I created my own SR5 4x4 "Off-Road"

    Before you say anything, I know that an SR5 Off-Road doesn't actually exist. What I did was take the liberty of adding my favorite components of the Off-Road trim and make it my own on the SR5. I did not have the budget for an OR but wanted some of the pieces from it so I added the things I wanted to create my own special truck.

    What I did:

    - Toyota/Bilstein Off-Road suspension
    - OR wheels/tires
    - TRD Pro grill
    - Removed lower front lip
    - Custom SR5 4x4 decals made by @CBoy808

    It's not a lot as far as modifications go but I didn't have a huge build in mind for this truck anyways, so these small modifications made a big difference to me and I'm very happy with how the truck turned out. To me it looks a lot better than what it came off the truck.

    Sticker on my truck was $30,433. I paid below invoice at less than $29XXX (I work at a local dealership and can't share my exact paid price). Sticker for a similarly equipped OR is $34888 (according to Toyota site). My truck is a 4-cylinder, I kept trying to justify the cost of the 6-cylinder but the price difference was too much for me ($2500).

    Cost of parts:
    Wheels and tires - $650
    TRD Pro grill - $385
    Off Road suspension - $100
    Decals - $30

    Total for truck with parts - $30,XXX (roughly)

    An unusually high amount of pinstriping.
    I like it! It's a good looking truck. The bed decal looks like it came form the factory.

    It's not the greatest truck, it's a 4-cylinder but I made it how I wanted it within my budget. :headbang:

    I completely agree. @CBoy808 knocked it out of the park.

    Like, so many.
    Have you thought about adding the black OR fenders? Those look rad on the Super White.

    I may do that if I can find someone that wants to trade, otherwise I may just get them vinyl wrapped.

    I saw those also. The water spray bottle method worked flawless on mine.

    @GotToyota besides the fender flares, wouldn't it have been much cheaper to get an SR. Mine was 24.4K and I got color matched bumpers. Truck looks sweet by the way, a little bit of all models mixed into it.

    Yeah it was my first time putting on decals this large, he seems to think the bubbles will come out in a few weeks but if not I don't mind getting another set and trying again.

    It probably would've been cheaper but honestly I wanted the digital gauges, couldn't get over the bland SR cluster.

    I dig it, especially those bedside decals. Makes it look like another factory option.
