[AtomicHoe094]

your a crazy mannn! that paint is rediculouslllyyy expensive! looked into that shit before, haha noo way. But damn, should look sexy.

 

[riviera rider]

lets just say, thank god i paint myself and i found the SICKEST price on the paint. and they spilled like 3 ounces when they shipped it to me and i took pics of the box with paint on it and they are sending me a whole nother gallon kit for free hahahahaha


but all body work is being done by me because the bodymen are lazy and like to use the d.a. sander and i want my shit strait as it was brand new on the lot so im hand blocking the whole truck. i had my body man shave the roof rack and do one big crease besides that its all done by me personally


heres more updates from today comin together pretty good so far

and if ur wondering why the primer is blue its because i tint the last coat as a guide coat for blocking

 

[drowndindreams]

what color are you shooting for? that last pic of the colors looks sick.

People and Chameleon...sometimes I'm a fan...sometimes I am not.

Handblocking is sick! Get your ass in shape!

Why aren't you shaving anything...just out of curiousity.

GL!

 

[lowlows18]

how come no shave door handles or tailgate?..i would even just shave the rear handles and tailgate and leave the front door handles...kinda would look like the way pathfinders look....looks good so far...nice work

 

[haks310]

LMAO damn, a gallon for 3oz spilled haha

Are you not painting the bottom half a chameleon?

 

[riviera rider]

i only shaved the roof rack and the front bumper moulding and license plate holes, i got too much into the truck and dont feel like buying poppers for the doors plus its going forsale when its done anyhow

but no im painting the whole truck i just was getting the bodywork and what im blocking in primer

and the colors above is all the same card just different angles and the purple actually looks very nice and vibrant in the sun thats why i liked it but the main color is the teal blue

also im painting all the door handles to go for that new look and also painting around my new grill and just leaving the center bars chrome the only chrome on the truck will be the rims and the center of the grill everything else is getting painted

 

[imtbear69]

[puckhead]

Lotsa work dude! Lookin real good! You said you are gonna sell after its painted. What are your plans after that?

 

[riviera rider]
