    clamped on slip fitted exhaust isnt a bad thing... it holds together just fine so long as the clamps hold tight.

    just a small update but i installed my 4runner fenders and clear corners a few days ago... modified the headlight housing mounts and cut into the core support so the housing tabs sit flush.

    How are you running the c4's? Are you running adapters or did you have the wheels re-drilled.

    Probably adapters. A guy on here had a set on a 77ish lux too. Better than your dumb plastic hub caps :ROFL:

    its pretty simple, but ill take some pictures and post them here. i had to bend the very outter edges of the core where the headlights go and drill two holes for the outter bolt holes to have a mounting area. then i cut a notch into the top inner core area where the tab needs room to bolt into the core flush.
