Slick ride man! I am quite jelly of your wheels...
As for that crooked LRG sticker on the window...
A couple cheap mods I'd recommend for you that I feel make a HUGE difference would be cutting the rubber off of the bottom of the rear mud flaps, tint-matching the front windows, a nicer looking exhaust tip (perhaps a muffler too?) and perhaps some 01-02 tail lights if you can source them for cheap!
I think painting your emblems the fake black pearl would look good too! Moreso than just black, on your vehicle color.
Anyway, welcome to the forum!

I replaced mine with 4th gen horns that look exactly like yours so I'm thinking your dad got 2nd gen Tacoma horns....however mine are louder but have a much lower tone compared to the wimpy 3rd gen horn.

Looks good!
Have you tried Mr. Clean Magic Erasers on the letters of your tires? I don't know if you care that much, but those are the things that used to bug me about my 4Runner!

the 4Runner looks pretty great. you are a very lucky kid to have that in HS.
cheap mods you might want to look into:
1) reverse your tires so the letters are on the inside
2) put a decent chrome tip on that exhaust. I suggest the Tundra TRD tip -pics in my thread.
Those wheels look great BTW

Those are exactly what I have.

Totally forgot to put this in the build thread. About a month ago i got a 12" Kenwood sub. Duel ported. And a new amp. This thing shakes my car!
One question I have is that Whenever im driving i ALWAYS drive with the rear window down. Along with the front windows down. A buddy of mine told me that its bad to have the rear window down because the sub will get too much air. Not sure if this is correct but if anybody knows and can fill me in that would be great!

Picked up my lift for the front today! OME 883 and Bilstein 5100 adjustable shocks. Thanks to South-O 4RnR for hooking it up.

I think "bad" is the wrong term to use. The only effect it has is changing how much air the sub has to displace. Having the back window down changes how the bass sounds. I usually drive with mine 1/2 down, it makes the bass hit harder.
And nice on the front lift. What's the plan for the back end?

I've noticed the the bass does hit a little harder the the window is down. And i usually cruise with it 1/4 of the way down.
The back is already lifted. OME 906 springs and Monroe shocks. Putting the front suspension in on wednesday. I'll post some pictures.
