Spring 4runner shine ! POST PICS

PLEASE POST YOUR "SPRING CLEANED" 4RUNNERS !!!

Here are a few pictures after a wax job today. I will hopefully have my LC wheels in a few days... I am going to mount BFG All Terrian 285/75/16's on them. I couldn't pass up the deal. ONLY $630.00 for the wheels AND brand new tires, mounted and balanced too !!! I am excited !
Price breakdown
$230.00 for the wheels (shipping included)
$400.00 for (4) brand new BFG's !

Pre LC Wheels.... Clean.



The wheels are pretty much in this condition...alittle elbow grease should clean them up to par.



Some more clean shots. Sorry bad picture...

I forgot a rear shot... I think I am going to relocate the spare tire into the rear cargo area with a homemade mount with a small shelf. I hate the spare tire how it hangs down! I would love a rear carrier but don't have the $$$ to do it.

It snowed and then rained like crazy today, so my truck is clean for the first time in about six weeks. Does that count?

I already have to wash it again. Rained a few hours after I washed it, then I had to go drive it down my gravel/dirt/mud driveway and it looks like ass now.

I waxed a couple of scratches out with rubbing compound, but i have yet to do the whole thing. I try to do it every couple of months, because when you have an electric buffer, it comes out amazing and it doest take long at all!

This is it for the spring
-engine cleaned
-underbody cleaned
-scratches out
-interior detailed
-oil change
-tire balance

I'm good to go till summer...and after some wheeling!

Its a few years old, pre-sliders, pre-leaf swap, pre-carnage, pre-selling... but hey I still like to show my runner off :-)

You got a scoop. I like your hole front with the color matched grill and satoshi.
What you made you to get ride of the push bar. Seeing yours made up my mind on getting rid of mine and changing up the whole front!

Actually took off the bar so that it would be easier for the paint guys to do their thing. I actually miss the look of the bar and lights and will probably put it back down the road. What I miss is not the bar so much but the look and function of the driving lights. I thought about punching the lights into my stock bumper but the Jaos lights are really thick (about 3 inches) so I don't think they would hold well.

If you do take off your bar, I would suggest the Performance Products front spoiler. It looks pretty good...
