Really made my Truck go faster today :)

Hey Guys, I just wanted to share my latest mod with ya.... It makes it go MUCH faster







Ha Ha I know its no performance mod, but I think the TRD decals really add to the look of my truck.

What do you guys think?

Yours next Joey

A big thank you to Corey for hosting my pictures

Cheers

Luke

PS I have managed to get a great deal on a set of 32 11.50 x 15 BF Goodrich AT's so Im gonna go with those instead of the Falkens. Thanks to everyone who replied to my earlier posting on Tires, Hopefully I shall have them next week and will post pictures as soon as I've got them fitted

Thumbs up

Awesome Luke...looks like it always belonged there. The UK Runners have a unique look from behind. Kool. Also, are those stock fender blinkers and front clear corners? Sweet...nice pic. I look that happy when I do something new to my truck.

I know the feeling'. Even when I did the fuse box add on the other day, it's a nice feelin' to just stand back and look at your work and say "hey, I did this."

But now I am in dire need of a new fix. It's overcast here, the sun is gone for a few days, and I want to do the other fuse box for the battery.
My luck it will start to down pour as soon as the tools come out.

Now I know what a drug user feels like when they can't get their fix
I really need to order that "on board shower it" and install it.

Damn, there is no cure for mod fever other than going out and getting a new fix every so often.

Hey, can any Photoshopper's out there take a smile and make an arm on it with a needle and syringe and say "Mod" on the side of the syringe?
Now that would be boss.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I really am pleased with this mod, it was easy to install and really makes the back of my truck look real good. Also I dont think that theres anyone else round here with a set of these on their truck, so Im sure I'll get the occasional comment at stop lights etc.

Hey Buttnut they are all factory fitted lights on my truck which I kinda like and I have been recently looking at getting some clear front bumper indicator lenses too which would complete the "clear" front look of my truck.

HBoss, I know what you mean about the rear of my truck but its hard to see from the picture that the front is in kind of a "dip" in the ground, which makes it look like the rear is right up in the air. Its not normally like this as I carry alot of kit in the back and it always sits level then.

I gotta hand it to the guy I brought my springs from though LA Suparux they were made in Belgium and he promised me they were of the highest quality. At the time I couldnt get Downeys shipped to the UK and this was my next best option. They are 2" longer and 20% uprated (heavy duty). They cost me a tonne of money, but the guy was right they haven't sagged a bit.

Luke,

Bloody nice mate. I like it. By the way Luke, what is that single red light on your tail gate? I'm guessing a rear fog used in EU.

Thanks
Pete

Peter your exactly right on the fog light. We all have em here. I had to have a light conversion done to mine. They mounted the red light to the bottom of my bumper. I only put it on for the yearly inspection because I already tore one off going off a bank. It hangs down about 4 inches below the bumper and looks absolutely retarded. I had to mod my blinkers and whack out my headlights to point left instead of right too.
