Itsdchz- 2015 SR5-P Build Thread

question...

Duplicolor flexible bumper coating in black. Used the Duplicolor clear plastic primer promoter first, about 3 coats medium. Then 7-8 light coats of the paint at different angles for the lettering.

Hi itsdchz...

Question about your front lower valance... Did you use the same paint as the emblems or plastidip? (sorry if I missed that info somewhere)

Also, other than cost, is there a reason not to purchase the TRD pro valance and just bolt it on? Are there any known fitment issues?

PS, love your build, looks great!

thanks!
 
Installed some LED DRL's last night. Here are a few iPhone pictures of my dirty 4Runner after the install last night.
The lights are from Aiden James Customs

They were very easy to install, and the directions were very good, and precise. Took me about 2.5 hours, but that is because I took my time, and made sure all wiring was zip tied, hidden and looked factory.

The kit that Aiden James gives is AMAZING quality! OEM foglight housing, with LED's already installed, and wired beautifully! VERY quality work, up to my standards, by far! The kit also comes with the correct length of wiring, loomed, and all connections ready to connect, and VERY self explanatory, especially with the very detailed instructions. Trickiest part was separating the relay box bottom from the housing to tap a wire in that box. It was easy, but I wanted to make sure not to break tabs.

Very happy with the kit and customer service. Only downside to ordering was the 7-10 day custom-made-to-order wait time that really took 25 days.... BUT SO WORTH IT!

So sick! Ordering the full exterior Aiden James LED kit for sure. Those DRL are such a great touch.
 
Hood w/ Scoop

I'm curious to know where you got your hood w/ scoop.? Thanks! Mine is an SR5 as well and the look of the scoop makes a big difference to me. Your T4R is sick!
 
This might be the best looking 4Runner I've ever seen, well done! I recently got a 2016 sr5 premium and this is quite the inspiration
 
Sick 4Runner!! I saw this build after I bought my SW SR5 and got excited. Those DRL's are sweet too. Is there any indication on them what kind of LED bulb they use (brand, type etc.)?

No indication, but I believe they are CREE. You can email them, they are very responsive, and stand behind their product!
 
Very nice build my friend. Sorry if it's been asked I've nosed around many of your posts and couldn't find a reference in regards to your Yellow fog lights. Can you tell me more about them?
 
^ never mind :mod:
finally found the thread with the TRD valance fitment for the sr5 :clap2:

Can you post a link? It would require the cutting of the lower bumper in multiple places to make room for the clamps, right?

Was literally going to ask the same question - my understanding is you just used some yellow vinyl/tint and stuck it over the white. Is this true? And if so, what type/shade of tint did you use? It looks great. It's held up since you put it on??

Thank you very much!

Awesome 4Runner. in addition to the above I was wondering:
--How loud are the Nitto's compared to the Duratrac? It's an M/T vs an A/T so I'm assuming they're quite loud (although badass looking)

--What tint tape did you use over the fogs? (asked above as well)
EDIT: was it this Lamin-X? - Toyota 4Runner Round (14- ) Yellow Fog Light Covers

--Can you give a link/info for your window guards? I love the way they flow, very minimalist!
EDIT AGAIN: I found that these look like the AVS, are they the low profile like these? AVS External Mount Low Profile Ventvisors - Best Price & Reviews on AVS Seamless Low Profile Window Deflectors for Cars, Trucks & SUVs

Cheers!
