Best way to make your 4runner more manly!
I'm about to buy a 2008 V8 4Runner Sport Edition.
What should I do first to it to make it more beefy looking? I was thinking some bigger tires and maybe some spacers? What do you recommend to get, and what would be the price of it?
I was also thinking about getting a roof rack.

small lift and tires are the best thing to do. i've addded slightly larger than stock tires, tint, blacked everything out, shackles for recovery points, HID's and aftermarket exhaust and it still looks like 99% of the soccer moms driving around except to other enthhsiest.

You should just buy my 4runner because it looks pretty manly. I'm a girl...but that's irrelevant.
Lift it, big tires, steel bumper/winch (if you can shell out the coin) and you'd be pretty set IMO.

The cheapest way is to not EVER wash it.
It'll get manlier and manlier every day.
