    Bro, I got absolutely swamped the past few days. Life was like "your hair is coming back, lemme fix that". :D

    Other than smashing your fingers, how'd the rest of the task go?

    The bearing replacement was easy. That took 1.4 minutes. The AC clutch took 2 hours. Had to go rent a 3 jaw puller. And it still didn't fix my AC. I had to add more freon.

    Everything is good now. I just need to change my oil and put on the 0.75" spacers on my rear wheels. Then im done. Tomorrow will be the day for that stuff

    What color should I paint my skid plate? Anything but black, the randomer the better

    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    Florescent Hot Pink with a high gloss clear coat.

    EDIT: With an always on rock light or two to show it off.

    I think I'm going to avoid a matchy color. Pink and purple/blurple are definetly top choices. Yellow isn't bad either

    upload_2021-7-27_14-32-35.jpg why beat around the bush, just use this for some spot touch ups...productImages.jpgit'll add 5+ hp, plus it'll look like you actually use the skids!

    I picked up some florescent pink for my LCA skids, but I'll likely use it on all my skids. I'm a fan of that approach!

    I agree. I'm off work for the rest of the day and I'm bored. Black is too mainstream, and I want to change it up

    I hear ya, I was thinking of what to do whenever I pull off and media blast my sliders. I still have 8 or so cans of Rust-Oleum matte black and bedliner...but you guys and your fun accent color 'themes' make me wonder how sliders, skids and bumper would look in a gunmetal grey, let alone neon and florescent colors! I will continue to follow, if only to get ideas

    I Line-X'ed my front and rear bumpers, as well as my rock sliders. Luckily not my skids though.

    I like the look, but I'd go with a roll-on bedliner next time.

    I just did my front bumper in roll on. And I did the sliders with Raptor liner cans. Those are curing in the basement till this weekend. No extra colors...
