Here's our 92: Originally all white then painted Dune Beige with black accents and dark grey wheels.

those are good looking lines....

any close ups of where the white meats the beige?


calipber leave the roof red and just pick up a Mombasa Steve is a master shipping coordinator he will figure out how to get it to you.

That is severely cool. I'd love to do that on mine. Bedlining the doorhandles would be a little bit of an adventure, I think...

Here's a few pics. I used 3M 1/4" vinyl tape to make the lines sharp.

Door handles, mirrors and the reveal was shot with black base and flat/satin clear.
Flares, bumpers and rockers were done with truck bed coating.

the curve you got there is very impressive.

Thanks, I wanted the white to look like one of a FJ40.

this is the best layout I've seen for the white paint. Great job. Painting the pillars white also looks bad. IMO

Got our rig roof lined! The liner is actually a milky white grey with a automotive rubbery white paint on top of that. It's guaranteed to stay white without yellowing for a min of 5 years and after that he said all you have to do if you want to is clean it, repaint it and your good for another 5 years. You won't really see much of my liner anyway because our rack covers the entire roof (double protection). I was going to go with a DIY kit as I've done 90% of the work on our rig, but I couldn't find anyone selling white due to the yellowing overtime problem.

UPDATE... I let me rig sit in the driveway till about 2pm in the 90ish deg Tx. sun and then I did the put your hand on the surface temp test.

The hood was HOT, very, very hot and the lined white roof literally was just warm at best!!! I don't have a infered heat laser gauge but the A/C seemed to be blowing extra cold! Very happy with the results!

Thread bump...Do you have another pic from the rear? Id like to see how you ended that line in the back.
