I was deciding between the Limited And XRT trim and I loved the XRT styling but want the limited’s features so I thank you for this video now I know I can do it myself lol
I am in the exact same boat (went with the Limited)! The XRT and Night trims have wonderfully aggressive styling, but I also wanted the Limited features, specifically the Bose sound system. Now I can have both! 😁
I noticed a few dissenters in the Baja community about the Cruz, they don't think the Cruz can be cool. I think your Cruz might be what will change their mind someday. Wooow, that new trim is incredible, especially the yellow lettering, I cannot wait to see what's next on your list. The Go-Pro mounts above the wheels will make for some exciting off-road shenanigans.
Agreed lol. I hear a lot of talk about the maverick being closer and I could not agree with them to much like a truck where the Cruz with the short bed has a stronger resemblance to an adventure vehicle. Can't wait to continue the build!!
@@AdventureGT Glad you agree. The Maverick looks like an ugly 90's truck from the front in my opinion. The Cruz is much, much more tasteful in appearance.
@@jamesh3354 I do spend a lot of time and money keeping mine running. I get a lot of looks and even shouts across parking lots. The Baja is fun in a cultural sense but not so much to drive! (Especially with the 4AET!)
I am ver happy for you that you can have this vehicle. Today I was thinking. If i couldn't have the Limited, I would get a $30.000ish one. But would HAVE TO have three things: The 2.5L turbo engine, AWD and the 10.2" screen on the inside. I don't really care about the screen with gauges although it has nifty featutes. Am more of a analog guy. But with those three things I'd be happy. The rest would fall in place over time. About the flates I would wait till someone makes wider flares that come out more. So I could fit fat tires on with sexy 20" deep dish rims under them. After I lowered it. 💪😎👍👍🤙😉
Mmm, perhaps. The still connect the flair to fender in the middle bolted down. But thee is probably enough 3m tape, and clips to not need them specifically
I love the side garish. I have a Sand color also. I need to get them. I don’t personally love the large fender flares. Maybe aftermarket ones will come although base fine for me. I have a limited but feel the unpainted door handles look better. I also can’t stand the limited wheels so I bought the base wheels you have (which I think are great on this truck) for snows and then swapped the 20’s with Palisade Wheels (identical specs). The Palisades aren’t awesome but anything is better than the limited 20’s to me. Good luck…
I got mine from. I bought mine from the dealer ship in town. But you can get it at world oem parts Or hyundai oem parts direct. Door garnish part number: K5F32-AC000 Fender flair kit part number:K5F32-AC600
Unfortunately the Ebay sell I bought mine from doesn't sell them any more. I think there is another retailer in the santa cruz Fourms but I'm not sure.
I can't remember the size. And the ebay seller doesn't offer them any more, this website sells them. But they are kind of pricey. The can body match the color though. designertrim.com/collections/exterior/products/hysc22lo2-hyundai-santa-cruz-pickup
Appreciate your support! I'm digging the SC had my first run in with blizzard like conditions. My only complaint is the tires. The Htrack seems really capable. But she definitely needs a set of All terrain tires.
@@AdventureGTyes 50/50 tires will be great for safety, ride and it’s +2 points to the coolness on the block. Thank you for you video. SC looks beautiful with these new upgrades. I’m from Canada and thinking to go down to US to get brand new SC with naturally aspirated motor and regular gearbox. In Canada with only have turbo.
I love installing those particular items with the tape. It makes it so easy. Great job on the video guys.
Appreciate it!
Great Job explaining the steps by steps procedure. Looks great.

I had a Baja. Meh it was ok but wouldn’t say it was fun to drive. The Santa Cruz on the other hand is a blast.

The Cruze is definitely not a off road machine. But has tons of potential to be a sweet street machine. ❤
I will keep mine stock… to increase its value in 30-40 years lol 😂
Great vid btw. 😎👍
Some very cool upgrades. That gopro mount 👌 is awesome.
Thanks for the great video. My door garnish arrived but included no templates. WaitIng for dealer to reorder.
That's strange. But I'm glad the dealership is taking care of you. Good luck with the install!
Looks great.

Thank you for this video. I also noticed that there aren't any clickable links to any of the items used including the stickers.
Oh shoot! Didn't realize that. I'll drop the part numbers In there for others looking.
The yellow lettering really pops. I can't believe they aren't offered with a choice of colors. That small detail work can be tedious.
So you actually can get color matched but the price goes up to over 100$ 😅 maybe later haha
@@AdventureGT money is a big incentive to get creative!
Nice job looks great, I like it.
How are the vinyl decals for the door garnish listed on eBay. I can't find them.
The seller no longer offers them. Here is an alternative.

Where did all these come from, something I may do…? Good tutorials!
Gonna order some for mine. Thanks!
My 2022 sel non turbo came with those mods from the dealer minus the go pro mount … since then added 25mm spacers
All that work on the El Hyundai-nimo look good any.
Get you some mud guards to protect your door garnish. Or, get your Santa Cruz ceramic coated
Great video!! If you had no intention of ever installing the gopro mount... do you think you could forgo the rivnuts entirely?
Mmm, perhaps. The still connect the flair to fender in the middle bolted down.
But thee is probably enough 3m tape, and clips to not need them specifically
where do I get the side rockers like the xrt
I love the side garish. I have a Sand color also. I need to get them.
I don’t personally love the large fender flares. Maybe aftermarket ones will come although base fine for me. I have a limited but feel the unpainted door handles look better.

Good luck…
Coulnt agree more! The limiteds where every unattractive to me. Hope some more aftermarket parts show up as well!
Your lucky to get the sand color because it is discontinued, so I guess you got a rare car !
Where can I find this kit ?
I got mine from. I bought mine from the dealer ship in town.
But you can get it at world oem parts
Or hyundai oem parts direct.
Door garnish part number: K5F32-AC000
Fender flair kit part number:K5F32-AC600
Sorry how can I find stickers for the right size for the garnish?
Unfortunately the Ebay sell I bought mine from doesn't sell them any more. I think there is another retailer in the santa cruz Fourms but I'm not sure.
What size letter to get to add color on the door garnish
I can't remember the size. And the ebay seller doesn't offer them any more, this website sells them. But they are kind of pricey. The can body match the color though.

How has the Santa Cruz been so far? Love the content!

I'm glad you enjoyed them. With more to come! Only got 8000 on my NA but I belive they are worth it
Where did you order the vinyl lettering kit?
They are now linked in the description
@@AdventureGT Thanks
Cost ?
How much is the cat?
5 money!
Cat is cool, I'll double his offer.
Lmao
cool, i'm looking a CaI
91 percent Alchohol works too
I’m worried that I will drink it 😢😂
Need spacers or different offset wheels now. Waay too sunken in
Totally upgraded. Check out our Santa Cruz Playlist for the currant set.
Before installation, get all your plastic pieces ceramic coated. You'll thank me later.
"Promo sm" 🍀
Its $350 off of Hyundai's website good grief!
If you bought anything from Hyundai. You paid 3 x more for it
