So I layed some tape down to get ideas....

Lets here some feedback - very different yes, but it solves a couple of the problems I have on the body...

I am looking to herculine the lower side of the tape...



The tape is just for an idea, I will be using the rubber tape for my lines when I do it... I am trying to decide on the lower corners, should they be squared off llike I have them or rounded off, or other...

that would be cool...you could also put some black perforated window vinyl (cant see in but, can see out) on the rear side windows to match the lines of the herculine....know what I mean?

It would look pretty interesting to say the least. Don't quite know how I feel about it. Kinda reminds me of the "desert" themed trucks of the past with the red/yellow/white.

Now photoshop it in black. I'm having a hard time seeing that much black toward the back of the truck, but it might look good.

wow, thanks for all the quick responses - I dont have the time/skill to play with photoshop, but I like the rounded idea and the window idea- any idea where you find that stuff?

It will be done probably this week sometime - Keep up the comments ~

the perforated window film can (should) be found at any vinyl shop that does signs or stickers. It is pretty much vinyl with lots of little dots punched through it, like I said its easy to see out of but almost impossible to see in...good security of you have gear in the back to keep prying eyes off.

IMO that back part will look "interesting" and I will bet it won't grow on you if you do it. You asked.

After looking at the photoshop, do your hurciliner where you want it then rattle can the rest of the 4Runner to match.

hey good work Jay - Thanks! I need to learn how to do that!

I think I am going to round the bottom edges a bit and then go for it - I may wind up cutting my rear fender openings toward the rear because I have a mega hole on the passenger side bottom

OVERALL, I am not sure that it is my favorite design, but it will work for what I am shooting for...

Thanks for all the opinions!!!

Check eBay, there is a black Double-cab Taco that is Rhino-lined 3/4's the way up the body.
I think it looks very cool.
There was a late '70's F-150 that used to run around my parts that was completely Rhino-ed, very functional and different.

EDIt - that truck on ebay looks good
