    Figured I'd share what was once my 4Runner:). She is a '99 LTD with a 3.4 V6 auto with 203K miles on her. Shelled out $3K for her and worth every penny:D
    She had a little bumper damage to her then:

    after driving around with the smashed bumpers I decided it was time to fix them:).

    Also changed the headlights, taillights and burned out foglights:woot:.

    Then it was time for a little lift:amen:. Got 2in spacers front and rear with new shocks all around.

    Did a little trading and got some Mickey Thompson Bullet holes with 265/70-16 Cooper AT3s.

    At this point I "unofficially" gave it to my dad and brother, who gets his license in August. But I'll keep posting the little things here and there;).
