    I really haven't decided about the exterior.. I really want to body drop it.. I have a new dash for it though... it's butt naked inside.., i'll take some pictures of it tomorrow.. I have to clean it either way.. it's been sitting for a couple of months now.. I have a flat tire, but don't have the money to buy two new tires for the front..

    I wanted to put caddies on mine a while back ago, but ended up changing my mind.. just never got around to doing it that my taste changed a little bit.., but they do look nice though..

    caddies are only cheap to install if you do them yourself.

    i do but i dont have anything on there really jus a couple interior shots that i modded little cheap stuff.. i been racking my brains to figure out how to get the 4runner grill n lights on without cutting too much of the core so once i find a way, pics will b up...i NEED to put that grill on tho cuz my front end looks horrible with the 2wd bumper (black) and chrome 4runner corners lol

    That's cool though.. at least it's a work in progress right? I don't know much about the 4runner grill and lights, but I suspect that it shouldn't be that hard.. are you going to keep the 2wd bumper with the 4runner grill and and lights? i know what you mean about the chrome and black.. my side lights are chrome and I want to paint them black so at least they can match with the grill..

    yea i went with a chrome 2wd bumper and i have a black valance but im eventually gonna make a 1 pc smoothie out of them...kinda... okay exactly like phatmitzu did, but my fog lights r gonna b different and without the lip. i woulda went with the 4runner bumper n valance too but its a plastic valance n i see that alot, ive only seen one other 2wd bumper 4runner grill. i like the top of the bumper being smooth unlike the 4wd with that dip in it and yea its a work in progress lol

    That's cool.. it sounds like it's going to be sick!! I had the 4wd bumper on my truck, but I didn't like it for the same reason..
