What is your idea of OEM+ build?

[cthoma70]

Just looking for what everyone's idea is of an OEM+. Give me ideas for my truck.

Factory 2.5 lift
Method 305 black on black, 17" with +25 offset.
BFG KO3 285/70/R17
Matching window tint on the front with 50% on windshield.
Toyota Tri Fold bed cover.

Looking to add
Black out iForce Max badges
Black grill logo (current have the chrome light up logo)
TRD Skid Plate, thinking black instead on lighter color
Graphene Coating (Adam's Defend)
The Trail hunter/ TRD Pro fog light, want amber when needed and white when not needed.



Maybe adding
Window guards
TRD cold air intake (more for better air for engine than anything else)
Axle Dump exhaust but this isn't anything urgent just don't like the stock exhaust
Rock Sliders, again not anything urgent

To me, OEM+ is keeping everything pretty much factory aesthetically, aside from minor functional mods like window visors and tints. It also includes using OEM part upgrades/replacements on lower trims, such as TRD parts. It starts to cross the line when you get into big lifts and tires, interior nick nacks and color accent pieces like changing out all the knobs and trim to red or adding cup holders and secret compartments everywhere, and loud exhausts. Oh, and excessive lighting. But to each their own, not hating on anyone’s preferences.

I am going for my version of OEM+, this photo is current aside from the WeatherTech window visors:

265/70R18 Toyo AT3 tires
OEM Tri fold tonneau cover
Bed Step (Amazon but same as OEM)
OEM Predator Steps
20% tints on front windows to match rear factory glass
APC Skid plate

Really all else I have in mind if I ever come across a good deal locally is the TRD Upgrade rims (not the TRD Pro rims) and the TRD dual tip exhaust. I’d also like yellow fog lights for the weather here. Cheers

A no-brainer.

You have a cleen ride, but OEM?Something to think about when you say Toyota + is subjective. When you buy from the parts counter? They're buying the same after market parts that you can buy yourself most of the time, ( wheels, tires,🛞, lift, roof tent, steps, see where I'm going).
So basically mine is Toyota + some actual thought, and originality behind the build.
I have a long travel King Suspension lift kit with Total Chaos UCA’S, and Dobinson rear coils, Yokohama Geolandar X-AT tires and Black Rhino wheels that Toyota Purchased and installed, so does that make it OEM ?
IMO I don't feel the need to have the parts department build another truck that looks like all the others on the street.
Built your truck your way and enjoy the journey.

My idea of an OEM+ build is to go almost all OEM accessories with just one or two aftermarket items that still retain a OEM/OEM+ look. Currently I’m 90% there on my truck.
OEM TRD Pro 4Runner headlamps
TRD PRO Wheels with 275/70R18s
OEM Tow hooks and Skid plates
Mishimoto intake
TRD Pro Grille
TRD Performance Exhaust

Coming soon:
TRD Lift kit
ARB Steel rear bumper
OEM Accessory bed rack
