    Hell naw. I even have the alarm clock that woke up Marty in the first movie. It's a Panasonic RC6015 flip clock.

    I'm seriously debating my paint choice now. My reasoning behind choosing black is because it came from the factory in black and since it's a rather cheap paint job with minimal prep work it would hide that fact.

    I really like the quicksand color of the Gen 3's.

    Nah. The 300mhz one is SL2QC and I have the SL2HE.

    I just bought it because it looks pretty damn cool. You don't see slot processors anymore. It's funny I bought a whole pound of AMD Athlons and Intel Pentiums from my local e-recycler to turn into keychains.

    One of these days I will. Black is fine for now, when I can afford a real proper painjob where they strip down to the primer and is not done my Maaco I'll paint it in Quicksand. This paintjob is just to stop my cleacoat from degrading anymore it looks so ugly.

    Hey, hey HEY now.... No quicksand color for you bro! I already called dibs on flat dark earth a few posts ago. If we ever go hit the trails together, I don't want to be looking like bobsy twins.

    I've seen a couple first gen guys do cement, I wasn't really feeling it. It looks like they just used semi-gloss primer and no base coat.

    There's a dude on here that has a BADASS looking 1st gen with a full rhino lined (not rhino line... he did it himself) truck that looks like cement color.

    I am wondering how much it would cost to do mine in tan... I just don't have a place to spray mine. If I tried to spray mine outside (like he did) my luck a swarm of bees would land on it and fuck it up.

    But first he has to fall in the bathroom bang his head and have an epiphany about how the flux capacitor works.

    I'm going tan raptorliner. If you are really worried about stuff landing in your paint make a pvc and plastic spray booth, but if you aren't interested in diy then I'm sure you could find a spray guy to do it for cash on the weekend if you supply the materials. The raptorliner kit comes with the gun. All you need is the compressor and base coat color for tint.

    I am not at all opposed to DIY. But A) I have no experience spraying something like that. B) I would be nervous as fuck I was going to screw it up.
