    Should be right around $3k if you do some shopping and aren’t hung up on the “cool” brands.

    The 80's called and they want their hookers and blow back. It's all about craft meth these days. I hear there is some killer blue stuff coming out of Albuquerque.

    I tried the most expensive tint shop with the best ceramic tint, and I was charged about $500 and that was only 1 hour of labor, $800 must be dealership pricing

    I never understood the window tint thing. I've never felt like I needed tint and from my experience, it just ends up looking like shit in 10 years or whatever. Am i missing out on something? What's up with tint-gang?

    I got my '22 about a month ago, and 2 weeks into ownership and at a few hundred miles, I did these upgrades:

    - 4Runner Sema TRD wheels with BFG Trail Terrains 265/70/17 - $1800
    - Fox 2.0 front coilover suspension with Fox 2.0 rear reservoir shocks - $2100
    - Powerstop brake rotors with Hawk pads $300
    - OEM TRD trail grill - $220
    - OEM Aluminum running boards - $800
    - Rough Country trifold hard tonneau cover - $700

    I've always focused on tires, brakes, and suspension first.
