    fresh 5% all the way around. i hit a big a$$ bug in arkansas on my way to texas and it cracked my windshield so wen i get a new one im going to see if i can get one with 35% percent then do a 7 inch strip of 5% on the top. i do love my tinted windows.

    so havent updated this in a while so i though i would. not much else done to it, just painted my dash and door panels, thanksgiving im taking my bench up to cleveland where my granpa said he would rewrap it however i want for just the cost of material. i have a few ideas going through my mind but im not sure. its deffinatly going to be black with a little purple in it. also went back to the steelies with the beauty rings.

    I like the wheels. I wish I still had my stockers. Looks good with the beauty rings, just need some chrome lug nuts and/or center cap. A local junk yard has a set of older Yota stockers with chrome beauty rings and center caps that I want really bad. If I get 'em I'm gonna paint the wheels red, orange, or lime green.

    As far as the steering wheel, what about one out of an SR5? They are a 3 spoke.

    I think any one of 'em would look badass. I plan on getting the Chicane (the 3rd one).

    no progress on the truck, cept my exhaust fell off on a two lane road with no shoulder, so its gone. i wasnt about to stop in the middle of the road right after a hill and get smashed. so im thinking of running my exhaust out my fender infront of the tire or something. dont let freinds that say they can weld do an exhaust for you. lol anyways does anyone know where i could get a carbon fiber hood? i know its prolly a long shot but itd be cool if someone knew where to get one

    i want to go to a four runner front end but i love how my newish grille looks. i dunno if i wanna do it yet andthe headunit is the boss bv9555. its ok i guess but if its cold out side like its been here in st. louis since i got it the screen will freeze up and you can say goodbye to listening or seeing anything for about 30 minutes. but i got it off CL for 180 bucks so i cant complain to much lol

    thanks, i think im either going to get the third or fourth one for sure just got to save up some more moneys

    Well, I was in my class at school today and my buddy was sittin like two chairs away..
    And I guess almost no one here knows about my binder,... but my school binder is full of decals and stuff...
    Lol so he asks, "Where did you get that Toyota Mini sticker from?"
    I told him "Oh it's this Toyota Mini truck forum"
    He's like, "Really? My brother's on there, he has a black pick up with the 4-Runner clip and some 5 spoke Weld wheels"
    So I'm thinkin, wtf!
    lol...
    And I knew he's from St. Louis so I just went ahead and searched the forum for St. Louis, bam found you!


    The school I go to is UTI in Houston, and my buddy is your brother Connor! Lol.. What a small world!

    I really like the purple interior. I use to have a dodge dakota with that same color of purple for interior. All the images are not working on your thread and I would like to see a couple more pictures of the outside or your truck with the wheels on it if you have a couple.
