Last minute gift ideas for the FJ . . . (or crap found on ebay)











It's Saturday morning, snowing outside, Susinator is still in sleep mode, and I have the internet and ebay at my disposal. And this is the kind of crap I found. Originally I was just going to go through 10 pages, but this stuff was too good to stop after 10 pages of searching. So 34 pages later, this is the best I found.
1. Hood scoop. Functional . . . nope. But how can you go wrong with the double scoop look?
2. Laptop mount. We have the macbook now so obviously I need to bring it in the FJ so I can mobile blog (could you imagine how dumb the posts would be then. . . brutal).
3. Chrome hood thing. Yeah, because I want people to thing I have a Hummer. And like the hood scoop, installation is easy with double stick tape.
4. Rear roof ladder. Oddly enough, the FJ pictured doesn't have a roof rack. So why do you need a ladder?
5. Seat covers. How classy are these? And the colors are great!!1
6. Chrome blingy (if I ever use bling or any other form of the word on here again, please punch me in the nuts) replacement taillights. It was the closest I could find to Altezza taillights. And we all know how cool those are.
7. Wood trim kit. How classy is this? Nothing adds to the interior like fake, exotic wood covering everything.
8. Projector headlights. They even have the "angel eye". I think these would probably look like tits when they are actually installed (they would look tits and look like tits, weird).
9. Grille cover. Yeah, because I want people to think I have a Jeep.
10. Battery operated, princess FJ. I think I just found how I'm going to paint my FJ.

There was actually more stupid shit on the ol' bay but this is a solid cross section of the shit. What kind of people actually buy this stuff? I mean the FJ (and this may sound a little preachy or like an ad but just hang with me) is a fairly serious off-road vehicle that doesn't have a lot of extra "fancy" stuff. The paint is even non-metallic so it is easier to touchup if you scrap it against trees (or if someone door dings you). Then again, I've seen pictures of people that have put 24's with lowpro tires on their FJ's. And to all those people . . . whatever.
