If you get replacement axles make sure to get the toyota ones the aftermarkets are not as good quality its been discussed on IH8mud quite a bit.
Nice Bling!! need more pics of them installed

I'm debating doing the boot kit or entire axle, but no stealership. I do everything myself (If you want it done right...) Thanks for the tip about factory axles though.

Who told you that? I would get a second opinion. I bought this cable from ebay here, threw away the virus infested CD that came with it, Googled for and installed the Xhorse drivers and Techstream software, and programmed the cut key I bought. Techstream is the same software that your local Toyota/Lexus/Scion stealership uses, so now I can program keys, set up custom options, and do factory level diagnostics. All for under $30. So far it has worked fine on a Highlander, several Prius, and my GX.

I disagree and would go aftermarket. Lifetime warranty through Carquest, if the boot leaks again, pull the axle and get a new one.

ScatAdams: Those TRDs look SWEET!!!
BlackCat: I think I'm just going to do the boot kit, because it is just the inner leaking right now.

I've been doing 3M brushed aluminum wrap on all the wood interior pieces, replaced my shift **** with a sport model black one, and installed a Prado 120 black piano wood steering wheel.

That looks great! Man I wish ours was the grey interior...any thoughts on a wrap finish that would look good in a tan interior?

There's a trillion brazillion different kinds, just have to look at the 3M products and see if you can find one you like. Then you need to take into consideration that it might not match your steering wheel.

I only have 1 pic of the many things I had done today, but I am super excited they were done. Had the 90K mile service done finally, plus water pump, also had the rear suspension air bags replaced, as well as new tires (Michelin Defender LTX M/S). I feel so relieved to finally get all that done and tomorrow I am having my rear brakes done as well to complete my "car weekend", lol. I've noticed the ride has drastically changed with the new suspension components. My GX drives more like a truck now, instead of a floaty/bouncy car, lol. I think the airbags were bad since I got it, I just did not know any different. The new tires are also a little louder than my previous ones. That will take some getting used to as well.
Here's a pic of the new tires:
