Ha, you should see the paint on my jeep. It's bubbling off!!! last owner had it pained dark Green by Maaco (I think it was black, because that's the color it's turning now). A week later he had to take it back, all they did was cook the whole truck. Which screwed all the electrics up. I've been thinking of painting it black again.

I might make a build thread, CBA really because i barley work on it. No money.

This thing looks amazing after the fender, and the paint. NICE FIND FOR 300!

What brand under coating did you use on the lower rocker trim?


Seriously, its so clean now.
