Default Project FJ Cruiser

i was set on getting my little girl a power wheels for Christmas. none of the barbie stuff did it for me so i ended up going with this for her.



it was the coolest looking of the bunch. let the modding begin...

the headlights, tails, and parking lights have all been removed tonight. i've determined they need actual light for starters.

lol she is only 16 months old so the more power is definitely not necessary yet. i still have it locked in low speed because she is definitely not ready for the higher gear yet.

for now, just appearance mods. like lights and all the stickers coming off. gonna give her a custom sticker job, something pink. you know how that goes.

Thats awesome, shes working on the FJ! Makes me want kids, lol. Little boys are menacing, but little girls always look cute. We'll see what I wind up with for a first kid, haha

Good luck modding the FJ and keep us posted, and my advice when she ups the speed and then wants more, do the 24v mod. Look it up on Youtube. :D

sweet. reminds me of the power wheels ATV my dad got me when I was like 4 years old. I remeber he did put some real motorcycle parts on it. Like Headlights and Tail lights. and swapped out the electric motor. and put real brakes on it. Damn now that I think about. He might have just gotten me a real mini ATV . lol
