I don't mind the light bar hidden honestly, I like the look of it. Been thinking about doing different things with that grill, but I really don't mind the look the way it is

I am laughing that I finally broke down and bought LED highbeams, I definitely didn't need them but you're right they really do complete the lighting setup

Snapped a couple random pics, here is the LED high beams acting as DRL's



And I snapped a couple random parking lot pics at work


Truck looking sexy



And driving home last night I finally got to play with my high beams. This shot is with all the LED's on, making fricking daylight in the dark

That's purdy!

You don't think about me in the shower?

I actually was looking at those exact wheels lol

00TL-P3.2

that T4R looks great. Would be a complete waste here in Houston #pavementprincess

I love that prerunner look. I put spacers in my Colorado to shove the wheels out and fake the look. Worked pretty well. Cheap mod.

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

He's definitely running spacers

CCColtsicehockey

Damn that is bright.

Those wheels look like matte black volk te37.

I still think you need one of those roof baskets. Not sure why I like it so much on top of the 4runners.

Maybe down the road, I'm really trying to stop spending money on this truck for a while lol

CCColtsicehockey

Now why would you want to do a silly thing like that

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

Life, Priorities

I've already spent and bought way more than I thought I would for this damn truck in the last couple months, I got lots more to come trust me

CCColtsicehockey

I was just giving you a hard time. I should have used red text.

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

No worries,

I had been using the money from selling parts from my 4th gen but i'm almost out of parts, then I started just buying more and more expensive parts lol. I have plenty more stuff sitting in my garage waiting to go on trust me

CCColtsicehockey

Sounds like a perfect time for a beer and parts install party at Acks house.

bring 2, you'll probably use the first one on your own.

TacoBello

yes, but that's just to fill the inflatable swimming wrestling pool.

Soooo three barrels it is, then!

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

Yes please, I could use an extra set of hands and some company lol

Come on up, I got 2 fridges full of homebrewed beer that need drank also

00TL-P3.2

Do love a good homebrew. Would be a after that drive.

Small update, I swapped out my stock running boards for some N-Fab steps.



Side by side with the new ones



I really like the look of these, I think they give the truck a more aggressive look, they also help the truck look a little taller



All installed, I installed them all the way forward, debating if I want to center them more but the steps line right up with the doors so I'm going to see how I feel after I get used to it.

00TL-P3.2

N-Fabs look great! They make some rock rails with detachable steps for the F150 that look
I wouldn't move them back, personally. When you factor in where the seats are located, having them a bit more forward makes more sense.

Now to kill that silver roof rack.

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

Yeah, the guy I got them from said they were came like that from the factory, I followed the same bolt locations that were used before. Honestly I may try to center them but it would only be an inch. Not sure if I want to crawl back under there for that lol

Already in the works...

brian2

more rugged looking tire on there when these wear out

00TL-P3.2

A mild A/T would look nice. K02s?

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

Since I just put these on and they have a 50K mile warranty don't hold your breath

00TL-P3.2

We're just trying to spend more of your money.
For me, I'd go Michelin LTX over K02, solely because my truck only sees a few miles of gravel a couple times a year & is all stock.

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

I know man, trust me I'm doing a fine job of that myself as well.

CCColtsicehockey

I love the rails. Not a huge fan of the stock rails that come on the 4runner. Almost looks better without the stock ones if not doing upgrades. The N-Fab ones make it look so much better and go with the style you got going.

Couple small updates yesterday in my continuing the subtle black outs on the truck. Installed a smoked black third brake light. Here's a before




And a side by side



And installed



Had to have the gf sit in the truck and push the brake pedal so I could make sure everything works. Looks good!



I also did the amber delete. Before






I'm not entirely happy with how this came out and probably will redo it at some point. I was installing it in direct sunlight and it made the vinyl very difficult to work with. Overall I like the look, just probably will redo it at some point to please my OCD

CCColtsicehockey

Smoked brake light looks good.

No one makes a replacement front reflector yet so you can heat up the headlights, take them apart, and replace it with a clear one?

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

They do make one, I just discovered it today actually. I wasn't really planning on opening the headlights but now I"m tempted...

CCColtsicehockey

T-minus two weeks or less till you order the piece and decide on baking your headlights.......
