finally got a job so some things i started with
fitted life sticker!

fog lights with yellow overlay and weathertech window visors
blacked out front toyo emblem
stubby antenna
Posted Image

picture next to my bro's x with
03-04 tail lights with spray tint. might just put on the red overlay i bought awhile ago but the tint is still holding up
Posted Image

side skirts and i guess i installed my front lip too?

Posted Image


and some recent pictures i took from about last week of how she sits now (can anyone guess where?)
cmod grill also installed

Posted Image

still deciding on what coilover setup i want and/or springs.
haven't had time to black out my headlights or install my rear lip kip (which i'm having trouble to put on).
tint is a maybe that isn't a big thing to me.
and rim's and wheels is something that is going to take me forever to decide as i feel like i have grown attached to my donuts.

let me know what you guys think. + - feedback/advice. thanks guys.

:angry: I hate you for having that front lip. I chased that part for the longest time, finally when I tracked it down I couldn't afford it. :cray:

Anyhow, your trix is coming along nicely. What's next? Hopefully wheels and a drop are right around the corner.

Btw, looks like you're at the Hoover Dam.

Haha. Yeah mad thanks to dnm. I'm still deciding which set of coils or springs to get. Don't know much about them so I'm still learning about them. Wheels will probably be last because I think that would take me the longest to decide.

Yup. Hoover dam. Didn't see megatron though.

nice! yeah the donuts arent hard to get attached to... thats how I ride in winter

if you can find a good deal on coilcovers go for it at least you'll be able to adjust the height to your liking

thanks. i got them used, $20 for a pair i found on craigslist but one of them had a hole in it so i just bought another used one on ebay. i don't really see any need to buy them new unless you want them spotless upon buying them, ahah.

Nice to see all that skirt action going on after all the work that went into boxing those SOBs. :)

Looks much nicer. Definitely needs the drop you speak of.

I'd also recommend blacking out the blue door pillars like on XR(S) models.
