Nice work

Brilliant idea using Plasti-Kote to make a bed liner. I would leave the toolbox unpainted.

Not sure how to go with the outer bed body though, perhaps match the original body paint? Tough decision there.

Spray on bed liners overlap body paint, so I would have done that last but that should be an easy fix.

Bummer! But good choice of a new ESC!

Here's a few ideas on the bed color. First would be to bead blast it and then just shoot some clear over it, this look awesome. Second would be to paint it a metallic gray. Or third, use one of those hammered finish paints. At any rate what ever you do it will still look cool!

I agree with this guy ^^^^^^^ a Clod Cab would make it more like the 1:1.

Truck looks great man, R2J did a great job on that flat bed. IMO I like the truck painted black with the raw bed look. What interior did you fit in there it looks good.
