    Blacked out badges, window deflectors, smoked 3rd brake light. I have a Borla muffler on order as well as some color matched engine cover stickers. I'll be painting the stock wheels soon as well. Falken tires in the fall as well.
    Yes quite a few.

    Isn't the stock intake already a CAI? If it's like the Taco, air comes in from the fender.

    It is however it does not flow as well as the TRD Intake. The TRD intake did make a slight difference. Nothing crazy but you shouldn't expect anything crazy.

    Yes it is Jason, I just added Too it with the Accelerator Horn and The Filter.
    I notice a difference in acceleration when taking off from a stop. I enjoy experimenting with factory engineered Parts.

    The way I spend my Doe is no concern of yours. ​

    Finally painted the end caps on the roof rack matte black! So much better. Thank you Krylon Fusion!

    Removed them. Only one gave me some trouble. The trick is to find the right angle and pull ever so gently. The tabs came off fairly easy. Went on even easier. All in all it was probably a 30 min project (not including dry time). I let mine sit for 24 hrs before putting back on. So much better than the silver! Will see how the Krylon holds up.

    I wonder how they determine which colors to use on which vehicles. My silver SR5 came with black end caps... Though id rather the entire thing was black... Just not enough to paint or wrap it.

    Ordering falken wildpeak 285s on Thursday and my lift install and alignment is on Friday...After that the last thing left to "finish" my simple build is either doing the roof rack delete mod, or adding a couple crossbars... Still really undecided on which to do.

    I wont really ever be throwing anything on top of my 4runner, i will just use a trailer when needed... But also not sure if i will think the 4runner looks right without the factory bars on it. And with the factory bars, i think it needs crossbars to at least look functional.

    I hear ya! I would love to have the rails all black, but kind of like the silver contrast.

    A regular 4 post lift would be difficult LOL. But this is made for lifts and tires. There's cross section jacks between the ramps. Makes it easy. I wouldn't want to use this for normal work... But for lifts and tires it's the ticket. There's a 2 post lift right beside me... But I prefer this setup.

    We're about done now. Then I'll drive it over to the alignment shop.

    All done. Aligned up within specs no problem. Took about an hour and a half to install the lift and about 20-30 minutes to align.

    Stopped and got some BBQ after alignment, took a picture there and the 4R looked a little high in the front... So I went to my garage, where the ground is perfectly level, and did some very scientific measuring... I concluded it's level enough for me. The level showed good no matter where I put it and my eyes agreed... If it's not perfectly level, it's so close I can't notice it with my eyes. I'm happy. There's a little bit of driver's side lean... But I didn't notice it until I was really looking for it.

    Eibach pro kit, 2.75” front and 1" rear, gets the nod from me. Drivesa and looks good.

    Tires ordered. Should be here next week and after installed I'll take some nicer pictures.
