SOLD: TenCrawler's Build

Same deal here with the tire/wheels situation. I went with 17x9 with a 4.75 bs and -6mm offset, which was a mistake since I didn't plan on going bigger than a 265. Stretched my tires a bit. I may sell the wheels and start over. Yours is the look and size I was going for. I may have to check on 275's though.

 

What paint did you use on the center console and head unit? (Details?) That looks good! *Truck looks good as well bro!*

 

Here is a quick run down on the process I used to paint the dash and center console:

Preparation:
- I used steel wool to rough up the surface
- Rinsed the dust off with water
- Wiped down with rubbing alcohol

Painting:
- 2 coats of Rust-Oleum sandable primer (black)
- 3 coats of Rust-Oleum Semi Gloss Enamel

Note: I have tried other types and brands of "plastic" and "automotive" paint, but the plain-jane Rust-oleum is what I swear by. It's the same paint I used to paint my front valance, grill badge, and the same paint I will trust for my satoshi when I finish it. I want to finish my dash/center console with a red pinstripe around all of the inserts and silver parts.

 

Thanks man! I put up a quick guide to the painting process. Best of luck with your project. Check out Post #23

 

Nice lookin build! You didn't happen to buy your truck at Beaverton Honda did you?

 

That I did. Are you by chance the first owner?

 

Was the grill plasti dipped or car painted?

 

Nope I'm not, but I looked at that one and almost got it. I remember the 3 green switches in the console

 

A year later, and I have finally updated my mod list and I just put the camera in the truck so I can take some current pictures of the noteworthy changes, and I WILL post them tonight.
