I look to turn my black 4Runner in red . I want to paint all.The body and all the chrome in red;Bumper,front grid except the inside grey.I remove all the inside of my truck,except the dash.

What is the best toyota red???

The Super red(3P0)Like Celica2000 or
radiant red(3L5) like Tacoma 2005

What is your choice?


there is my truck.

Thanks for your recommandation

 

closer pic?

 

OK that's fix!!

what is your suggestion??

 

what about the blue on the 02 4runner. i like that color

 

that's not a bad idea,but my choice of blue would be the Bright Blue Metallic Clearcoat 8P1 (like Tacoma '05).

That's not easy,but i want my Runner in red,ehhhhhhhh probably!!

Thanks for your idea !!

 

I thought you painted the emblem on the 4runner red...
Whats the red on ther side of your door?

 

This is the logo for the Toyota F1 .

You can find the logo at this place,

the logo is ready to cut.

For my color,it's all the body,the bumper's ,the grid except the logo and the middle(the inside grey of the grid),the inside,i remove all the inside,the windows,carpet,seats,allllllllll.My appointment to the paint shop is the first week of june.

 

Wow, that is quite a job you have ahead of you!
Just be sure they prep the paint very well to get good adhesion before shooting it with the new color.
You might try retrofitting a 99+ limited front bumper on to give it a cool look.

 

Thanks MTL 4Runner,

for the bumper,it's a good idea but the price stop me!!Do you have a good place to order this parts in Qc?

Thanks

 

check the for sale section here, quite a few used ones for sale .. I agree though if your going to do this, the new bumper will make this look 10 times better

 

this picture was before the body shop,i took 8 hour to ''destroy'' my truck.

this picture was after 2.5 days after i received my truck.




Thats a great job.

I choose the red of Tacoma,radiant red.

Next step is: Scoop on the hood ,altezza light and sticker!!

 

I have my 99 limited front bumper w/ crushbar for sale. I will ship to Canada

 

wow so you really did it...

 

If you don't mind me asking, what did you end up paying? Is it base, color, clear? Any pics from a bit closer?

 

If you are going that far a fat lip bumper w/fogs and OEM scooped hood would really update the look and maybe a newer grill all painted red and eventually the headlamps would complete the nose of the truck.

 

Did they paint inside the door jams too?

Looks good! Post more pics, specially some close ups!

 

the color was radiant red(3L5) like Tacoma 2005.I Paid 2000 box CND,the painter shoot all.


The paint is a base coat with clear coat.
For the closer picture,i'm waiting for my scoop and i post more pics this week.

Bye!!

 

Always wanted to see how a color change would turn out. Very nice dude.
