    Thanks guys; appreciate the compliments!

    Already caught the 'mod bug' and have been ordering parts all day haha...

    So far:

    • OEM skid plate ($178 shipped: trdsparks.com)
    • 13" Euro Antenna ($15.99 shipped: antennax.com)
    • TRD Black Chrome/Stainless Steel License Plate Frame ($13.98 shipped: ebay.com)
    • TRD Front Grille Emblem ($14.99 shipped: ebay.com)

    Probably going with the TRD cat-back exhaust system next!


    Taking off the front mud flaps and chrome step bars, and debadging tomorrow.

    Stock for now.
    Probably the worse "advice" to start out with. Starting with a big lift would look so goofy without getting nicer wheels and bigger tires.
