That looks really good. What kind of prep work did you have to do with it? I thought about doing my whole truck with the Linex but $4k was a bit too much at the time. I really like the idea of having the rugged paint job to hide blemishes and keep a good clean appearance as well. Do you have any pictures of the whole truck?

Keep us posted on how well it holds up. It should be about two years before I am ready to do the exterior.

Lots of sanding, cleaning and spraying. I plan to do a complete write up when I am done...hopefully this site can allow this many pictures. The truck is not complete...I have all of the new panels, doors and tailgate completely done (inside and out). Now it is a matter of bedlining the interior of the truck (spring time here we come).

For now I should be able to replace the hood, cowl, doors and front fenders. the rear fenders will go on with a special 3M adhesive (10 times stronger than a spot weld). I can post pictures when I am done with the frontclip.

Still costs me way less than $4000...learning experience is well worth it too!

Just to clear things up, Linex was going to charge $2k for the entire exterior, it would have made a total of $4k with what I already had done.


Still not cheap.
