newbie to pictures-rear wing painted

This is the simplest paint mod I could think of-but I had not yet seen it on any 3rd gens. I do admire those of you that have the 4th gen wing on the back of a 3rd gen-but that was pricey for me.

I have never posted a picture to a forum before -please do not be flaming me if it does not show up. Trying to follow the instructions from the help page...I will try to edit if it does not work out. I previewed my post-I think it is there...

My 15 year old son did the paint work for me with his high school auto body class. It's white paint code 056.

I originally had no wing-rear window deflector- and the truck always looked kind of naked out back-The install and parts were done at IRBIS OFF ROAD of Aurora CO. The template for the mounting points on the body were provided by TRD (Toyota) of Dallas.

I definetly like it and you've inspired me to clean mine up and do a repaint but I'm going to go with a semi-gloss black since Jade might not look right but the white really works well on your's.

Looks good.

My 4runner didn't come with the wing.

My first 4runner didn't so i added one on for $94 brand new. I think it was well worth it.

thanks for the comments guys! Psalm I had never seen one like yours. Very original and distinctive.

Initially my idea was to do some custom script work on the wing-my buddy is stationed in Iraq and I like to salute the troops.

Luckily though he will be back within one month (knock on wood repeatedly).

Thanks to you all that talked me through "how to post a picture"

Next up-an avatar!

Thanks. Mine isn't painted. I had a local vinyl/sign shop do it for me.
