    keep the NObama ones and the gas pedal one. Ditch the rest. mainly snoopie? and the apple sign. every body knows you get a free apple sticker with a ipod so thieves love it when you give them a warning on whats most likely in your glove box.

    I am pretty sure you get apple stickers with any/all apple products.

    Funny you say that as they are my two least favorites
    I do have to say tho that technically it's not snoopy... It's him as "joe cool"
    and the apple sticker looks cheap next to the vinyls as for it being an advertisement of my trucks content... They would be disapointed as my iPhone is never left alone in the truck and besides my truck is rarely ever somewhere it will get broken into, not impossible I know but unlikely

    thanks for all the comments guys... It is a bit "busy" but so far I like it, I'm sure I'll change it soon enough...

    The rims are awesome and the main reason I bought the truck!
    It looks so much better than the other fj's out there, the rest look so housewife grocery getter with 17" aluminum rims and street tires...
    Not to mention the white roof on another color truck... Yech!!
    LOL

    LOL SD!

    So my father does my mothers friends brakes... I ended up helping and did the front rotors and pads, my dad did the rear drums
    the slack adjuster came loose... Dad had the springs in wrong
    so the car starts making grinding noises
    we go out to rescue in my truck
    my dad drives the car home as I'm following down the Road behind him the slack adjuster found it's way out and bounce.... BAM!

    Her insurance is covering it...

    Oh well better than my GTO or my MINI!!

    So how do you like the FJ ? I drive a FJ at work and it really annoys me sometimes. You have to rely on those stupid oversize mirrors so much. Can't see anything out the rear or the side of the truck. The windows are really to small. But other than that I like the truck.

    Nice rim vinyls. Are they the ebay ones? I was thinking about them for a truck we have. A couple maybe.

    I had a little trouble at first with the blind spots to the side but don't mind the rear window, after 50,000+ miles I'm pretty used to it...!
    Love the truck especially since it a limited edition trail team so not many have the black on white look...

    yep got em on eBay from this guy
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...witem=&sspagename=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_2288wt_796
    their pretty good quality and come with two spares (wish it was 4 since I need to buy another set for my spare tire mounted on the back)
    their in quarter sections so there pretty easy to work with
    I got my first set using "best offer" for 15 and just offerred 14 for a second set
    they reflect really well!! 8)
