    Pyrite Mica is a classic! Shopping for a 200 Series Land Cruiser and the Amazon green is as close as I can get to it...

    I tried that months ago and didn't get any response! Headed to Phx next weekend and hoping to swap my skewp hood for a non as there are 2-3 guys looking to trade but if it doesn't come together I'm also interested in a swap and may be in Visalia in early April.

    Well, bad quality, but went through this thread and wanted to give an update here to help encourage people to keep posting some awesome pics of our Pyrite Mica!

    Was in the same pot a couple months ago. Had to buy a red shell and repaint it for a total cost near $750. It may be a cheaper route if you can't find a color matched shell.


    Edit (To get back on track): Had a snow day in Virginia last week. Had a little bit of fun!

    I might have to go this route too. It seems decent priced used Truck Shells are impossible to find!

    $750 total, or for the repaint?

    I found a good deal on a blue one locally and called a few shops to see about a color match and they either wouldn't do it or said it would cost the same as buying a new shell.

    ...now if there was a good DIY method that worked....

    $750 total. Bought the cap from a guy who just purchased a 2015 Red TRD Sport who didn't need the cap that came with the truck. Which then allowed me to buy it for $450 just to get it off his hands. Had a local guy repaint it for $300.

    That's cheap for a paint job. Wish I could find that here....the cheapest i could find was like $750, and that didn't include the cost of the cap!

    Lucky enough I knew the guy for a couple years. However, the paint did bubble up in the front right corner due to the moisture underneath the tarp when I store it. Not a big deal to me

    Nope, sorry. Was just making a point that buying a non-color matched shell and repainting may be an easier and cheaper route than to try to find a color matched one.

    @2012TacomaGuy thanks. Jumped into the conversation late and misunderstood.

    This color looks amazing when out in nature. Especially driving down roads where both sides are lined with massive green trees, and it is a outcast day!
