There's gonna be so many colors on this truck! I like the color, just not sure if I'd rock it flat or with some gloss.

yeah I just got the sample in matte, but im stuck between matte or semi-gloss like the gray was

[TheCrabMaster]

The color has really grown on me and im super stoked to paint the rest of the truck, when that time comes around haha.
Ordered some parts to get it running right! Should get here soon. Also finally got a interview so hopefully i'll have a job soon also!
But in the meantime im doing this stupid traffic school course and it so boring! So im just planning future mods! What should I do to the truck?

[TheCrabMaster]

Okay so basically here's where I am. My MAF sensor arrived today, new tie rods arrived yesterday. I have to cut them down a 1/4 inch so I can properly align my truck when I put on my Belltech drop spindles. Also im just waiting for new upper balljoints to arrive this week!
So with everything out of the way I started mocking up brake ducts!


I just bought cheap drain tubing to get everything mocked up and to make brackets.
Also took my carpet out because its pointless haha and found some moneys

Quick interior shot with my Grape Air Fresheners for street credz

And last but not least my new lugs mocked up on a wheel!

You should keep the carpet. Unless the floor is painted nicely, it just looks unfinished imo.

Those lugs look good!

The carpet was stained and gross, and the paint under it looks brand new I just have to vacuum all the sand up lol

I would do some kind of bedliner or something on the floor. I was driving my truck around like #racetruck #fuckcarpet and shortly after I put my carpet back in I was happier. It's too hot and noisy without someting there.

I started looking through this thread and realized I used to pass this truck all the time on my way to SPC! I remember thinking I liked how it looked lowered with the flares and front lip. Looks like you are making some interesting changes...race truck style, I can dig it. I was going to do something similar with my ranger, but I've moved on to a different car and I'm selling the ranger, at least trying to.
