What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Installed a shiny new trd air filter & cabin air filter. Then finally got around to doing the interior light mod, excluding the maps and dome. I've got a pair of kappas and two horns ready to go in today or tomorrow. Loving having enough time to do something in the 4runner besides drive to work and back.
 
finished plasti-dipping the front end and door handles.

Spent NYE at the Portland Zoo for Zoo lights with the wife, kids and my mom who's still in town. Went to dinner at one of the Mcmenamins. Came home to ONR my truck to inspect the damage because some 4runner hater at the zoo didn't like my current paint job.

Happy New Year!
 
the scratch is a bummer. Just no accounting for some people's lack of respect. Hope everyone enjoyed the zoo lights.

Ouch Bobby! Maybe it was that hipster in the Smart car today who wanted the open parking spot.

On a serious note though, that sucks and I feel for you man. There is no excuse for that kind of evil!

Damn Bobby, that sucks! Hopefully you can find a decent shop to fix that good as new.
 
That sucks...I volunteer my time at the end of the month to help with repairs. I will be in Tacoma for two weeks and have a free weekend! HNY.

I wish for a slow and painful death for anyone that keys someone's car! :yell:

Thanks guys.

It definitively made me mad but the reality is it's just a truck. I won't let these types of things make me feel bad. I don't like to waste my time feeling that way.
[MENTION=66968]Spy45[/MENTION] that's cool! I think Tacoma is about three hours away. Maybe we can meet halfway or so to grab some lunch somewhere?

Hope you have someplace that serves venison...HAHA!:spy:

(I'll let him explain it, Bobby)

Damn dude. After all the fun we had, someone had to be jealous of our meet up. I'm around tomorrow to lend a hand if you need help buffing it out, can meet you somewhere or swing by.
 
Bobby, if you are not going to tackle it yourself, you might try this place in Vancouver Attention 2 Detail NW.

This is the place [MENTION=52619]Whiplash Willy[/MENTION] recommended for Opti-Coating. I guess he is top notch.
 
Clean, mean, offroading machine!

Got x4 new DuraTracs placed on the truck yesterday. Gosh it feels AMAZING having new tires, such a difference, like driving a new truck! I cleaned the heck out of it too. Good feeling to bing in the New Year!

Suburban pinstripes, ugh lame
 
Hardwired my radar below the rearview mirror and attached the poser exhaust tip. :D

Got an appointment tomorrow morning to swap out the OEM 17's and replace them with the 4th Gen 18inch wheel/Michelin tire combo I had recently bought for my 11' Limited.
 
Hitch arrived today!!!

Looks incredible, installing it once I get home!!!

Zoo Lights and Mcmenamins sounds like a good night! That sucks about that scratch.

Since you are in Vancouver, you may want to talk to my detailer to see if there is a way to fix that without having to take it to a body shop. I wouldn't trust anyone else to touch my paint. My detailer gets alot of work from fixing mistakes/damage that body shops do while attempting to do a repair. I will PM you his info.
 
More of what I didn't do in it I guess.....

Rode my bike to work for the first time (my new plan). I figure I'll save the miles on the Runner for something more fun than driving to work. :cool:
