After totaling my previous vehicle, a 2000 nissan altima. I stepped up my game and picked up a 2003 Silver V6 SR5 4WD with unpainted cladding and JBL sound. This is a slow but steady build on a college budget.

-So far-

Interior:
-except for infinity reference speakers in my rear doors.
-Grey WeatherTechs: Front and Rear Seats
-Cobra 19DXIV CB Radio and a PA-1 PA Horn
-Some LEDs Swapped
-Pioneer BT/CD/USB Headunit

Exterior:
-Bed lined the second front skid I picked up for it. (Trimmed it after it kept getting caught on the tire at full lock.)
-Old Man Emu 884 Coils on Bilstein 5100s, set at .85.
-Rear Toytec SuperFlex Coils
-ProComp ES9000 extended length shocks.
-Light Racing / SPC adjustable UCA
-New replacement front end links.
-2012 FJ Cruiser Wheels
-Spidertrax Spacers up front.
-275/70/17 Cooper Discoverer AT3 Load Range C
-Diff drop
-deer whistles
-Added factory fogs/ Black Fog Light Mod BFLM
-PA Horn (engine bay)
-3' CB antenna mounted up front.
-2006+ Projector Headlight Swap


Random List of previous parts:
-Lowrange offered 3/2 lift/leveling kit
-Bilstein 4600 Shocks.
-2008 FJ Cruiser Rear Springs.
-1st Gen Taco Wheels.
-2005 Limited T4R Wheels.
-2003 SR5 T4R Wheels.
-Continental HTs.
-Nexen Rodian ATs.
-Bridgestone Dueler APT.
-BFG KM1 MTs.
-LR/SPC UCAs.




It stayed rather stock for a while, as I picked up some parts for it.

Minus the deer whistles, this is what I started my completely healthy 4runner addiction with :biggrin1: :



And here is how it currently sits today (11.04.13)

Lift day:










 
Don't think I've ever seen those older wheels on the 4th gen ! :doh: any plans to maybe plasti them ?

Haha, I really wasn't the biggest fan of the 4th gen wheels that I had. And found a steal on craigslist for the wheels and tires for $50. So I picked them up 20 minutes later lol. And I'm debating to either plasti dip them or do the duplicolor graphite grey color.
 
I would say plasti on one wheel & see how you like it , I do like the gray on yours tho bet it would look good to !
 
Did sell the other wheels ?

Ended up being bent I think and highly corroded on the inner tire wall of the wheel. So I scrapped them. Tried to sell them for a long time, no one bit on them , so I just scrapped them. Only one was really bent, but just wasn't worth the hassle to sell individually and I ran out of room in my garage.
 
tell me when you want to plasti-dip and I can come by and help out.

I know you're going to try and get my to plasti all my unpainted cladding. Lol. :P but alright. I'll definitely be doing my grille , cause yours turned out really sweet. And maybe my center caps on my wheels.
 
FJ skid picked up hella cheap ($25)



OEM turn signal stalk added.



Picked up my polk surround system.



Changed out lower bushings in the tacoma rear shocks.

I don't know if it was already said on here, but what happened to the windshield? Was it cracked, scratched, or what? And to go with the steps, I'd say go with the sport rack or a full length rack. That's just my opinion, though.
