Rhino Lined, Line-x, etc

were gonna have two of a kind!

Not unless you are gonna use powder pink for your mouldings and bumper.

Blue and black looks good on yours so I just need to find the time to do mine. I have a buddy who runs a body shop and he said he would spray my entire expy plus the bed liner for $1000. I told him that he was nuts and that he would have almost that much in materials. He said "I never said I was prepping or sanding, you are gonna work your ass off and I will run the gun." So now I have to decide if that is worth it when the paint is still in good shape for a 14 year old truck.

damn wish I could get that deal... I would be prepping in a heart beat... I would love to get mine repainted... graphic covers a lot of the big scratches...lol

If I had a new paint job I wouldn't want to go out and play in the mud. I swear I found every tree limb on every trail I was on yesterday, this thing is a monster and there is nothing else this big running the trails where I was.

I try to avoid the narrow trails... so I stick to the farms... miles of trails that are wider than my expy...

I don't mind trying to squeeze it in.

The layer of dried red clay mud does look pretty good on her right now.

I am pretty satisfied with my expy the way it is right now. It is a cheap vehicle that I can have fun with and don't mind having some good ole' redneck fun. I might paint over the bedliner with gloss black or maybe even a gun metal gray.

dont forget 3-4 coats of clear, very important

yeah I am debating if I am gonna add a couple coats of gloss black before the clear... so some of you should do it so I can see the results...lol

Don't hold your breath for me. It will probably be a month or two before I do anything since work and family are keeping me plenty busy. Hopefully I can find the time before it gets really hot and sticky here in MO.
