thanks man.. once I get settled in AZ I'll be emptying my wallet with more mods

 

Nice truck bro! Looking forward to seein ya around town!

 

Nice looking truck, hope to see you around town as well. What exhaust set up do you have?

 

Thanks! Updated my post. added exhaust info. JBA exhaust/cat-back.
Unfortunately the exhaust tip's chrome is flaking. Any ideas, pointers or links to threads for DIY or should I just get it professionally re-chromed?

 

I am in AZ now.. looking to do interior mods.



Pulled out almost all interior. For now, just cleaning all the dirt and grime off interior. Not worrying about scratches or other stuff.

Will be coloring it a cobalt blue possibly. Other accent recommendations?

 

Damn I saw this too late. This was the first time I tore all this crap apart so it took about 50x longer than it should. Doing all this in one weekend was a bit much but I feel quite accomplished and learned alot about my interior and how it all comes apart.

Finished with the interior pieces but also dipped the badges!

JUST put all interior back together, but I wanted to wait until tomorrow for daylight pics!

Tore apart my shifter knob. Gonna slap some new leather on it as well as a shift boot (maybe in a month or two).

 

Looks great! Post some of the interior all back together!

 

updated

 

I think for the the rest of the silver I will do a carbon fiber vinyl wrap. Possibly next month?

 

Is that blaze blue plasti dip? I'VE BEEN WANTING TO DO THAT FOR MONTHS. love it!!!

 

yea that's it! The only place I found it was at Lowe's. Lowe's had the most color selections out of 4 different hardware stores including Home Depot (they had like 2)

 

I must do this now....damn it....

I still love it!

I can only get the blaze colors at advanced auto parts

 

move some images from orig. post to here.. from when I plasti-dipped the dash/radio accents

 

Looks great man I also have a SWB taco and am debating painting my guage circles blue too

 

Eshaust tip progress..

chrome sucks and is flaky/rusty:


de-chromed and primed:


painted:

thanks bro!

plasti works okay, but I think I might take a step next time and use something permanent like krylon.

 

DIY Satoshi mod! I'm very pleased how I did. Never touched fiberglass or bondo before. lol
