Oh man that sucks, sorry to hear about your frustrations! Plastidip works amazingly well around emblems and such just because it peels off so easily around the edges of the emblem where you don't want it to be and stays put on the emblem, but doing racing stripes is a different story, it isn't...

It's holding very well actually, there's only one spot on one of the matte black racing stripes that got peeled up a little bit from a rock that bounced out of a semi while I was driving, but it seems to have protected the actual paint from any scratches so I'm pretty impressed! I'd definitely...

Without further ado, here it is! There are a few little behind the scenes tweaks that I'd like to do still but here is the final result of this venture. I've always been skilled with electronics but I'd never played around with relays before so that was initially a slightly confusing experience...

Well I finished the backlighting and here is what it looks like on my electronics bench. It's already been wired up into my 4Runner and I'm just editing a video so I'll post that in a bit. https://vimeo.com/172146059 Semper Fi, Nate Miller (Sgt, USMC Retired) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk...

It's been quite awhile since I've logged in so here's a quick update: I was busy with various medical issues, surgeries, and physical therapy so it took me quite a bit longer to get around to the things I've been working on than I wanted. Here's a picture of the current status of my 4Runner (it...

Hey Richard, sorry it took me so long to see this, I hadn't logged in for some time as you can see. But I used the Aerosol Plastidip that just comes in a can. It's REALLY easy to use and if you eff up too bad you can just peel it all off. But you don't need to remove the emblems or even mask...

Really, you were with 3rd CAG? I was with 4th at the Gov Center in Ramadi with 1/6 Bravo! We replaced 3rd, don't tell me you were in Ramadi? That'd be a real small world! Semper Fi!

Thanks! Semper Fi.

Painted Grille I finished painting the grille inserts, I didn't put the bottom insert in yet because I still have to wire up the Punisher Emblem LED to the Daytime Running Lights that are attached to it.

Steering Wheel cover. I purchased it through eBay, here's the link for it if you're interested? They have different designs and color schemes if the black and red isn't your cup of tea. Steering Wheel Cover

Punisher Grille Emblem Update. I got my Punisher Skull replacement emblem in and put it on so I've added 3 more photos. I still need to paint the billet grille inserts red and put them back on as well as to wire up the backlighting for the emblem and figure out how to mount the LED's. I got...

I've recently done several customizations to my 2007 Limited V8 4Runner so I thought I'd share a few photos. 1) Sport Hood Scoop: My 4Runner is a Limited, and it didn't have the Sport hood with the scoop, so I purchased a 3D Carbon pre-painted hood scoop. I used some mesh grille that I cut to...

Looks great! Hey thanks Terri it looks awesome, that's exactly what I'm looking to do! Do you know the approximate amount that it cost you to buy, have it painted, and installed?

Hi, I've got a 2007 4Runner Limited and I'm interested in having an aftermarket hood scoop put on it to make it look like the Sport. So I'm wondering if anyone knows what something like this might cost, both the scoop itself as well as the installation? Or possibly even an entire aftermarket...
