    Yeah, I'd guess so... I don't think I'd do the whole truck but I'd definitely do the rockers, fender flares and bumpers. I'd only go up to the crease in the doors, I don't think i'd go higher like the OP.

    looks pretty good. Just need the rear and front bumpers! I agree that you did go a little high. Should have cut it off at the first lip there. What did you use for this?

    You have to black-out the whole truck. The blue as well as the chrome is an eye sore...

    You can still make it look cool!

    I like it, the only thing i don't like is your paint color is SWB. If it was Magnetic grey, silver, white, or black it look sweet IMHO.

    Yup.....still looks like crap. You aren't protecting anything. You ruined the paint, not to mention sanded it off. Thats not protecting it.

    I would say with the silver, and if you stay below the crease it will look good.

    Do yourself a favor, have someone photoshop your plans first.

    Funny, I thought the same thing, but I used a recent photo of my Tacoma and the "Paint" option on my computer. It's not exact, but gives me a good idea how it will look. NOTE: Checked with my local body shop and he said I should not paint / bedliner the fender flares as the bedliner will not stick to it very well. That is why my after (On computer "Paint" photo) has silver flares.

    You removed your fender flares and went a little high up on the sides and did not bedliner the underside edges. My bedliner will be about even with the rear bumper / top part of the indent along the side of the truck.
