Did some work to my runner
Well since I've been home over break I got a chance to do a couple things i wanted to get done on the runner. First of all, here's how she started when I first got her over the summer:
Then I took off the running boards and put on a set of 31x10.50's on stock yota rims that came with the truck. I painted the rims with black duplicolor bedliner. I also added some rockford fosgate p1 12's with a rockford amp.
After rear-ending a parked car in the parkin lot at school (tryin to have fun in the snow ) i broke a corner light, so i got clear ones and clear turn signals. I also added some 100W spot lights that i got for christmas from the girlfriend. This weekend I painted the bottom part of the body, my third brake light cover, and the brackets for the fog lights with duplicor bedliner. I also got some new meats 32x11.50 Matercraft Courser MT's, only paid 135 a tire installed... cant beat that! Heres some pics of the truck that I took today... sorry for the crappy cell phone pics, but its all I got right now:
As I do more things to the truck, I'll add them here. I plan to do cruiser coils in the rear and ball joint spacers in the front. I will also make bumpers, sliders, and I got some pretty sweet ideas for a basket for the roof also. I'll keep ya updated... feel free to give me any comments or suggestions!

thanks guys
I started out using a scuff pad then i lost my patience and was sick of it after 2 minutes. I then got some 150 that i had laying around the house. You are suppose to be able to paint the duplicolor bedliner on bare metal, but i just took it down to bare metal in a couple spots that had some surface rust. Other than that, i pretty much just scuffed it so it wasnt shiney any more.

Hey guys, cleaned the truck up pretty good today and took some pics... i know theres a lot of pics, i just like to share...
I'm thinkin about takin the side parts off the bumper tomorrow and painting bedliner on the body behind them and just leaving them off. I saw it on another truck on here and I liked how it looked. I also may cut the air dam on the front so the tires wont rub on it, it does rub a tiny bit there, but thats the only place.
