    Hey hows it... new to the forums here but... Oahu. Where did you get your fenders? I have been on craigslist trying to find some but hard times... I heard the after market don't fit as well or last as long? This true? I plan on converting over my front clip to 4wd... would do 4runner but not really a fan of cutting into my core and having to modify brackets. Solid truck.

    I have a 4wd front clip. I bought my fenders on craigslist, but I got my front end at a junk yard (all new parts though).

    finally painted the truck gloss balck. Here are some crappy cell phone pics. I'm also considering polishing up these rsx wheels or just buy new rims and tires.

    Looks good! I like the black. I like the first wheels with the chrome lip, or an all chrome wheel would look good.

    Dumb question but can you please tell me what spray gun you used? I think by your pics it seems simple to paint a truck. I just need the exterior mostly the bed painted. I would probably just do the bed so at least the bed looks decent instead of spotted primered!:brickknock:

    I used a conventional gun for primer and a napa gravity feed gun for the color

    from the big island. I wanted to polish my rsx's but was to lazy to go through the process. So I bought these wheels. Selling them for $160.
