Took Pics Today!!!

Guys/Gals,

Well today makes it a week officially since I got my Highlander! I spent a few hours at the dealer today having running boards and mudguards installed and all I can say is..........WOWZAS!!!!!!!!!

I am SO HAPPY with this car! Haven't given a moments thought to the X3 I traded for it...is that weird?!

Here she is.....







Enjoying this forum a lot too!

Cheers

Congrats! Nice ride... take good care of your "baby"! Kind of reminds me of my Matrix (previous ride). I like black cars. They look so cool!

Thanks! I love black cars too. The X3 was my first black car and while it does show everything and always looks best when clean, it's still my first choice!

Nice ride KCMO, looks great, did you get some all weather mats as we talked about?

The side steps look very nice, really give a finished look.

Good luck and enjoy the new toy.

Thanks! I'd like to get the all weather mats...on my list for sure.

Definitely enjoying it and looking forward to adding a few more accessories

What running boards are those? When you first mentioned wanting some I thought you were talking about the hideous looking ones shown on the accesories page of the Toyota Highlander website. These are much nicer looking and what I would have recommended but was lazy not replying.

I'm not exactly sure what they're called...I want to say 'wedge' something. Saw them on some other Highlanders and knew immediately that I had to have them on mine! I don't like those flat black ones if that's what you're referring to. My dad has them on his '08 4Runner. The ones I have are aluminum and look SO much cooler in my opinion

OK, our family has been fighting with color combo. Blk/Blk is what I like but we are worry about it may be "too dark" from the inside and feels small? but we don't think the grey will hold up well. Our other option is like Dark Red/blk, tan (but we already have a dark red/tan Avalon). Silver/whatever, just too common

I still like the Blk/Blk idea, mind showing some inside pictures? thanks
