That’s the only way he deals. @kakwvu is a lot lizard lol

 

is that 2 or 4 fenders?

he is sort of a perfectionist when it comes to color matching and painting, do the job correct once.

 

What you need, I know a guy

 

Just the front 2. I get being a perfectionist and painting is tedious especially when trying to get a "perfect" match. But idk felt 800 for 2 small fenders was a lot. I'll shop around though and who knows maybe that's actually cheap. Haven't shopped for a painter in years. Also to his defence I heard the gray in 2nd gems was one of the hardest to color match. Idk if that's true though didnt look into it personally

 

I'm waiting until I arrive in Virginia next year to repaint.

 

Fiberglass can be tricky to color match as well as not fun to sand. Definitely fit the fenders on the truck prior to paint

 

Mine are still the white they come in. Dont want to run them without paint. I have seen the red dirt here stain unpainted ones red.

Why fit them before paint? Seems easier to bring them in separately. Or is that just so they can have a better reference to try and match too?

 

Have you had them installed already to check fit? May need to trim or redrill mounting holes. I wouldn’t want to do that to freshly painted fenders

 

yeah, def fit before paint

 

You bring up a really valid point. Never thought of that. Guess I just figured since they were used they would fit. Thanks for the advice guess I know what I'm doing today.

 

Did you end up finishing that wrap job?

 

Haha no. Still rocking the multicolor . But what I did wrap is holding up well

 

big mahalos to @El Duderino for the steps! Got me shopping for TRD Pro 4runner wheels now damnit

 

My bad. But they sure look nice

 

Holy shit thought it would be a quick job taking the old fenders off and tossing the new ones on... yyyaaahhhh no. That inner fender liner was a BITCH! Gonna have to wait until next weekend

 

Nothing is ever as simple as it seems lol.

 

gotta say though, your truck looks tough with the new sliders. congrats again


go dodgers

 

I liked this just to unlike it when I seen that shitty fine print.

 

its okay we're both in postseason. hopefully we'll meet in the world series because fuck the red sox

 

Finally something we can agree on. I sent this in my group chat with one of the dodger/laker fans lol
