Now the 4Runner looks practically brand new!

The stripes complete the look.

Thanks! I love the graphics too. Can't wait to install the new chrome, soft top, and LED friendly flasher relay tonight.

Then all I'm missing is the Drivers Kick-Panel (still haven't found one) and the two small rear seat trim pieces (in the mail as we speak).

Looks absolutely fantastic. If I may make one suggestion. I'd pull out the roll bar and either powder coat or re paint it.

i'd also add shoulder belts to the roll bar, and ditch the lap belts. a solid safety update.

Soft top rolled up. Does everyone keep the silver bar in the rear rolled up or stored in the cargo area?

Note there is a lighter color code too. Ours is right in the middle - I chose the darker option, but you could go lighter too.
