I Got the Scoop (*PICS*)

Well a few weeks ago I was on my way to class and realized that there was a big dent in the top of my hood. Upon further inspection it looked as if something had been thrown or had fallen on it. Well instead of paying almost $500 to get it fixed I just threw in some extra cash and bought a scooped hood. I bought the hood from a friend of mine at a local dealer who gave it to me at cost (about $80 of savings) and then ordered the parts tot he inside of the scoop from 1stToyotaParts.com. Their prices were drastically cheaper than every where else I had looked and their shipping was very reasonable. Anyway here are the pics.





I also haven't posted a pic with my new wheels yet so here they are. They are just the 5 spoke limited wheels, but I think they look great.

I was asking Jonathan about it a year or so ago. He said that they don't make them anymore.

Nice job mounting the lights behind your grill....it looks really tough. It's funny how a new grill and wheels can make a 96 4Runner look like a 2002. I never would have guessed it was a 96 if I hadn't seen your sig line.

That does look great! I see you painted your bumpers to match. Good details. Devilish.

Thanks for all the compliments gys, it means a lot. As for the grill guard, it is made by Waag, however, as far as I know they discontinued the one that I have. You can buy mine for the special price of $1000 and I'll go get me an ARB Sahara bar.

Welcome to the "scoopside",now you'll get the envious looks from the plain hooded Runner owners not that your Runner already didn't garner the looks. Nice job.

Can we get some more pics of the grill and a description of how you did it?
That grill looks super tight.
I'm thinking of adding some Hella's or similar to my '02 and I like that that grill mod would keep them from getting stolen.

Check out my Webshots account in my sig line for more pics of the grill. Basically if you do a search for the "Satoshi Grill mod" you will find what you are looking for as far as making the grill. I made mine before I had heard of the Satoshi Grill, but I basically did the same procedures.
