What did you do with your 4runner today?

[Troymclure]

Cut my fenders. Ive seen a lot of tacoma guys do it, but never a 4runner. Really happy with the look.
Tape to mark line to cut:

Metal cut:

All done!:

Yeah it does, It looks like it was made to complement each other/their angles.

That looks great! I need to replace my clips anyway so this is on the list. I got the idea from a similar post on Tacomaworld about trimming fenders.

Thanks, I used a small air saw from harbor freight. It gave great control and cut through the metal and plastic like butter.

Thanks, Im really happy with it! Plenty of room for 35's if I choose now too

Yeah I broke every single clip when pulling off. Replaced them with some nylon nuts that fit in the flare and screwed it back in.

Turned out great. Happysmiley did it awhile back. By far my favorite 4th gen of all time.

thats what gave me the inspiration to do it. Saw it in Pismo at Huckfest and drooled awhile.

Tried to flex it out while I had my sway bars off, but I ran out of ramp... :/

Haha thanks man! I thought it was fun... I'm just sad it fades so much. I have to redo it every few months. :/

I used it for my shifter gate and now it's just dusty and depressing.

I think it's more dirt than fading. And derp is hard to clean

I dont think exhaust manifold or heat shields. It doesnt increase in rate upon acceleration?

Did you figure out what this ticking is?

 

[norcal*PWRstroke]

programed new key fobs and a transponder key
Got the key fob (HYQ12BAN) for 19.99 off ebay looks almost new!
key was 8.00
had to clear all the FOB codes because it was maxed out at four codes programed and we only got 1 with the car, cleared them and reprogrammed the original and the one off ebay.
they both work perfect!

spidertrax spacers coming
going to plasti dip the wheels over thanksgiving break. First matte black then cover with silver metalizer plasti dip for the gunmetal look.

Will be getting a radflo or icon coilover kit from metal tech black friday sale.

Go icon for sure!

 

[zopperman]

Go icon for sure!

I'm having this debate right now - Icon extended travel doesn't give any lift so I'd have to get all my lift from preload (3" max)... worried it'll be a really stiff ride...

but radflo has a 2.5" lift with a ton of adjustability...
