you guys are crazy. body kits? systems? lol. it actually has a little radio in it. came with. could use an upgrade though as it is no good.

battery swap? once she is bigger and can actually drive in and gets to be where the speed isn't quite enough in a few years, im gonna wire up another battery and make it 24 volts. SOMEDAY not in the near future though as she's not quite 18 months yet.

so far the LEDs are not making the battery waste at all either. they actually only pull about 1 amp.

i am currently in the market searching for some simple pink pinstriping or decals for it so she can ride in style but nothing crazy like that escalade lol.

ok so i took some more photos today, mostly just a good few to start photoshopping to get design ideas. but did take a few more with the lights on and so you can see the whole truck.

















thanks for all the positive feedback. ill keep you guys posted as i keep progressing it for her. a few stickers and some pink accent lighting... should be good to go!

i don't know about license plate... but definitely a sticker with her name on the back.

the toyota and fj cannot be debadged :-( the toyota is part of the grill. i'd have to grind it off and repaint the section black. the fj is part of the entire window sticker. it's not separate. i didn't repaint it either, just took all the lame stickers off.
