Old pic but edited recently. I just learned how to use the motion blur command with Photoshop! Don't forget to use Radial blur for the wheels!

Yup, this 4wd sees plenty of snow. Here we are this season at Boreal in February of '06.

This is why the Rav4 kicks butt. Can your car do this? Surely this is the newer model, but the older 2001-2005 models peform the same conversion. Courtesy of karrock of Rav4world who originally found this photo:

Norcal's 1st Rav4 Meet was November 6th, 2005 and it looked something like this:

Crazy looking huh? Rush to page 22 for the updated photos!

QUESTION:
If you're kind enough to share anything about port and polish, please leave me a note in the guestbook. Thanks a bunch!

7/05/04: I purchased an S sports emblem from ebay. It turns out that it's not the real thing. So instead of putting it on the outside of the car like I planned, I stuck it on the interior. Pictures will be posted later.

5/15/04: and I just wanted to thank everyone who voted me to the #1 spot. It took months for my ride just to make it to the first page from being ranked well past #35. It's been great and I'm glad to see peoploe are enjoying the pics! Need help on your mods? Where to buy parts? How to install? My opinions about stuff? Leave me a note in the guestbook and I'll get back to you in due time. Again, thnx very much!

Thanks everyone who made my mods possible, especially referals to installation shops. Cardomain.com's been a great place to keep in touch with fellow Rav4 owners/fans. Glad I could help those few of you who were interested in the gauge light gadget. Hope you're enjoying it! Take care. Drive safely!

------------------------

Thanks for stopping by. Got this ride just over a yr ago. Looking to do a few mods, but not quite sure I want to spend the money just yet. I think the Sporty Face body kits comes next. Anyone know where I can get it cheap?...under $850 preferably. Can't believe the kits for this car is so expensive. Almost wish I had a civic, so I could get a full kit for about $400.

Hit the next page for photos of my installed mods. I'm loving it. Hope you like it too. Enjoy. Again, thanks for visiting and please take a second to vote. I appreciate it.
