Did you spray the bedliner on? Or roll it? Did you sand down the existing paint, or just go over it?

And what brand are your floor mats? I like those. I can't seem to find anybody that has the cargo area ones. It looks like you just did the front though.

And finally, do have have details on the roof rack? Mine doesn't have a factory rack either and I'm looking at different options. I may go with the Qtowers, but they are kind of pricey.

Bedliner - Used a roll on. The paint was partially glossy so i used a sander and some scuff pads to just take the top layer off like the instructions called for. Mostly just roughed up the existing surfaces

Floor mats - Got them off ebay. Maybe husky liners or some off brand?? dont remember, one of those that came up during a search. Werent real expensive, maybe $75 for the fronts. We just keep the back seat folded down for the dog and cargo so didnt get the back ones. Did get a large, thick rubber mat cut down for the entire rear though.

Rack - Yakima or Thules are way too much unless you score some used. Got the factory rack off ebay for $50 off a part-out. The rack was again an aluminum no-name off ebay. Assembled and modified a bit to just bolt straight onto the factory bars.

Spent the weekend at a tactical handgun course...Lots of shootin and lots of fun. One of the "tests" Wife showed me up and put a 10 round clip all within 2.5 inches at 10 yards (3 double stacked). Damn, who is this girl?...The instructor told me privately to watch my back and never piss her off. Best advice all weekend.

Got to play with the newer goodies. -


(what does one need with 33 rounds?....RATHER what DOESNT one need with 33 rounds!)


Had her gun hydro-dipped by G-Trigg. Look closely and see the skulls...the one on the Right is right side up, Left is upside down




Let off work early today and really annoyed by looking at the aluminum colored wheels. So....sand, degrease, spray, done. Good'nuff for now.



Guess we like black wheels in our family!



Even her commuter Kia has black rims.

So what's next? Been debating lifting and going bigger tires and new rims but am already so gutless that i dont want to lose more MPG's and power. Daily commute spans 2000-6000 ft altitude and third gear already on a major interstate heading up the pass is getting annoying.
Still need the air horns hooked up

But first, lets go put some more lead down range!

Nice looking guns... too bad we are'nt allowed to have hi-cap mags here... 10 rounds max.

than again those big mags just get caught on stuff when you're carrying... lol

I'd consider line'x ing the lower rear part of the tailgate... a lot of crap gets pulled up there by suction and they rot fast.
