Has anyone added after market grill guards to your 4runner? If so, which brand did you go with? Are there any difference in the brands? How much was the cost of the grill and the installation? The painted bumper on the 2003 4runner looks good but is rather flimsy. The bumper actually has black styrofoam in it!. One light hit and my front bumper plastic is ripped , while the other car with one of those old chrome bumpers had no damage at all. From the looks of the bumper, I would have to replace the whole bumper to get it fixed. Anyone know how much a full bumper replacement costs? Is the dealer the best person to take it to? I'm considering getting Waag Grill Guard along with rear bumper guard and tail light guards. I was quoted a price of $1000 w/ installation. Is this a reasonable price? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. -km |

The Auto Dimming Mirror w/ built in HomeLink control made by Gentex (with or without compass/thermometer/maplights) is available from a third party vendor: http://www.truckspecialties.com/mitomirror/homelink.htm |

WAAG makes nice stuff and it utilizes the factory holes... I had a Mannik brush guard and it was a PITA to install -- Plus, I lost the use of my front tow hooks on my Grand Cherokee, because you had to use a bracket that mounted where the tow hooks went. WAAG is much more user (and tow hook) friendly. As for pricing, shop around... you could find the parts from various sources online for less and then you just have to pay a local shop the labor to install everything. But call several local shops and see if they can beat the price. $1000 doesn't seem outrageous, but you and a buddy could probably install everything yourselves in a few hours and pocket the CA$H. All the parts you mention are bolt on and don't require drilling -- just lots of patience and a socket wrench or two... |

| I highly recommend the dual exhaust. My Borla system was installed at the port. My SR5 V8 sounds better than any Chevy or Ford and has a few more horsepower than the V8s without duals. I've got the side exits and never have the exhaust smell issue that I had sooo badly in my 2001 Limited Sequoia. My 4Runner blows that vehicle away...check out my pics in www.tundrasolutions.com. | |

Mine was in the high $700s...something like $775.00. Note however, that I did not go out and purchase the exhaust separately from the 4Runner. I found the truck on the lot with it. I've only seen two 4Runners in my area at dealers with this setup and after driving the one I would eventually purchase, I could not let it go. Go to the Borla website. They will price it for you specifically for the 4Runner with the 4.7L V8. Make sure it's the same system as you are getting elsewhere. Obviously, it won't include installation. All I can say is that you won't believe the difference. |

If you need replacement lenses for headlights/tail/brake/fog/ etc, check out this site... I looked, but didn't see anything for the 03 4Runner yet -- but they do for 2002 and older models! http://www.headlightswholesale.com/ |

Not sure if this would qualify as an accessorry, but does anyone know where I could view some pictures of aftermarket leather put in an 03 4Runner? I am currently looking at katzkin because it was recommended by several people. Would like to hear other opinions and comments from people who have had leather added aftermarket. Thanks all! - Nick |

Has anyone added a keypad entry to the 4-Runner door? Can you tell me the manufacturer? Thanks |
