|  Bruiser 4Runner - need recommendations
I just picked up this body. It's a bruiser based body, modified to look more like a 4Runner. The back is bobbed, the doors are removed, custom door sills, full internal roll cage, brand new custom flame paint job, front seat moved to the rear, buckets put in the front... well, you can see all that in the pictures.      The front seats look too small to me. I have a couple Recaro cell phone seats coming that should fit better I think. ??? Here's my dilemma: I'm not really a flame paint job lover, but I certainly recognize the skills required to do this paint job, so I hate to paint over it. I don't like the diamond plate look a like along the running boards, so I would definitely want to paint that. Black? Silver? Red? Also, if someone takes a look and really loves it, I would be open to trading for a different Bruiser/Mountaineer body. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks! |

The more I look at it, the more I'm thinking I should paint the running boards and fender flares black... ? Thanks guys. |

I realize that it took a lot of time and skill to paint the flames on that body, but it just doesn't work for me. If you're gonna keep the flames definetely go black on the fender flares and running boards.

The flames from the door back look strange. They don't flow like they should. Other than that it is cool. I would love to have something like that to play with.

I think it's cool other than the shitty job on the TOYOTA on the tailgate.

I think the paint looks like the cheap fake wood paneling found on most inexpensively produced cars. Personally it's more of a shelf queen body.

Agreed on blacking the running boards and fender flares at least, and about the Tailgate.
