    Did some gardening, the single cab 4x4 shed its cap and carried some compost from a farm I used to work at.

    Before, with cap, minor flex on a snow bank.IMG_3072.jpg


    After, removed cap:

    This is what my garden looked like:

    Cleared debris and weeds out of the garden and went and got some black gold:

    Also got some beer. Squatting low with a yard of compost back home:

    Damn, I need at least two more cubic yards, I'll do that tomorrow:

    Real paint? Looks good btw.

    I have been sitting on some plasti dip for a while and as you can see my sport rims look good silver even though they're peeling, can't decide if I want the matte black or not.

    Yep that's the real deal used flat black protective enamel spray paint after priming grey, figured I knew what color I wanted and wanted it to stay. Plastidip is cool though gonna derp my badges once wheels are back on so I get pull the truck in the garage.

    Picked up my truck from the body shop today. Washed/waxed the truck and replaced the cabin filter. Also, gave the car a bath.

    Before anyone says anything. Yes, I asked and the body shop said I didn't have to wait before washing/waxing the truck.

    Nice, you scuff/sand at all or just prime over the glossy OEM?
