New ranger mods w/ pics (color matching)
So I decided to do some stuff to my truck.
First things first, i got my 08 sport grill painted black, looks a lot cleaner
Second off, i decided to take off all the bolts from my streetlock wheels and color match them vista blue.
I ordered a 12 oz can of G9 Vista blue and a 12 oz can of grey primer off of automotivetouchup.com.
I used a dremel tool to completely remove the top layer of metal from the bolts, then cleaned them and prepped them to paint.
I hit the bolts with 3 coats of the grey primer.
I then wet-sanded the primer with beer and 600 grit sandpaper.
This is after sanding.
Then I hit the bolts with 3 coats of the vista blue paint
After drying, I hit em with 2 or 3 coats of clear.
also there were washers between the bolts and the wheel that i painted black
/end sh!tty camera phone pics
This is the end result
I also decided to clean my truck and give it an oil change... also seafoam.
