    What’s up guys,

    new to this forum. I’m coming for the 3rd gen models. I just got my lunar rock in November. So far nothing too crazy as I’m still looking to see what I’ll do to it.

    so far, I have

    -TRD intake (not allowed in CA)
    -TRD pro wheels
    -TRD pro grill
    -TRD skid plate
    -Baja fog lights
    -wrapped both valance in black
    -trail edition running boards
    -ceramic coating
    -PPF in the front half of the vehicle
    -15% window tint all around, 40% on the windshield
    -LED bulbs swapped out all around


    What I have planned

    kings 2.5 with reservoirs
    Dobinson rear springs
    Dobinson upper control arms
    Yokohama geolander MT in 295/70/17
    TRD pro roof rack
    Revel exhaust

    New update…

    got my kings done, not too happy with the way the shop had them adjusted them so I’ll have to find a new place to get them corrected. I got some te37 that were on sale, at first the color seemed weird but it grew on me so here is how she’s sitting.

    she’s on Yokohama 295/70/17
    Chopped, trimmed but still gets some rub in reverse

    Is that Thunder Cloud? My dad had an 02 in Thunder Could. It was a beautiful vehicle. Looked as good the day he traded it as the day he bought it.

    I would agree. Although your Volks are amazing, there's something classic about a OEM wheel.
