Hi guys I'm new to tritons and this site. I bought my ml about 4 months ago and coming from a 408rwhp falcon to the triton is the best thing I've done so comfy so far I've done a 2" lift, put a nudge bar and lid on and now put a light bar and led spot lights and new tires on Click to view larger picture

So here's my things I've done sence November last year going from how we bought it to to the lid (not really happy with) to the nudge bar then the switches in the sunglass holder then got the tray for a duel battery (2nd battery still to come) power int the tub for the fridge or anything else then to the light bar and spot lights in the fog light hole and how bright they are then the 2" iron man lift and the kumhos at's 265/70r16. To be done hopefully a sports bar lid, under body protection and a snorkel

Yeah I love the colour the neighbour around the corner had the same colour but some knob lost control and wrote his ute off I'm trying to find his ute to buy the lid. For all LEDs I've only spent up $380 so I'm pretty happy with it so far

Are you planing on painting it?
I don't hate that look to be honest, probably the only colour combo that could work :)
