after wreck..... HELP ME PICKING OUT NEW STUFF!

[shootmymime]

ok i found out the damage to my 4runner is only $900.00 on body then $700.00 for a the brush guard and lights.

i have no idea what to get with the money i am getting, i know that i want a brush guard but dont know what!

i was looking a jaos but they are expensive,

kinda want a lift and vortex cherry bomb muffler.

give me pictures of brush guards/lifts/mufflers!

i dont know what to go for

heres a pic of my 2.5" Daystar spacer lift...

and a tip of my chrome tip, I can take some muffler pics tomorrow if you want, I have the cherry bomb vortex on there...i may do a video clip too of the sound...

let me know if you want any more pics of any specific parts of the truck, lift, muffler, etc...

check out dealsofsteel.com they have some fairly cheap brush guards just like your old one.

4rnr4me is ur lift spacer? looks good!

I have the cherry bomb vortex on there

how does it sound? ive never heard it in real life, but heard flowmaster and magnaflow.

i dont thnk ill go for a tip, but i would like 2 sticking straight out the back, then ill get tips.

i see u have clear corners, look alot nicer on yours than it would on my green

but all stock you truck is exactly the same as mine but mine is green! i have never seen one exaclty the same as mine, and yours is the closest i have ever seen.

[/IMG] its alot worse in real life

[4rnr4me]

yeap, its a spacer lift...i can take pics of the actual spacers on front and MAYBE in back but those are hard to see...

it sounds like a flowmaster 40 kinda...when im idling, its ALMOST too quiet...when Im going from 0-45 around town it sounds VERY good, and then on freeway its got a good sound

its a head-turner

I wouldnt go straight out the back, if you EVER plan on towing anything...go dual side pipes if you are, cuz the heat from the straight out pipes will melt/burn stuff

the clear corners would still look GREAT on yours though! and its a cheap mod

you're right though, we look the same!!! do you have oak/tan cloth interior like me too?

 

[RonMAIDEN]

I think clears stand out best on the darker colors.

 

[shootmymime]

ron your right it does, but i have orange blinker bumper and orange fogs, so i think ill keep the orange corer lights


4rnr4me: i dont need any pictures, i know what they look like,
i dont have a hitch and we dont have any trailors to i wont be towing, and i dont know if i can afford a custom exzost right now.

hey, can u tell me at what RPM is it quiet and then what RPM it sounds best at?, i ahve a K&N CAI, so i think a muffler would sound good too.... like the CAI sounds best between 2-3 rpm but sounds like its working at 4K

something like that


yes i ahve the tan w/ synthetic wood kit, is your wood faiding color from the sun like mine? kinda sucks, and its expensive, 500 bucks for a new wood kit,

its real wood people

 

[4rnr4me]

I dont have the wood kit...

other than that were basically the same

im going for a drive later, i will look...i have the K&N CAI also, and they make a great team

ill get back to you on that, as i dont recall

 

[shootmymime]

yeah that woul dbe great!

Ron, do u have a tint?

i also want a quality tint job, nothing that will bubble in a week! or turn blue or purple

 

[ron70062]

I have a Brushgaurd thats only 3 Mos. old Ill sell you cheap. It came off of my 2001. The first owner had just installed it. By the way...the License plate number is no good anymore.

 

[shootmymime]

sorry dude it wont fit my 96

 

[RonMAIDEN]

Yes,my tint is Llumar tint done by the previous owner which is 5% on the back windows and 15% on the fronts.

[shootmymime]

[4rnr4me]

definitely wanna have someone do it for how dang cheap it is!!!

ronMAIDEN, I FREAKIN LOVE your runner! its sooooooo clean! I want mine to look basically the same but in silver

Hey shootmymime,

the vortex has a nice deep sound at RIGHT below 2k rpm through a LITTLE over 3k...sounds really good cruising at 45mph...

on the freeway, sounds good all the way and LOUD when passing...

with the new muffler, I cant help but accelerate EVERY time I go through an underpass hahahaha

 

[shootmymime]

yeah i know ron has a nice car! but i think i would like black insted,


thanks that helps!

so i got howmuch it will be to fix my car, $3,000 then we have to pay 1,000 and insurance will pick up the tab, but its about 2000K in labor, and im sayn why cant i just do alll that myself, its not hard, kist alot od nuts and bolts, maybe a few days hard work in the garage, i dono, dont want to spend that much!

 

[RonMAIDEN]

Your center caps are fading

Actually they're aren't fading but the silver spray paint I used has turned slightly gold in color for some reason after only a year and will require a redo in the spring with a paint that can handle UV rays. I used Testors model car paint and will have to use an actual car spray paint next time.



4rner4me,thanks for the props.
