Mnster.

Paint is done, It looks awesome it just glows. The camera batteries just crapped out.

Now I will have to address the grill its all scraped up and has a crack. I don't know if I should maybe just cut the bumper section off and go custom or just use it.
You and jim should cut off the bumper and you and jim should build a custom stinger to match those rock sliders you guys built

The color looks good in sunlight


Jim sprayed the bedliner in last night and got it finished. The bedliner chipped the paint a little. The masking tape was tough to remove from the spray on bed liner stuff. But, Jim can touch that up later with a brush.


I helped him install a crank window setup

Did he install a power window regulator in the Taco? Because if he did he can come install some power windows in my Tacoma

Paint looks great!

They're not dolls, they're ACTION FIGURES! (to paraphrase a commercial that I've seen a few times).

I just realized something... With the bogger being a directional tread, if you found a complete set, wouldn't the tires be backwards on one side? I doubt the company makes them in both directions just incase people put them on RC cars.
