Try sticking the plate to the bed with some quality double sided sticky tape. That will give you a really clean install look, and its not very thick. I love that diamond plate though, could you tell us where to find some? :-p |
So what are you doing right now while I am aiming you? |

Here's the chassis with 2 coats of primer and 1 coat of flat black. Need to spray one more coat on then it's assembly time. http://www.nor-calrcrc.com/albums/flatbed/aao.sized.jpg |
its going to be even harder to tell its not real now. Are you painting the axles black too? |

As you mentioned before, it won't look like that for long. |
I think you should try to make the diff cover natural metal color and the rest black. I think it'd break up the all black and look really scale. |

Should of left the body all sanded like in your pic and gave it the realistic look of 99% of the toyotas that body style out there. |

Well you could of sprayed the bed then hit it lightly with a multi speed dremel on slow with a wire brush for the same effect. |
That I could. But I think I will run it like this for a while and beat it on the rocks then I can always revert back to the primered/sanded look. |
This came out nice badger. Now i have to build one ;-) |
yeah. i wouldnt ruin it until i had a good excuse. cuz it really looks good right now. shelf queen worthy (dont worry we know you better then that) all im saying is the some of the guys on CT would love to pay big money to put that on a shelf. |
