    I used 3d Studio Max and some wasted time and no skills lol.

    The trucks going to get sprayed a secret color no clues yet, along with some old school pin striping, and something straight from the 90's. 90's theme is what im going for on this one.

    Grant. Instead of mounting my arms flat on the lower arm i had a mount laying around that i had gotten with some things. mounted it as far back as i could without it rubbing anything. Im planning on doing the Can-Do lowers and uppers. The wheels are a pain. These werent as easy as stock wheels. I bombed them 3 times with Air craft stripper. Wetsanded them at least twice, then buffed them out really good, then used http://www.master-formula.com/Metal%20Polish.htm to bring out the shine and sealed them with the same brand of stuff. i have 2 of them pretty much done, the other 2 needs to be finished.

    Dgerfan. Its a program. http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/pc/index?siteID=123112&id=13567410 They have a trail version. But ive been working in it for about 5 years now, and im still no were near as good from what others ive seen.

    nvrenufedge. Do it man, you wont regret it. I drove 3.5 hours to almost north carolina to get this thing. For the snug itself, the boot for the cab and the snug, and then 4 big clamps was 60 bux. So that 3.5 hours was most def worth it. Also, i go to alot of shows, and ive yet to see any at the shows ive attended this year, and thats including Lay'd out at the park and there was 3 or 4 Toyota Mini Truck mag trucks in attendance.

    groundeddaily. thanks for the comments bro.
