Re: The Toybox
That is awesome! I picked up my truck Sunday morning before Easter celebrations with the family. Now, I wish I could daily drive it! But with the fuel economy (or lack there of) I can't even try to convince myself that it makes since to park the 40+ mpg Civic.  So, my daughter (4) sat out there in it with me today. She said "Adam did a good job Daddy." And she loved that it "shakes my seat." Now that's my baby girl! Here are some pics of it all. I will cover the boxes with some awesome fabric soon. Thanks again Adam!!!

Re: The Toybox
I also added a sticker to my window. Got it with a shirt & hat from Why-Wear. Awesome guy to do business with. And, with the truck parked in the road today, I came around the corner on my way home from work and just had to take a picture.

Re: The Toybox
I'm glad you like the way it turned out. Did you find that trim ring for the radio yet? You know it's bothering ME knowing it doesnt fit right

Re: The Toybox
Thank you all for the compliments! I have loved the grill since I got it. And Dennis, I will make sure that you have pictures of them covered.
I had to go to a class for work today 60 miles away and wanted to drive the truck just mainly because I love the tunes! But I still couldn't justify using 4 times more gas than my civic. So, I just kept thinking, "dang it, now I need a good stereo in here too." Luckily I wont do that. I only paid $50 for the car...it's not really worth the money & effort.

Re: The Toybox
I like the color combo's your lookind at, similar to the colors I picked out for my truck, but I will be running a different design.
The truck looks sweet with that drop, I wish I could go that low.

Re: The Toybox
Thank you! All in all, I have about $300 in it all including shipping. That is without shocks. It could be done a little cheaper than that, but that is what I have in it.

Re: The Toybox
Thanks Josh! We do it up like that from time to time. He looks really awesome with his Quicksilver hoodie, his little DC shoes, and the 'hawk.
