    Well, in colorado its tough due to the road and the climate to find a lot of really good guys who know how to bag a truck. Also wouldn't bagging it require constant maintenance of the lines and fittings so the bags don't sag?


    "I love your truck by the way... I think its like the cleanest stock truck... "

    Thank you sir!:waytogo:

    Thanks All,
    Joey- They are not an exact match (Keep that in mind when you see them on the truck) The difference is because the trucks color is the toyota stock grey color with a blue tinted pearl clearcoat sprayed over that. The wheels for simplicitys sake are the match of the over all color of the truck in a metallic base with no clear...

    So the color is not quite a match, but close


    Outcast- Tell you boy its a lot of work, but well worth it to see the set gleaming ready to roll.

    Did a little bit more work over the past few days, I built a sound barrier out of wood and lined it with fat mat and velcro'd it to the back of the cab. I will cover it in a few days.

    Other pictures are of a valve cover I got, I will be working on this but not sure yet on what I am going to do with it, other then it will not be red lol!!

    Wow! Very impressive

    Looks like a completely different truck!
    Judging by the pictures, the painter must have finished within the same day... He's fast! (J/K)
