    Bought new in 2003. Real mods didn't start until about 2011. Starting point...
    [​IMG]

    After lift and tires, wanted more power. Tried a K&N but that soon came out.
    [​IMG]
    Did research and wanted a S/C so yanked the CAI. Very happy day when this arrived...

    Stock struts were worn so upgraded to ICON C/O and actually got some more ground clearance.

    Nice taco, good choice on coming back! Are you sure you didn't have any influence in your wife's decision when purchasing the TE? :D

    I really love the TE (gotta have the KDSS) but unfortunately our other ride is a swagger-wagon cause we got too many kids and the third row seats on a T4R LE is a joke. :(

    You forgot the most important shot of the new T4R, a pic of the "party mode" button, it's icing on that rig! :)

    Thanks man. I have to admit I largely influenced the decision on the new rig ;). She loves it more than I do now that she gets to drive it everyday though. The thing is really bad ass. And the only kid we have to haul around is a 15 month old shepherd who finds the back quite comfy compared to back seat of the pontiac she had to squeeze in. And yes haha- the party mode button is perhaps the most important feature on these things.

    Ultra 198 bolt all satin mattle. I tried to get Konig's but they were sold out from the FN site until March. F that noise. I will find another decent wheel. My wife is bad ass, she even wanted black lug nuts so made that happen as well.

    Ah ok, I knew I had seen them before, when I almost bought Crushers. Where'd you order them from?

    Went through discount tires and getting a new set of BFG M/T's as well. The crushers look bad ass too, very similar.

    Got my trail gear sliders painted and one side installed. I HATE the flame plate they welded on and hated how far they stuck out. So we cut them tucked them in a bit.

    My buddy helped me weld them on. The guy is super smart and a beast. Here is is EVO 440 HP at wheels. Check out his website listed on his car.

    Happy with the one side, now just have to find time for the other.
