So I got my 18 4Runner SR5 premium (needed the 7 seats with 4 kids)

My wish list is
icon suspension lift (stage 2 maybe 3 later)
Gobi stealth rack
Method NV matte
BFG KO2s
C4 Fab slimline bumper and winch,
Tepui rooftop tent (idk which one and it’s $$$$$)

What about you guys where are you trying to do.

Congrats on your new 4runner. I'm jealous. I'm researching mine and buying early next year. I have a wish list as well but I think my first mod will be HID headlights. Do them in the driveway, relatively inexpensive, makes a world of difference in all conditions.

I’ve just picked up my 2018 LE a little over a week ago.

I’m enjoying seeing what others have done with their rigs, but I don’t have much of a plan for mine yet. Picked up a Carista this week in order to make some customizations, but then we’ll go from there.

I’ve seen some of the other LE owners black out some/all of the chrome and that has a nice look to it. I’ve got to be careful with lift heights if I go that way, since my garage isn’t very truck friendly in that regard.
 
Congrats on your new 4Runner!

The first mod I'm going to do to my 3rd gen is..
3" toytech
1" BL
And some Nittos M/T

I'll post some pics of before and after ��

Installled a $17 (bought on Amazon) neoprene cover on the center console. It fit like a glove.
My dog likes to put her front paws on it. I was afraid she'd damage it.
 
I’ve got a set of sliders on order...4 weeks down, 8 more to go. That’s the first mod. First thing I did was throw a bubba rope in the storage area though.
 
Congrats on the new rig. I also have a 2018 - and like most on here, can't leave well enough alone. A set of 5100's and some rear spacers are first up for me.

Have fun with the new toy !

Just got my 18 Runner Trd...Money pit for sure :ybrick:
 
First Mod

First mod was the diff breather on my 1 week old TRDOP with KDSS. Next will be the e locker relocation. Probably not necessary as I understand the vacuum should be relieved at the diff now, so the one way elocker breather shouldn’t cause a water issue, but hey, it’s an excuse to crawl under the truck.

Next purchase will likely be an SSO rack. I like the front runner, but I have a philosophy in life that the less holes a car has, the better.

After that, likely a hard shell RTT. I want something easily deployed/packed. I’m thinking JB Explorer.

My next fab will be a removable modular expandable storage system. Just took the dimensions down. I purchased the cargo tray so I would have the fold flat second row, which should allow for an easy enough build.
 
Congratulations on your purchase.
I miss my back row seating.
Now own a 2017 TRD off-road :-)
First mod was nfab nerf bars my 6 year old for got that the 2017 didn’t have steps and fell out. Not injured just scared him .
Second mod Slee off road compressor bracket.
ARD twin compressor is being shipped:-)
Day star levelers and bilstines sitting behind the couch. To lazy to in stall and to cheap to pay some one else to do it:-)
 
Just picked up a brand new 2018 TRD Off-road Premium last Tuesday.

Well I guess you could consider weathertech floor mats.

Attempted to install my Xenon Depot H11 HID kit and got nearly done and found out the bulb I was putting in the passenger side was moving around a bit. Come to find out the spot welds on the little tabs had come loose. Could have been like that from the get go or I could have tapped it against something while connecting all the wires and pushing the grommet through the hole I drilled in the dust cover. The driver side was super fast and took probably 5 minutes. The passenger side took forever trying to get into the housing and was just generally a pain in the ass. I’ve already sent Xenon Depot an email and just waiting to hear back from them.

This sounds close to my dream build as well! I just picked up an '18 Limited over the weekend.
 
new guy here

I purchased a 4th gen shadow mica 4runner with about 150k. So far I've been getting some general maintenance up to date on it. Replaced a wheel bearing on the passenger side. Im gonna swap out the CV on the drivers side in a day or two. I really like doing the work my self. My first mod will either be ditch lights or a Dobinson Lift kit. Depends on which carrier gets here first today; fedex or UPS.
