I had the ugliest colored 4runner ever and always wanted the tan color. I know the tan didn't come with IFS but I prefer tan and IFS. Here are some before and afters.

 

alrighty, that didn't work.

 

Thats a huge Blueper. Here is the after in a Blounts Creek paint booth.

 

Looks good, was that done with a rattle can or a gun?

 

It was a Harbor Freight that my buddy had. He said it was like $15.

 

As she sits right now.

 

Details man!! that looks awesome, did you prime it all first or just sand and paint? what kind of paint? single stage or base clear? once again that looks great!

 

Hey!!! Don't go hatin' the blue!!! Mine is Royal Blue and I love it.....







All joking aside that rig looks GREAT!!!!!! Well done!!!!!!

 

Mine WAS the same color, but the PO was a hick and roll on painted it. I was thinking about going the same color tan you went. What paint brand and color was it? Did you prime and clear coat or no?

 

What size tires are you guys rockin? It looks like they fit great.

 

Looks good. The 2 Toyota colors that I like are the tan, and the burnt burgandy/maroon from the mid '80's, My 1st Toyota was a maroon '84.

 

looks awesome! my 87 truck was originally that color now its primer. hoping to paint back same color.

 

Hey, thanks for the compliments. I don't hate all blue, just the electric carolina blue. I hate UNC!!!! Anyways, as far as the details, I wasn't going for showroom paintjob obviously. I sanded her down, did some rust removal and some body filling in the usual areas. The only places I primed was where I sanded down to the metal, had exposed body filler, and along the high ridgelines where I probably sanded most of the paint away. I figured the factory toyota primer will last many years longer than my paint. The paint I bought was acrylic urethane single stage. PPG brand maybe? It sprayed on like a charm. Wait time was about 10 minutes between coats. I got good coverage out of 2 coats but went ahead and put a third on anyways. I got a decent amount of overspray that I haven't buffed out yet. Not even sure I am going to. Still got half gallon left if I ever need to repaint. The top used to be whiteish blueish but I painted it with duplicolor bedliner. So far I am happy with it. I did not paint inside the door jambs and so far have not regretted it. That would have doubled the work for the project. By the way, I am rockin 31X10.5 ATs on Toyota Turbines. Soon to be black steelies.

 

31/10.50/15 Treadwight OTR's on the stock SR5 alloys.

 

nice. that does look really good for a home job.
