dropped my beer. I know alcohol abuse but at least the Huskies caught it all and kept if off the carpet! Oh BTW for those law minded guys on here there's NO open container law here in the UK.

It looks like the t-cut did a very good job on the paint work it now looks nice bright white, it time to get it muddy again!
P.S. I have found a list of off-road sites and clubs all over the country in a 4x4 mag i found this week so i will have to pass on the details .

Do you guys recommend ordering the Huskies online versus buying them in a local store? Is it cheaper to order them?

I was thinking of taking the flaps off my 89 4runner

I got mine from Cabellas.com. They were quite a bit cheaper than anywhere else I have seen them. I think that's about as cheap as you will find them.

Those huskies look good, makes me have second thoughts about planning to put new carpet down and instead just buy some of them.

I like the huskies. The factory mats have me a little woried that they will look like crap soon. Even though they are still in brand new condition it doesn't take much to get them messed up.

The paint restorer beats the heck out of
rubbing compound on a white vehicle.

By the way,looking at your pictures your truck is in immaculate condition. That's one spoiled rig.
