Well, I have been on here for awhile, but haven't posted any pictures of my truck yet, due to not having a digital camera. Well that has changed, I just got a new camera from work for my 15 year service anniversary. So I cleaned up the truck and took it to a local park to take some pictures. They turned out alright, but not great. I guess I have a lot to learn about digital photography.

This is good timing for me because I just finished putting on my 1.5" body lift, and also I just painted all my badges/emblems a metallic bronze color. (I wanted something different that no one else had.) I think the bronze on black color scheme looks really good. Anyway, enjoy the pics:

Looks Great.
The Bronze is def a different touch, nice, but different.

I am jealous of all your Highlander/Sports Edition Owners...
Must be hood scoop envy lol!

Looks good. I dare you to paint your wheels bronze. That would look cool

Thanks for the compliments.

No, it definitely gets dirty. It sees plenty of trails and sand dunes.

I actually spent a lot of time considering that, but I wanted to stick with the blacked-out look. What I will probably do is get some black 16x8 aluminum wheels, like the ProComp 8179's:

Then I will put a simulated beadlock ring on them and paint the rings bronze. How do you think that will look?

Nice looking rig and I dig the bronze touches! Now that you've got her all cleaned up, go get some mud on her!

good lookin ride

I like your taste in new rims- those 8179s would look great on your ride-not sure about in bronze-but to each his own....

Damn thats a good looking rig. How can I go about getting a set of the 4x4 Sport Edition Emblems of the doors? I like those...

Thanks, You have to design and build the emblems from scratch. That's what I did.
