I rubberized my exterior!

Should be mostly done in the next couple hours. Here's some teasers to tie you over.

I'm going to run a nice thin pinstripe where the colours meet after it's finished. I rubberized the flares too. It's coming out pretty good.

I thought you weren't going to do the silver/black combo.

But it looks good! Now I know what it will look on my truck, at least color-wise.

The point is if you saw my rockers and door bottoms BEFORE I did it.

F*ck you Ontario winters.

4 hours later and I'm done. I am going to run a dark gray pinstripe tomorrow to finish it off. I think it looks pretty cool.

Why take the flares off to paint them when they were already on the truck and getting painted anyways?

I will have better pics up tomorrow after work.

My roommate came home just now and caught me just as I was finishing it and he wa slike holy crap that looks awesome!

I ran out of the stuff. I wasn't able to finish inside my door sill on the passenger side or inside the door jambs on the passenger side as well. I just used the generic rubberized rockerguar. $10 a can, used 2 full cans.
