How about taking the silver stripes off, giving the truck a darker metallic blue (if possible), making the fiberglass top white and adding a white strip along the rocker panels and fenders (like what people do with the bed liner)

Hope thats not too much...heres a picture:



Thanks!!

Ian before you decide let me try that on your trailer, you've seen me work photoshop before, just got to do it on the laptop, my desktop is OOC for now and I am on a comp with linux, not as familiar with GIMP.

I don't think I'll be able to do the metallic blue portion, BUT I'll give it a shot. For the stripe, are you just talking about going along the length of the 4runner on the bottom?

Thanks, I remember when I had my motorcycle I had wanted someone to do this. So I figure why not do it yourself?

The best way to do it is to go to imgur.com and upload the picture there, then copy and past the forum link on the left side into a message on this board.
