Heres what kept me busy while the paint set.



I also did seafoam today. Didn't really notice a difference.

Did you paint with the tires on?

I might see an advantage to that to prevent edges from shaving off during a tire change.

reminds me of my Runner, no go on the black lug nuts you'll never find them unless you powder coat them but that may rub off. Looks great as is!

Looks great. Nice work.

I simply painted my lugs and touch them up as needed...

I ordered the mudflaps with some part numbers that someone here posted. unfortunately, they sent me the front pass, and the rear driver. I don't know if it was the wrong part # or they made a pulling error.

Thanks a lot everyone! Up close they are pretty blotchy, runs, bumps, etc. But overall they make the truck look a lot more manly. Now I just have to get someone to ship me the correct mudflap for the driver's side.
