Wouldn't it be cool if you could get a Toyota logo in Real Life for the front of your truck that looked like it was drawn by a kid with a Crayola Crayon...

That's pure Genious Scuba! Make me one too!

bahah, My patience and handwriting werent on the same level...
lol, After a while Im thinking about getting a spare grille from DC and doing a satoshi on it, Just incase I F up really horribly, i still have my pretty one on my truck.
Thats why it has the TOYOTA, cause if I satoshi'd it would have it.
not the ghey T



Anyway.
I have talked about doing this and that in the past, but its about time I build something, so this will come to life...

Wow scuba I was gone for a few days and you smash this green machine up. Maybe the color Green is just bad luck these days around yotatech.

Well if they total it could I get the taillights i broke one(fricken mailboxes) but really

Do you know about how fast you where going before you hit the brakes and about how fast you where going at impact? just for some reference

thanks

Spearo, There will be a build thread...

haha, 96, I dont think they are going to total it..
And for reference, I was probably going 30 when I slammed the brakes, impacted at around 10ish...
