... I think not! Stage 1 complete:

 

I still see a chrome toyota in the middle (it is in the middle, right?), mirrors and headlight rings... maybe rear bumper?

oh... stage 1....

looking good

 

Hehe, I know I know. Im going to do the mirrors, handles (including the chrome tailgate handle), windsheild trim but NOT the toyota symbol. And yes, its in the middle

And I am doing the frame + suspension in a month or so (paint).

 

why not paint the 'toyota' to match the blue body color? (or maybe a reflectorized blue?)
just curious...

 

Well, I actually like the little chrome TOYOTA That will be the only stock peice of chrome on my truck.

Some more pictures:





I almost left it like that...

 

But does black get you back?

 

Chrome does get you home! LOL

A-hole

Looks good though!

 

lookin really slick , ive been wanting to bedliner my bumpers and bezel for a very long time, and almost did it last year. As far as prep work goes what did you do to get the paint to adhere to that chrome well? i was thinking of just roughing mine up really bad with a wire wheel then putting bedliner on.

 

That paint is going to chip right off that chrome.

Better off finding a painted one off ebay or a wrecking yard and painting that black.

 

lol i was just about to say that im gona try to paint mine by messin it up with a wire wheel then bedlinering it, but it suddenly occured to me that i own a sandblaster now ill be posting pics within the next few weeks

 

Gonna look like crap when you get your bling 22's and street radials.

 

i like the chrome better, but that may just be the redneck side of me

 

Chrome sucks, i hate shiny .

 

lol i like your quote Issues-

here in bend / central oregon we have paved roads that are litteraly 45-50 miles outside of town that go on for like 15miles to absolutely nothing, then just end. Then right in the middle of town we have a huge host of random streets that have no pavement and have huge tree ruts and rocks in the middle of them. Gota love tax dollars being well spent.

sorry to threadjack...

 

Yeah I want to bedliner every piece of chrome and plastic trim on my 4Runner eventually...Maybe the lower parts of the doors too.

 

Once you go black you never go back......but you can

 

lol i like that!

 

I'm in the process of doing the same thing...

 

You're in the process of making a red X?

 

x2, hope you roughed up the surface w/ some sand paper or a metal etching chemical.
