Couple of progress pics. Got the rough shape of the rear arch on and also started profiling the bonnet. Looking a lot more 4runner ish now for sure. |

Rear Tailgate has started to take shape, this body building lark is alot harder than i thought. Measure it, measure it again, cut it, sand it stick it sand it!! Still getting there slowly. |

Nice work all around! Love the different ways you/people modify the yota to make it something unique and their own. Regardless the craftsmanship of the work I respect that the most. Yours is nicely done! | |

Right Dready's Recipe Time You will need:- 1x Topcad 8 hole Alloy Rim 2) Two Circles the same Diameter of the rim. (Use a hole cutter in a drill for a nice precise circle.) Get an adult to help you if your not very talented! 3) Some paint, and strong glue I have gone with some nice SemiGloss Black, Bright orange and some Silver 4) Glue the Rings on the rim and paint howver you like. 5) Stand back and admire your handwork mean looking Rims for practically no money! 6) Make 3 more otherwise your rig will look funny They turn the very ordinary looking topcad wheel into something alot more trail looking. |

Black with an orange stripy type thing down the side would look wicked cool. Plus it would match mine if I ever finish it . | |

I was toying with gun metal silver too? might look good with the black tubework maybee pick the orange off the rims and use it on the internal rollcage? Something like this sort of mean and purposefull. | |
