Couldn't find a good Dynatrac logo to work with huh? Looks good and the decals came out good considering how small the logos are.

kaetwo · 09-12-2007, 06:58 PM

Those turned out amazing!

cammok5 · 09-12-2007, 08:39 PM

k9popo · 09-13-2007, 12:19 AM

Thanks for pointing that out.. I totally missed it..! I have been so busy getting ready for our Tri-State Fair & Rodeo I over looked it. I will fix that asap..!

I own a sign shop, so I make all my own decals...

Thanks to everyone who helped out with the sponsor names, etc., and all the wonderful comments..!

Yeah I know of this place, a lot of times you can find the logo & a lot of times you can not. Most of the time the logos are out dated and older versions. But in any event it does make for a good starting point...

I am currently at the fair until the 22nd so I don't know what all I will be able to do with this FJ Cruiser build until the 22nd... If I get slow enough I should be able to work on it....

WVB · 09-17-2007, 02:45 PM

Ok I finally had time to add some more sponsors to the Ultimate Adventure FJ... I have yet to make a decision on whether I will add the Ultimate Adventure logo to the doors... From my understanding that was only added for the SEMA show in Vegas.

I changed out the BF Goodrich along the rockers to the Dynatrac ones. I also sprayed the front/rear & step bars to a satin black hoping to get the look of the ones from the 1:1. Its not quite as glossy as the gloss paint on the body but not so noticeable unless you really look hard enough. Not the result I was after...

WVB · 09-17-2007, 05:48 PM

I have looked around google and it looks to be like 2006 Ultimate adventure with a 2007 FJ Cruiser..?

WVB · 09-18-2007, 03:48 PM

I shot the body with clear after we painted the lime-green color. Now that I have the decals in place I am thinking of shooting it with clear again to save the paint/decals. My question is what type of clear is safe for R/C bodies..? I was thinking a urethane but wasn't sure if it gets too hot..? I noticed that the paint very easily scratches. And would be neat if we wanted that rust look to happen. But the original is blue in color and looks silly. There really is no way to match this green as we sprayed Krylon green into a cup and then sprayed some yellow to get this color. So knowing the correct measurements is impossible...

WVB · 09-20-2007, 02:55 PM

Well our local newspaper wrote about our business and the Tri State Fair... So the FJ Cruiser made it inside the business section..!

Thank you..! At first I wasn't such a fan... But they grew on me... Then I went and looked at one and the so called back seat... There is a back seat but I think only kids will fit ok there as they almost touch the front seats. Also talk about blind spots..!

Yeah it was not easy by any means... Just make sure you have a good machine, correct down force / pressure and speed... The problem is unless you do this type of thing, most do not know what all that is involved in doing such...

Offroader5 · 09-21-2007, 10:20 AM

Yeah, I hate weeding my front yard

I have no idea what "weed" is to you graphics guys :-P

Op4guy · 09-21-2007, 04:05 PM

That is looking good. Can't wait to see it finished. I reallylike the FJ body. I would have gone with that or a Cruiser for sure.

whoops · 10-01-2007, 02:42 PM

I've been watching this build closely. Do you think we could get an update?

WVB · 10-03-2007, 05:09 PM

I added actual window tint to the rear glass, rear quater and rear passenger windows:

And a front window glare strip:
