    You should take a picture tomorrow. Now I am curious. It could be unfinished paint they oversprayed primer with a light coat of base, or they cut corners and didn't finish the paint underneath and left it primer. Or it could be some type of undercoating they are applying but all trucks should have that color underneath then? I don't expect them to put the same detail of gloss over base on the under carriage but they should at least paint it the base color over primer. Are all your guys red trucks the same as his?

    I only got Brocelona cause it was cheap, and the dealer took $1,500 off. Now I'm sold on it, my favorite color.

    Looks awesome clean...

    @Taco Wheeler I'd say the paint is pretty good, but you can see in my first clean pic, the plastic parts are slightly darker than the rest of the body, I've noticed this on all color Tacomas.

    Little tree air fresheners. Clazzio black leather seat covers.
    I just ran the scotch pad down the channel and then the wipes. Peeled the film off the visors and stuck them up in the channel, then rolled the window up and left it up for a little longer the the recommended time frame. It was pretty straight forward. Pretty hard to screw up. It's not a race to get them on, just take your time.e and do it right, scotch pad, wipe, sticky off, shove up in so it lines up, roll up window and let sit.

    I love the BR, looks good clean or dirty, and the change in the brightness of the color in sun and shade is pretty awesome.

    Function or belly clearance, I chose belly clearance :rofl: The 2.7 is a little to slow for desert racing, so I figure it will be a trail/ mall vehicle.

    When I switch to the Fox DB lift coilovers, I'm going to try and lower it down to about 3.5"s of lift, that way I will have equal down and up travel. I think the DB Fox's have 1 1/2" more travel than the standard versions, so I hope I can get some good wheel travel.

    Nobody likes Barcelona red. They buy it cause they are old or because they got a good deal on it. Duh

    Just because you didn't get the color you originally wanted, doesn't mean that it happens to everyone. Some of us went to get the red and got the red!

    I'm on my 2nd BR! I totaled the first one and made the dealer find me the exact same replacement.

    Obviously there will be one there since no one else wants it haha. I'm just giving you guys a hard time. BR is cool, I've actually owned more red cars than any other color. I wish Toyota would make a true red, I would buy it
