A bit closer to the ground
This will probably be a bit slow of a build as my (new to me) 2014 FR-S Monogram is a daily driver and I've got a project '75 FJ40 but figured I'd get it started with some pics! First plans are to upgrade bulbs to LED, install a back up camera, and replace the Scion badges with something a bit more evil

The FR-S is a replacement for my '97 4Runner Expo Rig that is showing it's age and not a great DD. Breaks my heart to get rid of it but all good things must come to an end...so you start new ones!

That lil FJ is nice as hell! I love the old ones. I like the new ones with the exception of no back roll down windows.

I'm in the middle of building a NV4500/Toyota split T-case to drop in for the drive train so once that's done I'll watch for a good donor for the engine |

Been awhile...I've added moroimoto fogs, converted the tail lights to have 4 backup/turn in the round LED, DRL on at night- beat sonic, tow package and tinted the windows with 20%.
Started on a some custom badges - just some 3D printed prototypes for now but plan to move to some anodized aluminum badges soon. |
