Assistance/Advice on upgrades

[LordAbdullah]

Hey guys! I'm new to this forum, so in advanced I apologize if I chose the wrong thread or anything (This is my first forum site ever, I have no clue.)

But I have a 2004 4runner limited v8, silver.

I was thinking about doing some upgrades:

1) Interior lighting, and underglow (purple)
2) A double din installation (I need something efficient that has a nice screen and gives good features, suggestions?)
3) RIMS. I need a good set of 20+ rims that I can put on the ride, I rendered some Lexani's on Photoshop but Im not feeling it.
4) Some JDM stickers here and there.. make it cool, not rice it out though..

Performance:
5) An Exhaust. Is Gibson any good? Im kind of restricted to a budget.
6) CAI, K&N good? or should I go Volant

Any other suggestions for performance that are cheap and useful, be sure to give me advice !

I'm very new.. to this forum, and to driving. So if anything I said sounded stupid, sorry again. lmao! I'm only 17

not rice it out though..

lol..



I suggest looking at the build thread of Fosheezy's 2008. Its the only good looking 4th gen of that type, imo.

lmao I see you laughed at my rice comment, I know the underlighting is like one the biggest rice upgrades I can do to a car.. but I have this weird obsession with stuff lighting up so you know. I checked out Fosheezys 2008, i didn't know his name but his page was the one that motivated me to make an account haha. Those HIDs, damn! I hope one day mine will be considered good looking!

Just do interior lighting if you don't want to "rice it up." Good white LEDs in the footwell can give a convenience package type of feel if they're wired to activate when the dome lights activate.

That being said, this is a 4Runner, not an FR-S. Not really meant to be "super JDM," but there's definitely a few things you can do to it that are in good taste.

That's exactly what I ended up doing ordered some wedge 194 bulbs, for interior and running boards, and the license plate
