Lookin good! I'm not a fan of gold but yours is my favorite. I REALLY like the black two tone you went with on the bottom, nice touch. What are the wheel specs?

Thanks man.....I wasnt to fond of the color at first put it has started to grow on me...wanted to mix it up by adding the black on rocker panels and lower piece of rear bumper...

Wheel specs:

18x8.5 +25 (w/ 10mm spacer making it +15) running 245/35/18

18x10 +25 running 275/35/18

I want to try and get a little more pull out of the rear....i'd like to fit a 295 in back

I like the Gold a lot. Its up there in my favorites with Pearl and with Blue. Lexus Rosewood is nice too but not offered as an option on our cars.

Nice tread man. When monies come I'll do bigger wheels to fit 265 or bigger out back.

What is that TRD module under your hood next to the air intake for??

Same I run around with out a safety sticker registration sticker or license plates.

Cars in My name. Cars insured. Who cares that I don't have stickers? Been pulled over once and the cop was like man just get some plates it makes us think that its stolen.

Its the Ignitor I just dressed it up with a TRD aluminum plate..... I originally intended to put it in place of the Heater Control Valve on Firewall but it was a little to big for there
