Desert tan monstaliner. Not entirely happy with the line choice on the front fender, but following the crease as everyone else does wouldn't have protected the top edge of the fender that has UV damage issues. I'll live with it.
 
Liner looks great, but since you have done most of it, might as well do the pillars and just leave a white roof.
I think that would look awesome.
 
One quick project I'm looking forward to this weekend, thanks to @yodaTEQ ...

I completely agree with @2KCruiser

Such a great idea... Too bad I didn't think of that.. I had enough left over to do it. (maybe not the hood.. but the clear is peeling bad enough to not want to put liner over it yet)

But.. another gallon would be another $150 and I'm not sure it's worth the cost.
 
Christian, I really like the look of your wheels. Who makes them and where did you get them?

I believe they are Eagle Alloys 100 Series...they came on it from there guy I bought it off of. At first I HATED them, however after new tires and pulling the center caps off of them all they are really starting to grow on me. I wish they were a steel wheel, however I am not really doing anything crazy rock crawling wise so these should hold up just fine. They make a black version too and aren't too $$.

Again with the steel wheel bullcrap. The stock aluminum wheels are as strong as/stronger than steelies.

The steel wheels will be damaged long before aluminum. The only difference is, steel wheels "might" be repairable.

Not many guys having trouble with aluminum wheels.
 
Agree with you.

But I have "repaired" pounded a steel wheel with a 5lb sledge on trail after it was bent to the point of not holding air... And was able to "repair" it enough to hold air and get the guy home.... Won't mention names (PKP80) ;-)

For that reason alone, I like steel. I'd rather bend then crack.

But again all depends on your rigs intended use and how KISS you want to keep things.

Been there done that. To be honest I don't care either way. I'm happy with these wheels for now and will probably honestly only replace them with 17s one day...likely 4Runner kicks.
 
ACSD delete last night, I can rest easy knowing my injection pump isn't waiting for the perfect moment to lunch itself!
 
Made it all the way to BIG TREE'S today before the storm got to bad...thought there would be more snow up here in the sierra's....
