tacomaman06's build

and your point happens to be???

 

got tired of seeing how my tailgate looked. truck was wrecked a bit before....and shitty bodywork had been done on the tailgate. last week...i ordered some color match bed liner from the guy we get our paints from at work. took the tailgate off this morning at work. took it in and sanded it down in our body shop. sanded off all the old clear and crap that was on where the old emblems were. then, i filled the few small dents that were in the tailgate and sanded it down again. taped up the handle area and the hinge areas. wiped down with laquer thinner, then shot it with the color match bed liner. waited and let it set up for 2 hours, then shot the 2nd coat on it. letting it sit overnight, then gonna put it back on tomorrow after work. the bedliner material(quart),paint additive and hardener, plus an undercoating gun to spray with only costed me $42.................and work didnt charge me anything to use our bodyshop. pics of it finished and back on truck to come tomorrow after work.






i think it looks pretty damn good....and so does boobs mcgee!! gonna wait til its a bit warmer to bed line the rockers,rear fender and fender flares.....gonna herculine them!

 

damn will thats bitching man!!! cant wait to see the finish product!

 

will your truck is gunna be the first to be completely bedlinered!!!


Looks good man!!!

 

.....i was thinking that today bro!! its sure as hell gonna have a good amount on it by the time im done!! but is fun to work on man!!

 

its gonna look kickass broda, plus the benefits of the non-scratchable surface...

 

Didn't even think of that.... that would be awesome!!!!

 

installed my tailgate back on the truck today at lunch. i like the way it turned out...awesome texture. its a little darker than the rest of the paint on the truck, but im pretty sure that after it fully cures, and the sun hits it a bit, it'll be pretty damn close to the rest of the truck. now..its more durable, and thats the biggest reason i wanted to do this.





damn....now i cant wait for it to warm up so i can do my rockers and all.

 

saw a truck the other day was completely bed lined it was pretty sick

 

My buddy had bed lined his old VW Van... It definitely helped improve the look of the beat up old van, but it looked like a pain in the ass to clean.

 

thats when you pressure wash the hell outta it!!!

 

yeah you can pressure wash that bad boy without having to worry about much haha

 

Looks incredible! Are ya gonna leave it de-badged or put the big T O Y O T A across it like the old pre-tacoma days? Think that would look sweet on there!

 

thanks J!!! as for the tacoma emblems, im still undecided, but im probably gonna keep it as it is for now..............but later i may black out a set and put them back on.

 

Looks good man, When you goin to do the rest of the truck

 

i think u need a pink triangle sticker on yur back glass j/k

 

.............wtf???????????

 

stay calm... take 3 deep breaths... then take yur finger out yur butt will

 

it smells like roses now!!
