[Legends15Limited]

Anyone in the OC pearl white will like to take your hood with scoop.

Reviving an old thread. Just confirming the piece labeled 25 isn’t necessary. Looks like a washer of sorts?

I always liked the look of the hood scoops. Never thought about glare..

 

[EddieV4runnin]

Fixed the dreaded glare, it’s a matte black wrap. Magnetic Grey 4Runners hide black so well, you can’t tell it’s wrapped unless you’re standing next to it.

There are times when it feels equivalent to a welding arc.

Funny. It's so bright I agree! Toyota couldn't put LEDs in the headlights so they found a way to put LEDS on the scoop somehow. Resourceful.

Might as well post my experience.

AZ desert dweller here. Had my truck over a year. I'm also 6'5 which I think plays into this.

I would routinely get blasted by the glare off my off my hood. It's super bad when going over steep obstacles and often blinded me on the highway. So bad that view out the windshield would be completely obstructed. I also get nasty glare off my dash.

"BuT wEAr PolArIzED gLasSeS bRO!", I have ultra dark mirrored sunglasses and trust me it helps but definitely not enough for the az sun.

I had some minor safety concerns with driving a vehicle forward without being able to see. I bedlined my hood and added a dash mat. No worries now.

Is that a piece of vinyl you cut to size, or pre-made shape/size you found somewhere? Looks great!

I bought this one.

Toyota 4Runner Off Road Trail TRD Pro Hood Scoop Decal USA SELLER AntiGlare | eBay

Here are shots of what it looks like from inside and from above on my white 4Runner. There wasn't much sunshine to cause glare last weekend, but you can see how it would solve the problem.

^^ That's really good looking.

It’s pre-made, I got installed by the same person that sells them here in SoCal. It’s $60 on his site, it should be at the bottom of the page.

Clear nano-ceramic tint on the windshield has helped a little. I keep telling myself that anyway heh.

I can also agree with this. Takes the edge off the glare, doesn’t bother at all. My taco’s glare was brutal, which is why I got the tint on the front window of the 4R ASAP.

I live in Vegas, so no lack of bright ass sun, and I've never experienced the glare issue. My T4R is white too.

I work in Henderson and live in Enterprise. It can get pretty bad in the evenings driving west on 215.

I wonder if color matters. My taco was silver and the glare was awful. My 4R is black and the glare was never as bad

I thought the same thing too living in Florida...at first... Trust me you'll know when it happens! The angle of the sun and the scoop will line up perfectly and boil your retinas.

Looks like toyota is not selling these hoods currently?

The parts list from a few pages back is for 2012-2015 4Runners. And that part number given for the hood says "no longer for sale"

 

[mattb124]

Yes, a worthless and annoying "feature".

Still better than your post.
