@%1;, nice to see you make one of these. I would like to check your 4Runner out in person as opposed to passing you on the streets if Athens all the time. The new 99 looks great man. I will keep an eye out for it on the streets now.

Thanks I appreciate it. I agree a meet needs to be in the works for sure. Still trying to get this one "finished" up though.It's been a lot of work but I like the new look. Trying to decide weither or not to paint the bumpers to match flares or flares to match body?

Not sure why Toyota added a Dimmer Relay and extra fuses for headlights between the 99/00?

If I remember... they added DRL's in 2000. My buddy has a 99 and doesn't have to do the DRL disable mod. I don't know if that has much to do with it, but perhaps?

Update: Winch & Exhaust installed
