Its not actually grey its dark Karki metallic which is a Jeep color sort of a brownie green dark gray.
Hopefully i get the body painted quicker than the under side. Was bloody fiddley and time consuming to do it properly.
looking good john.
did you strip off the stonechip that toyota paint on in the factory? or just painted over it?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (4AGE - 86 @ Feb 4 2008, 10:40 AM) </div>If you mean the stuff sprayed in the arches, which has a pinky orange color. No I didn't strip it. Was in good enough nick to leave
About half of the paint under the car was stripped off as I searched for surface rust though. Some areas look pristine then you look closely and see a pin prick sized light brown dot. Some times I would strip the paint off and there would be very little surface rust. Say about the size of your finger nail. Other times it would continue and end up being a half foot squared area of rust. Only very light surface rust mind you. You really can't even tell its there with out being very thorough.
I know the one you mean - should look very cool!!! like this...
