John Jordon at Sideline Automotive in Williamsburg. He has done a lot of work for me in the past on other cars and it has always been flawless!

Wow, Looks Killer

I would venture to say it's one of the best 4th gens I've ever laid my eyes upon

Well, I finally got my 2006 4R V8 back with the following mods done:

• Bilstein 5100 shocks 2.5" lift
• Daystar rear lift
• 17" K2 Offroad Sphinx wheels, - 12 offset
• BFG KO2 275/70R17 tires
• Black headlights w/HID
• Katzskin factory grey leather all 3 rows
• WeatherTech mats front and rear
• Change factory silver paint to metallic blue (very close to Tyndra Electric BLue Metallic)

Here are the pics (Sorry if they are the wrong size...this is the first time I have posted pics!)

Next on the list: changing the dash light color from orange to white with blue needles, then maybe a stereo).

THANKS to those that helped me with the various research I asked here!

Did you pair the 5100's up with your stock springs? If so, how does it ride at 2.5"?

Super nice!

Makes me want to paint mine now. Black is a pain in the arse.

Looks Great!

Awesome job overall, that paint color really puts it over the top!

 

[Old Jarsh]

I suddenly like that blue color

Thanks for the compliments!

Could not keep the 285s, the KO2s are 275s

Got the headlights from here: Toyota 4Runner Aftermarket Angel Eye Halo Projector Headlights (HID Xenon)

I got a steal on the paint job- $2500 for a complete color change, including removing the doors, rear hatch, fender flares and hood so that when you open anything and look into the doorjambs or underside of the hood, it is the new color as well instead of the old silver. He gave me a great price because I have brought him a fair amount of business.

Hadn't even thought about the mudflaps, but I appreciate the advice and I think I'll go remove them right now!

Any chances of him doing a similar price for me!? I am located in VA and would definitely be interested in having a complete paint job from one color to another :lol:

Love your color choice, Its awesome to stay in the family.

Like Toyota might have almost accidentally made that color, its just really really rare !
Will draw lots of T4R eyeballs trying to figure that one out !

Sorry, late response...

I doubt he would do that price again. It took a LOT of time, more than he thought, plus I brought him a lot of business in the past.

But I am sure he would beat anyone else's price you'd find.

I'd be glad to ask him for you if you give me the specifics, though, and get you a price.
