    Here’s a little update on my never ending project. Excuse the huge ass mess.

    It’s starting to look like a truck again. I’m pretty pleased with how the paint turned out. There’s a lot of trash in the clear coat, but that is to be expected when painting in a garage. It should all buff out just fine.

    I also started fitting the bushwhacker flares. Don’t let anyone fool you... these are a pain in the ass to install, but they look pretty sweet on the truck. I’m going to fit them all and then remove them to spray Raptor liner on them. I should have that done and installed by Sunday.

    Lookin good bud! If you wind up painting anything else in your garage again, an old school trick is to sprinkle the floor with water to keep the dust down. But like you said, most if not all the trash will buff out.

    I swear I gave you some love already but I don't see my post! I think that color looks freaking great with the first gen body :drool::drool:Great choice on the color man. The dude who responded before me^^Empty_Lord did a first gen TUNDRA reg cab long bed in cement and it also looks just awesome too. Funny those third gen colors really do look good on the first gen tacos and tundras. :D
