OK,

I have one final pimp lined up and will be fitted this weekend.

The FIRST person to guess what it is correctly will win a £5 donation to a Charity of their choice :toast:

I sadly have to bar Parts-King from entering as he will be able to make a very educated guess and you are NOT allowed to ask him for info!!

Let the games begin ...... :)

PS - Competition open to entrants until Midnight tonight - winner announced tomorrow :thumbsup:

Performance chip.
Hoovie
Ah - I didn't say I bought the 'pimp' from Kingo, but I may have asked him a leading question which could give it away - such as "Do you sell Mudflap Paint"

So you never know ...... ;)

If no one guesses right before Midnight, then competition will be open until I have the right answer :thumbsup:

Multiple Entries are allowed - Let's say max of three guesses per entrant BUT can't guess them all in a row (am I getting to complicated :rolleyes: )
Hoovie
Hey - one more rule....

Wooden Spoon Prize of £2 to nominated charity goes to whoever comes up with the most insane and outrageous Pimp :lol:

Then I'll add;

90 degree check strap (although you said you didn't need it but when you think about it........................























.............its got to be Run Flat Tyres and ditch the spare.

Sorry for delay - I could get onto forum, but not post replies ??


Right - All suggestions in - and some very good ones :thumbsup:

I especially like the concept of:

Performance Chip .... if anyone can find one for the VVT-i, bring it on :)
Kendal mint cake dispenser ..... add that to next years list ;)
Cheese board and sweet trolley ..... More for your Landrover to provide catering while waiting for recovery truck


But the winner is .... drum roll ......

Or maybe a RAV4 Board game?

Chance cards like ....

"You get a flat tyre and have a Spare" - miss one turn
"You get a flat tyre and have a T180" - miss 8 turns
"Your DMF fails. Go Directly to a Toyota Dealer and throw the dice. Double-six and they will repair FOC as goodwill gesture, otherwise pay banker £1,000 to continue in game"

I can't compete with the excellent Emperor Bling (Hoovie) :toast: and prince of bling Local Hero, but I've added my own bar and grill :eat:

Grill a la Local Hero's and bars supplied by resident parts supremo Kingo (Thanks Kingo, everything arrived on time, in perfect condition :thumbsup:).

(Like, you've never seen a RAV with side bars and shiny grill before :rolleyes:)................

[img]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/shcmpb/bling.jpg[/img]

Did they remove the back door spoiler from the face-lifted 4.2 then Hoovie? One thing maybe to think about before it goes on, is that they did have a tendency to collect rain water and pour it on you when you opened the door. Not sure what you can do about it though, so just go for it :unsure:

Re the Rear Spoiler, I have only really seen them on the 3-Door RAVs in fact (I think both pre and post 2003 4.2 models). I said it before and I'll say it again ... that extra bit of chrome on the Grill really does look nice :thumbsup:
Good news on the rain collection :( - I wonder if I removed a few mil from the tape near each side to make a channel, that that would allow the rain to run off :g: - have to have a think about.

Where was that taken, Flexy? I am guessing North Devon?

(PS - I reckon the Camry is a fine looking motor - never understood why they were not that popular here but #1 car in US)

Have those side bars got plastic end-caps each end? if so, check them regualry that they are secure.
If they are like the 4.2 side bars, the pop-rivet (blind-rivet) tend to break after a while and the caps can then just fall off! I have lost two caps (replaced under warrenty by Mr T), re-riveted all mine on again - and actually done a couple twice.

Yep, spoiler was standard on at least the 4.2 VX. So there was one on my 4.2 VX and hence the one on Chatman's. I wouldn't loose sleep over the rain collection, but I have seen more than one whine about it in the past and it did used to drip on me a bit. So, if there's something easy and subtle you can do to stop (or lessen) it, that might be a little improvement.

Thanks about the grill. Personally, I think they should have chromed all the 4.3 grills, but then what would they give the T180/SR180/XTR owners? :unsure:

I thought about you and the side bar end caps when I was fitting the bars this morning. Yes, they are plastic. However, there are no rivets. Looking at the fitting instructions they were push fit DIY up to a certain production date, then pre-fitted afterwards. These were pre-fitted and are very tightly push fit inside the bar - I can't budge 'em. Anyway, thanks, after your previous comments, I intend to keep an eye on the caps anyway. :thumbsup:

Cheers
