BTW, I disagree with your sig quote, the forum group I come from, its almost rude to not want to pull things and test stuff out. But I guess our enthusiasm has a different end. We build and spend thousands of dollars to take it out to get scratched banged up and conquer nature.

His quote is from a thread about people touching other people's cars. He's saying if it's not your car, don't touch it. Besides, a good deal (not all) of us are hard parkers. Kinda function over form, considering most of us can barely get up driveways because we're too damn low (unless you're on air). My IS350 is not at status low... but it's still a hard parker/driveway king. I think of my IS350 as the pretty boy at the gym that works out fake muscles but is as weak as a little girly girl.

It comes from not being able to really do too much performance wise. We're just a different group of enthusiast... but still enthusiasts just like ya'll

and LOLOLOL plastiderp.

Lol

Yes, just a different kind of enthusiast! But an enthusiast just the same.

Tacomaworld is a rough crowd, you get flamed pretty hard if you go for looks. Over there if it doesn't perform then no use getting it. They had a dude drop a 4x4 Tacoma and i think that thread is still in a hate rage lol

Awesome stuff. I would say a darker pink for the calipers. Sways and intake are the first mods outside tinting the vehicle. Hope to see a build soon.

uh, yeah, i'm wondering how someone can get fake muscles going to the gym.

haha, everyone should compromise on half lowered trucks. I see those once in a while, they are cool.

Hahaha in the offroading community lowering a 4x4 is sacrilegious. If its a 2wd, slam it!
