My boys liked the camo, and for $70 for all of them I can't complain.
 
FJ Cruiser Wheels

I got a screamin' deal on some 16" FJ Cruiser wheels. :girl: My buddy down at Discount Tire had a 2010 FJ come in and he pulled all 5 wheels to the side for me. I got all 5 wheels for a total of $267.72... I couldn't believe the deal his boss gave me but I'm certainly not going to complain!

Extremely clean wheels. Only found 1 flaw on them- I'll keep that one for the spare when the time comes to have a tire carrier.

I didn't really know what to expect when I picked them up today, I can honestly say I'm pleasantly surprised with how good they look on my rig. I was thinking about painting my bumpers and wheels black but I'm thinking I'm gonna stick with the chrome now for a while, this looks pretty good in my book!
 
I sanded my air deflector for painting and I bought a 5 spoke wheel for 5 wheel rotation.

Updated - This is my first sand/paint on any vehicle. I used 320 grit to get some scratches out, painted it, 320 sanded once more and re-painted it. The paint I used is Rust-Oleum Flat Black.

I hope you put an aftermarket one on...

Right now I am running naked. Tomorrow I am going to pick up a sheet of 3/16" steel plate. I am tired of monkeying around with the stock skid plate. I will be sure to do a write-up in my build.
 
Took of the skid plate and boy was that thing dirty because I thought it could the source of my leak (link here http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/130692-help-noob-out.html )
All the oild is pretty much gunk and dirt but had some fresh spots in between the layers and my whole under carriage is dry.

In the process I found out that 2 bold are missing (# would be appreciated) and the thread on the bolt or the portion on the support is stripped.

So we shall see what comes of this.
 
Also priced out some new tires for her since I'm going to be planning a couple road trips up North.
 
Hey!!
I FINALLY received notification that my SHOCKWORKS bumper has finally shipped! it's been since Bloody August! sadly, i have not heard anything about my Rear bumper...(from another company) i hope this does not become Ugly.... i'm simply NOT in the Mood...
 
Tried to install my Pioneer deck, turns out the harness I bought does not fit the radio! Ordered a different harness on flea-bay for 6 bucks, should be here Saturday!
