Getting expensive to hang around here

[kurt1011]

Appreciate all the great ideas and help here...but it's getting expensive. i just ordered the color-keyed grille and been investigating the TRD CAI...

Koz, did you order one yet?

yea, tell me about it. I just bought my 4R on 05/26 and in less than one week I spent just under 5 G's and I still gotta get my Black Pearl Emblems, seat covers, alarm & Tint within the month.

Under 5G's? Good lord!

I had my fair share of mods but nothing close to that...

it was all the Jaos stuff and the damn Borla exhaust that were the really big ticket items.

ouch!!!! 5G? it's kinda hurt. what color is your 4R? i want to see some pictures of the Jaos after installed. but since my 4R is white, i am not too sure if it will look good with all the guard on, at least i know it looks very nice on black 4R. i am still struggling on Jaos part, the front bull bar msrp is around $1500 already, my wife is gonna kill me,

Lucky, I don't have a wife. But my girlfriend still wants to kill me
My 4R is Black. I posted pics when I bought it at the dealer.

I already picked up the Jaos stuff (they're about 20 minutes from my work) but can't install it until June 25th cuz I'm going on a road trip the week before and I figure I would save on gas.
The white looks awesome too. go to the Jaos site and theres pic of a white 4runner with the bull/brush guard (front end picture only) and I think it looks really nice.:

Where did you get yours? Someone said Partznet had them for 78 bucks but they show 135 for them on the site. And the dealership that's two miles from my house has them for 150-ish.

I want to do some custom work possibly to my old chrome one too :

 

[kurt1011]

purchased from the dealer for $145...they originally wanted $180, but would match Partznet + assumed $10 shipping.

well in the interest of continuing to pressure you the color-keyed grille was one of my favorite changes so far, so keep that on order

800 bucks is under 5g's, right? lol
but heck yeah modding is expensive. the price we pay to be different.

 

[blindside]

So true...

 

[kimboy]

darn, 5G's is like 2 years of gas for me.

 

[Jaebster]

Hey Kimboy, I'm sure you spent close to 2 G's alone when you got the TRD wheels and tires... No?

 

[kimboy]

Bought them for less then what I sold them for (And not before I put 25K miles on the Michelins)

Replaced the stock wheels with BFG AT/KO's. Can I call that maintenance? If not, yes, its an expensive Mod.

Yep, I've added a few mods, from Husky Liners, HID's, Scion Radio...

I'd be in trouble if there was a really good Intake and Headers for the V6.

And since I'm still under warranty, the lifts gotta wait for another 12K miles.
