What have you done to your 5th Gen 4Runner today?

Looks Awesome ^^^^^

 

Lookin good yo! Welcome to the mild mod family

 

Well, im more of a heavy mod but that color you got is awesome I like I like

 

Same with no BMC 2.5” front 2” rear

 

Well, imagine this. It would take longer to take pictures than install the pedal commander but there are plenty of other posts with the same info-it really is that easy. And tint is tint is tint. Besides, I didn’t do the work

 

I figured this was a good place to showcase my 28” Quadratec light bar with incorporated clearance lights in the light bar. Been going strong and looks great, IMHO.


This is what I got accomplished today, finally got myself a Pro roof rack!

 

We don't get these kind of freezing temps around here often...not like this at least
The ice looks kinda cool coming off the runner

 

I’m not looking forward to sun/mon

 

You need a heated garage. It’s bad enough my Pro is covered with road salt from all this snow we been getting all week. But at least it goes in my heated garage. Waiting for this weather to break before I give it a good wash.

 

Yeah sun/Mon gonna be crazy
Been cleaning garage to get frank the prius inside but not too worried about it since I've not been on the roads

 

you Texas folks going to get hammered early next week?

 

Cheese...it already started! Forth worth pile up and Austin pile up too!
Im losing trees left and right

 

Thanks, never had the occasion to try it before. The bumper looks

Thanks. Never had the opportunity to try the heat gun technique. Before and after.

 

Plasti-dipped my roof rails.

 

Looking good as slightly used again, Gr8 job!! Battle scars tell stories...even if they're silly mistakes
Good times

 

Closer to Vadered out...NICE!

 

Thanks! Getting there slowly but surely. Next up is new tires once I can convince the wife.

 

I just bought some tire for my 2020. It was easy to convince my wife. I haven’t told her yet and she hasn’t really noticed. . It’s easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. Plus got a hell of deal on 275/70/17 Wildpeakes $808 with rebates and discounts.

 

Tires are what makes contact with the surface of said terrain. That said I consider them a safety item! Just saying you may have a case...
Also, I am a huge plastidip fan. Congratulations! Was it fun & easy?

I like that it’s a safety item play. We have a Tahoe trip planned here soon so I might make my move then, haha. Yea the plasti dip was super easy. I had never done it before but I just took my time and did enough layers to the point where I thought it was good. Drys super quick also!

 

Hey, that looks really good! Can you explain your technique?

 

Heat and push

 

That sucks. I did a similar thing. Even looking at mirrors and the rear camera it’s hard to see or judge some obstacles. I guess we have to send the wife outside as a spotter.

 

it wasn’t that bad at all. Had to get a plastic pry tool to pop off the end caps and then just a 12mm socket wrench for the 8 bolts that hold down the rails. Did four coats on both the rails and the caps. Probably took 3 hours and that includes drying time in between coats.

 

This stinks... the crashes were terrible...
First snow in Cleveland this year was early and heavy and wet.., with leaves on a lot trees still, we had a lot of damage too. 14"+ of heavy snow on already ice covered branches was terrible.
1st feel for folks injured (or worse in any accidents) and also the associated property damage too. On the good news side.., Nursery's around the country will have a great spring. so we got that going for us.

Stay safe Brother and Sisters in Tx and Ok, looks like a rough couple of days.

 

Heat and push

 

Got the badges for the wife's white 2018 Sr5 Premium. She's not as into upgrading as me but we have two great cars in the driveway!

Dongar Technologies adaptor for dash cam Garmin 46. Dash cam using auto dimming mirror power for clean look[/QUOTE]




How are you liking the Garmin 46? I just ordered the same Dongar adapter and looking at a few options between the Garmin dash cams 46,56,66 series.


Also were you able to fit the plastic piece back on the windshield with the Dongar adapter after the install or did you have to keep it off?
