    Installed a matte black piece of vinyl on the hood "scoop" aka "The Reflector". Purchased from Chris - "MyWyfsRnnr" on the forum.
    Good guy to deal with - he shipped quickly, sent a quality product and provided a great set of instructions.

    I kinda wanna do this too. But I never noticed the glare in eight years until last summer. Maybe I only noticed it then because it was after I read about it here.

    I've had the hood scoop glare on several occasions and want to do this. Rather than just the black matte though, I want the kick ass topo in black matte with red lines he sells. Last I checked though he was having issues finding a supplier

    2014 Neglected by the previous owners 2020 is an abused former rental... 2023 New I've been buying above my pay grade ☹️
    I pulled off a cover in order to access the front of the radiator and a bunch of crap that blew onto it. Underneath the plastic clips, I found exposed bare metal for my eight month old new car. When I was routing wires after I first bought it, I noticed something odd in the door jam, which was some of the primer I have owned other Japanese made Toyotas that were painted white and that was never the case...

    I do mostly road riding on Long Island. There are limited trail areas, and it's very flat for the most part on LI. There are some decent spots if you just want to spend a couple hours or less on the trail. I'm more focused on longer distance adventures, which generally means getting off the island to somewhere less populated with more varied terrain.

    If you don't mind me asking how much did this run you?

    I was thinking about going 5% in the rear for privacy and darkening up the front a bit too. Ceramic windshield and sunroof to block the Texas heat as well.
    Got a quote and the price is crazy high... but it's a reputable shop that does high end vehicle wraps so that's likely on me.

    But I'm curious how much higher it truly is...

    Good prices! I was quoted 750 for ceramic on all side and back glass. An additional 700 for ceramic windshield plus visor strip, and ceramic sunroof. Lifetime warranty for defects. I haven't pulled the trigger yet but I did put down 100$ to schedule it.

    The owner also told me that includes reinstalling my dash camera and giving me a roll of static cling film for future inspection stickers. Price is high but I like these guys and want it to be done right. The owner even tried to talk me out of the ceramic sunroof quote "if you don't usually have the cover open it might be a waste of money. The cover does a good job blocking heat"
    I usually do leave my cover open. I like the sunlight, just not the heat! So I opted for the sunroof ceramic as well.

    there are probably an infinite number of these. If you turn your tires you’ll notice some “aprons” clipped into the body and the frame by the fender well. That material is lose and flaps around, and the frame and body parts are all exposing bare metal because of it.

    We should start a sticky thread for all rust risks we discover and try to collectively expose them and suggests ways to fix them.

    I love going through this thread time and again.
    But sadly it gives me ideas on what my next mod will be.
    So its safe to say this thread costs me money :)

    Added rear triangle window molding panel on each side. It is made of aluminum. At first I was not to sure if I liked it. After I mounted them, it looked pretty good.
