gonna probably try to straighten it out a bit before i paint it up.

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 11:49 AM

haha didn't realize it was that bent. looks like I scratched it up pretty good too at RC. BTW I think that's the cleanest it has been since i first put it on the truck. lmao.

92 TOY 09-23-2010 12:15 PM

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 12:17 PM

What color is that anyway, looks like some sort of candy pink or purple.

92 TOY 09-23-2010 12:20 PM

hahahahah.....it's not pink.....it's the color of my truck......

maybe i can get some "Hello Kitty" stickers for it

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 12:25 PM

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 03:45 PM

heh yeah, that looks cool, but not sure if I am gonna like the red. lol. I shoulda kept my black paint there. lol.

yotarob2005 09-23-2010 03:48 PM

Pretty skidplate you got the xxx. No more wheelin for you, wouldn't want to scratch that skid. :nono:

92 TOY 09-23-2010 03:49 PM

thats funny......i have no black paint left.....hehehehe....it was gonna be black. if this forces ya to finally paint that truck, then so be it. we were trying to do a tie-die things and it looked like hell (silver ,red,orange,yellow) so we just put the red on and finished it up. the inside is still engine enamel silver

You should see my stock skid......or whats left of it anyways.

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 03:58 PM

or you could keep that one and I'll take the one off joe's truck. they should be identical anyway.

except for the deep gouges.

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 04:07 PM

in mine or his? lol.

92 TOY 09-23-2010 04:30 PM

that would be in your's.

black is so boring though......maybe a different color.....hmmmmmm.....let me see what i find.

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 04:33 PM

remember I have not decided what I am gonna paint the truck, flat black, desert tan or OD green. definitely gonna be flat and not shiny though. it's not a mall crawler. :D

HighLux 09-23-2010 04:39 PM

So your skid plate has been kidnapped and brutally painted?

LOL



Rainbow that thing up!!!!

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 04:42 PM

oh boy, by build thread finally took a bad turn. here we go. lmao. who let Jerry in here?

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 04:45 PM

on a side note, I think I am gonna be making a junk yard trip tomorrow, mainly for a replacement fuel level sender, but I might now have to pick up another skid plate. hahaha.

HighLux 09-23-2010 04:46 PM

I think its too funny he is painting your parts.
You guys would have to be good friends.

I just cant post anything in my build thread..cause I havent
done anything exciting yet. Yours seems like a good spot.

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 04:48 PM

haha i have yet to do anything too exciting either, unfortunately when I did my rebuild, the girlfriend lost the camera, then when i did the flatbed, well she lost another camera, other than that the truck is still pretty stock.

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 04:50 PM

oh and thas far as the weber, I am too lazy to put the photos up on that as well. that and it's not pretty under the hood the way I blocked off the vacuum lines, would confuse the hell outta someone unless they understood how the vacuum rail works. lol.

HighLux 09-23-2010 04:52 PM

Well...when your truck becomes yota tech legendary....you can sweet talk the mods into cleaning your whole thread up and making it look like you did it all in a week.

The mods are very tidy here. I swear they even spell check for me...lol

92 TOY 09-23-2010 04:55 PM

rainbows / unicorns and hello kitty stickers.....Great idea!!! :great:

just think......the mud won't have anything to stick to

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 04:55 PM

i can't complain though, have had the truck a little over a year, done alot to it and it sat like 3 months while i put the money together and what not to do the rebuild.

and it's a beast too. i imagine all that damage to the skid plate was from Rausch. assuming that it was in better condition when you out it on.

i'll paint it black at the end.......just gonna have some fun with it 1st......hahahahaha

xxxtreme22r 09-23-2010 05:00 PM

lol. yeah I don't remember it that scratched up when I bought it. just surprised it has pretty much kept it's shape.

92 TOY 09-28-2010 02:14 PM

so what color will we be tonight?

Grabber Green or Safety Orange?

http://i670.photobucket.com/albums/v...0928001802.jpg

yotarob2005 09-28-2010 02:16 PM

Safety Orange FTW!

HighLux 09-28-2010 02:16 PM

Why not both....orange with green polka dots

toyospearo 09-28-2010 02:17 PM

"Grabber Green" :lof:
Thats a great name.. I say Grabber Green!

92 TOY 09-28-2010 02:21 PM

just a teaser boys.

it's already been attempted to do a tie-die but was no good. she's going black. at the request of the owner (ya big baby!)

HighLux 09-28-2010 02:23 PM

They say possesion is 9/10's of the law.....


Paint it up. No black!!! :nana:

xxxtreme22r 09-28-2010 02:29 PM

oh boy.

92 TOY 09-28-2010 02:29 PM

hahahaha
