    When I did the vinyl I had issues with wrinkles so I cut off that section and bed lined it. I was happy with how it came out.

    I really like that. My pinch welds are starting to rust especially after this past winter. How did you prep the surface?

    Lmao.

    Ive had many nightmares about my truck. I Think its just that im insecure or something. One time it was that my LED bar was stolen and evey single other vehicle on the road had one. id get dirty looks for not having one.

    Had another dream my calipers were put on backwards and the rotors were the size of tea cup saucers. (After the planned tundra brake upgrade)

    Did you sand down to bare or just to rough the surface?
    Would it be a bad to go down to bare then self etch primer?

    Finished my LCE short throw shifter install today after waiting for the tcase seat from marlin for over a week so my truck was just sitting around being a pud since i didn't want to put the shifter back in without finishing it the right way or pulling it apart again to put one little seat in the tcase shift tower...holy ballsak that shifter ring did not want to move when i originally pulled it out. Turned out both rubber tower bushings (seats) were shredded and rubber pieces were everywhere...got it all cleaned up put everything back together tonight after getting that part in the mail and what a difference!! My truck shifts short and solid...just the way i like her ;)

    Fragments of exploded rubber seats
