    The touch up pen I got from this site (silver) also did not match my trucks paint very well. The paint was too light.

    I have to say, so far, I really like this Monstaliner.

    It's super easy to mix and apply. Tomorrow, I'll put it all back together, throw it on, and see if I even like it...

    It's looking pretty good now that it's dry. I just checked on it.

    I wasn't sure, but I think like it. I'm going to get some black for my sliders when they arrive.

    POR-15 and Monstaliner top coat.

    Well, I can't get a good pic. The color is actually a little darker, and the texture is more, textured.

    But, I like it.

    I'm not sure if the Monstaliner will make my tailgate more, or less, of a target for theft.... :D

    But, I went ahead and installed this high-tech tailgate theft deterrent system anyway.

    Somebody asked for part numbers on what I ordered but I'm not seeing it looking thru the thread now, so here's what I ordered:
    Item No.: HBTL-BC
    Description: 1/2 oz Touchup Bottle, 2014 Toyota Tacoma: Magnetic Gray Metallic 1G3
    Quantity: 1
    Item Price: $9.95
    Item Total: $9.95

    Item No.: HBTL-PR
    Description: 1/2 oz Touch Up Bottle Grey Primer
    Quantity: 1
    Item Price: $4.95
    Item Total: $4.95

    Item No.: HBTL-CC
    Description: 1/2 oz Touch Up Bottle High Gloss Clearcoat
    Quantity: 1
    Item Price: $4.95
    Item Total: $4.95

    It would probably look a lot better if you did all the prep work they recommend but I still think it's just too dark. For mine I just cleaned the area real well and then used an artist brush to put a small bit of primer on all the chips I found, then came back and put some paint over that. When it was dry I put the clearcoat over top. I didn't sand or anything so it has some texture to it now. I'm hoping to just put bedliner over everything someday; that'll solve that problem.

    x2 on what sliders these are. Makes a great step. That much leverage must require a weld on...

    Sorry missed these. Custom from http://www.4xinnovations.com/ he is over in Wi. and a sponser on here. Zero offset and expanded steel fillers. Had them 2 years now and they work great. And the dog loves them too! They are bolt on, which was a chore, but don't think they are going anyplace.
