Custom Look

Right now I have done about everything I can do to my X. However I wanna have more of a custom look, is there anything not to expensive I can do to give my X that custom look. Ex... painting, replacing parts, etc...?

You have done "everything you can"? What's that include? Tell us what you got, and we'll tell you what you need...

Since you have the 4x2 I recommend those chrome wheels that have the separate hubcap piece that spins independant of the wheel.

Yeah... does your truck look like this yet?


or this?

Yeah, that's a "custom" look, just like every other "custom" SUV out there... :rolleyes:

Doesn't look like he's into the bling/rice thing from his site, that's a good thing!

Ah... I just posted those pics to mess with another member...
Cory, judging by your site, your mods include:

K&N offroad Air Charger (intake)
31' BFG A/Ts
1 inch Torsion Crank on front
Brush Gaurd
Nokyia Headlights
Clear Corners
New Front Mud Gaurds
Hella 500's (on brushguard)
Tint
Taillight Gaurds

Right off the top of my head, I would say to add SLR 2" shackles for $50, a couple of XOC stickers ($5 if you can find them), stickers from the manufacturers of your mods (may not sound like it, but they make your truck look tougher )... aftermarket wheels always add to the look... you can pick up a set of black Rockcrawlers or 767s for less than $40 each... just be sure to get the correct backspacing... or you could save up and pick up an ARB winch bumper... about $700 new, or you can search around and probably find a used one for $400 or less... Just a few ideas...

Hey thanks for the ideas, yea I am not into rice haha, and yes I know I have a 4x2 but it still does well... Yea after market rims and shackles are a no haha, and so it the bumper, I am only 17 and my dad has to pass everything, haha i know its dorky but oh well

The chicks really dig it. Honest.

Put a snorkle on it then you can get lots of looks and questions.

I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy...

THanks superjens really funny, damn I put up one post just asking a few questions and I get smart-asses replying, I got 2 serious answers out of 9 replies.... good club...

Gotta keep it entertaining, otherwise you wouldn't come back...

hmm

All da hunneys in my hood is goin' fer dis:

DOnt put that crap on!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It never looks right! I dont recall seeing that in yours Jeff, must be your newest item.

PS: You need stickers from your mods.

Yea thanks I emailed PIAA and Hella, their stickers are on the way. I just put on a XOC sticker.... getting a BF Goodrich... and when I get my exhaust, calmini..

Why the need for stickers? *shrugs*

Wanting to customize your ride is cool, but by putting too many stickers onto it and slapping on every SUV accessory can get a little tacky and cheap-looking (ie, tailight guards+lights+grille+mudflaps+hatch ladder+etc, etc). That is, unless you have a nice layer of mud to prove it.

Save up and get a nice sound system. That way you and your passengers will enjoy riding in it, that's what matters who cares what other people see. The Xterra is fine looking as it is, you'll hear about people here getting compliments while completely stock.

Let's see if I understand. You pay the going price for a product. Then you put a sticker on your vehicle and advertise the manufacturer/product for *free*! What if the product fails - still gonna advertise it?
Sounds like the truck version of the children in their hondumbs.
I thought most/all people would rather avoid advertising/spam/junk mail.

dave and xtoy - Barnum was right

LOL!!

Just kidding......

Cory-

Here's lots of mods:

I'm getting the sliders and tires first.

Don't be an ass. You asked for suggestions on a custom look. I guarantee a wood paneled wagon wheeled Xterra is the most unique look you could ever go for. Try it, see if you look like anybody else on the planet. Those people across the street laughing? They're just nervously hiding their shame for not being first to market with this fantastic mod.

What ever happened to that pic of the wagon wheel X?

It's amazingly on the first page of this thread.
