I got some more goodies in R2J silders, R2J alum corner guards,Krawler Koncept JK kit.

Managed to get the sliders on, I chose for non painted one's. I still need to get some 2mm hardware for the corner guards and KK kit. I also finished mounting the ironworks swampers.

Duplicolor spray on bedliner works great, just scuff up with a 3m scotchbrite til what your painting has a satin look.

I agree, most (plastic safe) paint should be fine. Just be sure to scuff up the plastic like kincer said, before the paint goes on too.

Tonight's project...

Lockedup Rc F.I. lockers. I gotta say I really like them for the super tight tolerances, but also they fit the stock ring gear.
