And while I was working on my xj my buddy Ryan was working on his project rig. A 91 Toyota pickup with the v6/5spd. We are currently in the middle of doing floors and hubs in it and hope to get it back on the road asap. I'm not a big toyota guy but I have to hand it to this truck. It's sat for almost 2 years.. I jumped it with my jeep and it literally stated right up just like it's been driven every day. Typical toyota rust though, as you can see in the pics the front has the worst of it. The rear almost looks brand new!

Today I did the most badass thing in my jeep. I put both of my passenger windows down. Oh yeah....

Anyways.. I need a vote from you guys. I wanna put my skid plate back up since I'm not going to have the $ to get my steering stuff for another few weeks. As you can remember it's currently lime green. Should i paint it black? Or keep ot green? I want to do my steering in Lime green and I think the combo of steering/skid plate/shackles(when I get my bumper) will be too much green. What do you guys think? Can't sleep tonight so I'm doing some jeep research lol

Go black on the front skid plate. Looks way better IMO. Being bright green brings too much attention to the skid plate. Paint the steering components and call it a day

Yeah your right.. As much as I love the green it does bring a ton of attention to it. I'm in the middle of powder coating it black now
