Just because you can doesn't mean you should!
I know it's yours to do as you wish, but if I was the neighbor I would've rather had the peeling paint X parked in the driveway!

Lmao screw HOA!

I'm sure it was already posted, but i dont wanna read every post lol. What bedliner did you use, and from the looks of your setup, you sprayed it on right?

what did you do with the door jams? Pic?

looks fantastic though. My X is green already and I want to stay with the green, but a bedliner in the exact texture yours is. I think i want OD army green. With black accents just as yours is.

He used Monstaliner. UV resistant and yes he sprayed it on. It is the best DIY liner out there.

Got most of the plastics done and back on. Cladding will be blacked out next, Billet is working on some new badges and the sound system is coming tomorrow. I've gotten more compliments on the truck in the last month, than the previous 16 yrs combined. Pictures don't really don't do it justice.

That looks pretty badass... I kinda wish the paint was bd on my new purchase, so i can do this too...

I know this is personal taste and all, but is it me or would a set of Black Harley Davidson style headlights look AMAZING on the front end of this thing?

I love this. Looks awesome. A guy local to me did a 4runner like this in red and it looks great too.

"Just because you can, doesn't mean you should"- So tired of reading this phrase. Just because you could type that, doesn't mean you should. Didn't your momma teach you better?

Have you thought of ML on the frame of the grill and leave egg crate black?

You're a funny guy. I think I would be more concerned with all your neighbors running around with illegal guns(because you can't have them legally) shooting and killing everybody instead of someone using bedliner to paint their truck.
