    I picked up some primer and hammered rusteoleum as recommended.

    What sand paper grit should I use?

    @HHIRunner are you going to wire some incab winch controls?

    you should do a write up for us ;)

    I am looking at that same winch, and kinda wondered about incab winch controls..

    Damn man @ramonortiz55 I'm jealous of that hood haha! Too bad there's no such thing as a Desert Dune sport hood out there, otherwise I'd be all over one, but I definitely don't want to deal with painting it.
