I have these same flares, On the bed if you remove the stock rock- mud guard's the flares fit much better. Keep up the good work. 👍

[@poqou4708]

Color matched fenders was definitely the right choice no doubt

[@blueyota4x4]

I’m digging the color matched parts! Black is way over-used nowadays. Can’t wait for you to throw a supercharger on it 😉

[@cacog35]

Looks great, Austin. A minor detail, but an amber corner might actually look nice with the green paint, especially if you add a couple amber round offroad lights to the front bumper too. Love the videos, keep it up!

[@ThisOldYota]

The bed turned out well and liking the new grill and headlight bezels.

[@jacquesD4D]

The flares and grille would have looked alot better in black. That green is to much. But she looks real good

[@mitchdaa314]

I feel like the front end would look a lot better if you were to put 35% tint on the blinkers, just enough so it’s still clear enough so people can still see, and it would make it match the headlights too! But keep up the good work, the trucks coming together!!! Can’t wait to see the bumper and new wheels!

[@johnstephen8116]

Looks Great 👍 luv the green tone on tone using minimal black accents will definitely make this truck look good

[@gonzalosanchez6387]

Wasnt too sure on the color matched grill, but after you put it on it looked badass

[@sethrussell5649]

Toyota trucks never go out of style! Looking awesome

[@austinniemela]

Thanks man

[@brianpardee1281]

Some black rino wheels would really compliment the od green military look the truck has going

[@davidbrymer1230]

You gonna PDR the body dents? She deserves the love. Another great build and appreciate your attention to detail that separates you from the other YouFlubers.

[@austinniemela]

Thanks man!!

[@baileyboyens]

Good call on the color match

[@GustavoLopez-px4ok]

I wasn't too sure on that shade of green, but it has grown on me now. I like it alot, you're right it has come together now!

[@austinniemela]

Thanks man!!

[@adrianbooysen219]

Just sad to have seen you change the chrome finish on the corner lights. BUT, you like it, and that's what's important. And it'll grow on me😁

[@tobbavibbe3474]

Was thinking a black bumper would look cool, and 3 seconds later you said just that! 👍👍

[@austinniemela]

Great minds think alike 👍

[@mukeshnaidu5613]

Maybe some aftermarket smoked taillights make look awsome.Overall the truck looks good.

[@austinniemela]

Thanks!!

[@jessielevasseur6713]

Color match was the right way to go on the front end same for the fender flares, looks real nice👌

[@Shop_Simplicity]

The truck is looking great!!! Better with every video, with each add!!

[@justinlawrence4562]

Bro the truck is looking sick. Can't wait to see what you have planned for the bumper and the wheels and tyres. If you looking for cool ideas check out some of the cool overlanding rigs here in South Africa or Australia.

[@mickfreeburn9181]

Dlux looking great Austin great work mate from your Aussie friends

[@paulevanson9947]

17X10 all blacked out??? Looking minty fresh with the matched grille and flares.

[@mukeshnaidu5613]

Headlights looks amazing

[@Dchigi]

Helllll yeahhhh lookin good! Cant wait to see the wheel setup!

[@carlosmartoral6268]

I love the military color scheme. Nice job with the restoration. Any plans on selling the truck?

[@austinniemela]

Yeah when it’s done I’ll sell

[@jimmadonna1436]

That textured finish looks great! Are the fender flairs called Bush wrecker?

[@austinniemela]

The flares are jungle flares

[@jimmadonna1436]

@@austinniemela Thanks for taking the time to answer my question. The truck is coming along nicely.

[@austinniemela]

@@jimmadonna1436 of course! Thank you!

[@gregjohnson4760]

Wow man the build is coming along really well. Lovin what youre doing with it

[@austinniemela]

Thanks man!!

[@dezfan]

Coming together really well! Black bumper and perhaps black wheels?🤔

[@JRBORIQUA7]

I think u should've painted them mat black! Just saying. BTW you're doing a great job with that truck!!

[@thomasmurphy5906]

I like it, looking forward to seeing the bumper and wheels next video ☮️

[@rolanalmodovar]

Can't wait to see the final result 👍

[@brianhind7477]

Looking good flares make it

[@orbeaorca7047]

Great job, wish it was available for sale

[@mikediamond257]

Can’t wait. Looks amazing. You make stuff look easier than what it is lol

[@austinniemela]

Thanks! Videos make everything look easy!

[@justingarnick6021]

What a beautiful truck. It’s my 12yo sons dream truck.

[@dariocorral]

looks cool, I loved the flares, you should make custom bumpers for her

[@austinniemela]

Great idea! Stay tuned 😬

[@dariocorral]

@@austinniemela sure I am, actually yesterday I worked on the suspension of my 91 hilux, my dad (passed away last year) swapped the 4 cil for a non turbo perkins and then for a 3.4L, she needs a lot of work and you motivate me to do it,

[@austinniemela]

@@dariocorral awesome I’m glad I can help!!

[@willb3018]

Looks great with flares and grill in body color. Doing the bumpers in black should really set everything off well.

[@austinniemela]

👍👍

[@RoachWerkzGarage]

I really like the look. I think a 92-95 4runner bumper/valance would look great. Also I noticed you didn't install the corner light groments on the headlight doors where the corner lights meet. Any plans to add that along with grill emblem?

[@moto_kai2688]

Really nice project 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jordanhendrickson1484]

Looks amazing you should put switch back leds in the front signals. Wiper arms and bumpers would look good in black raptor liner. Not sure if I saw the mirrors and handles done either. Just a few ideas.

[@jordanhendrickson1484]

Maybe some upper hood/ piller lights might look sick too.

[@scottyharrington8888]

How bout for your next project I'll just drop off my '94 pickup and you can restore that! Haha love your work man, very thorough and no cutting corners. Keep up the good content!

[@bobevans6590]

I like the front end! Looking sharp!

[@austinniemela]

Thanks!

[@125sm3]

Starting to look wicked.

[@austinniemela]

Thanks!

[@shannonobrien4729]

Green Machine!!!!! 👌

[@adventurousairman]

Lookin great, so does the truck 😉

[@tradeMark182]

Happy holiday AVR ❤💯

[@scottblake6850]

Truck looks awesome? Really like the way you did the color match! Cant wait to see it don't! Black wheels would be cool

[@levyrogers6979]

Great job on your build. Looks killer my man.

[@austinniemela]

Thanks man! 👍👍

[@magicbloom4189]

Nice job. Where did you get the rubber sealants for the overfenders?

[@joecantrell7489]

Looks great! Keep up the good work 👏

[@kelvincabrera4627]

Nice truck good job

[@adamsmiddy]

Looking sick! Where'd you get those Fender Flare rubber liners and clips/screws?

[@markxuereb2392]

I like how it`s coming but if it was me the fender flares and the grill I would have painted then in black and will put some Black wheels too just to look more aggressive keep it up

[@stephenjobe883]

Dude it looks great, you're all over that shizel.
Keep it up 👆 dude!!

[@austinniemela]

Thanks man

[@williscesped]

It's looking good

[@nathankoroush7918]

Nice, this is a good birth day present for me.

[@mikesteele8384]

Its looking real good Austin. Keep up the good work.

[@austinniemela]

Thanks mike!!

[@breeze787]

Hoooooooooooooo Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Awesome! I can't wait for the next video.

[@JEREMY120983]

raptor liner all over! it's a good idea. good job. to be continued...

[@abpsd73]

The toylet is starting to look pretty clean.

[@johngibbons9239]

Its looking killer love the color. Looking forward on seeing the tire and wheel combo with the lift got go big!! Keep up the good work

[@austinniemela]

Thanks man!

[@Νερετνερετ]

Великолепная работа!!!!Молодец!!!

[@jonnusorsa]

Cool Hilux, looks like it's coming together really well! And I just noticed your surname is Finnish.

[@brunostephen6464]

Much love from Kenya....love the Toyota ...looks great

[@austinniemela]

Thank you!!

[@mrm4155]

Looking good, with that gap in the fenders, will water collect and build rust? May not be a bad idea to drill a couple drain holes to ensure water doesn’t sit in there

[@austinniemela]

Naw the flares aren’t sealed on the bottom

[@jennifergreene1983]

Looking great!!!

[@waite24b]

For that gap, it it with a heat gun real careful and push the plastic flare into position... Admittedly I don't know what it would do to the Raptor but it works with painted flares

[@mukeshnaidu5613]

Nice wheels

[@mukeshnaidu5613]

Hey man i nice videos. I used to have a 2000 toyota tacoma pre runner 2wd and was i nice truck. Love the raptor liner look.

[@austinniemela]

Thanks!!

[@bob_frazier]

What's this? Another high production vid with great editing!!! And fun. 👍

[@austinniemela]

Haha thanks man!!

[@45acp]

Looks nice. Are you going to two tone the front emblem ?

[@austinniemela]

Just slapped a chrome one on! Kinda like it

[@bsw1988]

Looking good man!!!

[@jeffcampbell2309]

I really like those headlights. What brand are they? They'd be perfect on my truck.

[@austinniemela]

Thanks! Here’s a link! amzn.to/39bWZGE

[@datkuntryboi3852]

Man you're doing an awesome job.

[@austinniemela]

Thank you!

[@orlandomuniz876]

Truck looking great, i would have taken off the rear guards so the fender flares would sit more flush. I did that to mine.

[@austinniemela]

Do yours cover the mounting holes for the guards?

[@orlandomuniz876]

On the rear holes yes and a little on the front.

[@43srgrock]

Pure flipping awesomeness 💥👊🏼

[@austinniemela]

Thanks man!

[@wojtekwojciechowski5875]

Good job ... greetings from Poland

[@austinniemela]

Thank you!!

[@wademacmillan8650]

LOOKIN good bud

[@jerryduffel3017]

Don't forget to fill the screw holes in the flares

[@gavynlangdon7640]

curious where you get the screws and bolts that you use in your vidoes. For example, I ordered those same headlights but it didn't come with new screws. Unfortunately my OEM ones are completely rusted and stripped out. Thanks!

[@ralphmendoza4563]

Awesome!

[@johngoldman7219]

Does the grille you used fit a 1989 Toyota pickup? The truck looks great.

[@austinniemela]

Yes it does!

[@FlynDirty1]

There was a lot of jibber on painting flares black. I like the color match. Looks good.

[@austinniemela]

I’m with you man! I can’t stand black flares

[@nerdskiii]

You should rust proof those flare holes you drilled!? they will rust up quick with moisture in wheel arches.

[@austinniemela]

Rust proof plastic?

[@nerdskiii]

no in the main body which the flares attach to. #bodyPanels

[@austinniemela]

@@nerdskiii those are all factory holes!

[@nerdskiii]

@@austinniemela Yeh but he had to relocate some new holes (as seen) and new exposed metal will rust if not treated :)

[@austinniemela]

@@nerdskiii I only drilled new holes in the flares man

[@darwinmclovin5090]

Lookin good!

[@NAVYVETBASSKING]

It looks great...

[@writingscripture9467]

Should've done the fender flares in the black

[@TheAlaskaCajun]

Booooooooyyyy you better put some super swamped Boggers on that rig 🤣🤗

[@mjcavender1230]

Nice!

[@Eli6.7]

Another quality video!

[@andrespadilla1336]

Awesome Video, would you happen to know if the grille would work with a 1991 Sr5 4runner?

[@austinniemela]

Yes it will! 1992 4runner they changed the grill

[@redneckrobotiks8727]

What company did you get your headlights from? And do they make then for other Tacoma generations ?

[@austinniemela]

There is a link a few videos back for the headlights! Not sure what all trucks they make them for

[@countrymagic61]

With the plastic chrome, I heard people using oven cleaner to strip the chrome off. It was done on plastic model cars. I have not tried it yet.

[@austinniemela]

I have seen this, have never tried!!

[@gosth81]

Eeey yo, Toyota truck check!

[@Brethonlaw]

Hey buddy, apologies if this has already been asked if you but what colour is that on your pickup??

[@luiguicastellano2041]

Great 👍

[@TheRomalov]

Better without fenders!

[@tylersmith293]

It’s very pretty.
