    Weird
    Marco replied to my Pm really quick the other day.
    You try calling them? SOmetimes it is easier/faster to just call a shop. I cant wait to see your FJ modded. That Amaesing decal looks great on the Calv Blue.
    Your black out your bumper wings and grill yet?

    that bumper looks awefully familiar...

    haha
    it really is a great bumper, despite all the AP hate on this forum. Luckily I snagged an older 1 pc bumper.

    Haha yeah after seeing my new tires, she kind of wants to to a small lift and bigger tire setup. What would be the cheapest lift? She isn't going to be any off roading at all, unless you count driving 1 mile down a dirt road as off roading :rolleyes:

    yeah i might just call them right now and see what i can get priced out and get done.:cool:
    thank you im excited too! im gonna get around to painting the rear wings but as far as the fronts... they will be gone here soon...:cool: i like the silver grill to be honest. adds good contrast with the blue. but i might be trying out a tacoma trick with the grill in the future :spy:

    i showed my dad the solid axle fj.. he told me to quit being a pussy and save up and do it :eek:

    i think the stock plastic grill insert snaps off, so a satoshi style grill should be fairly easy on the fj.
    I believe Shaddow warrior removed the plascic grill insert to paint his grill. Pics in his build, but i have never looked into it. Satoshi on an FJ may be kinda cool. I know Homer was creepin in here so who knows what he is up to :spy:

    Sweet!

    Do the kings provide the same lift as other C/O's? i thought i had read that they were designed for 2 1/2 of lift (to maintain optimum performance)
