Well I went back to work today, I dont know why, as you can see it is still very muddy and I managed to have a bit of fun with my new suspension

Also on the way home I bought some tins of Black spray paint and went mad
I like the rims and sportsbar black, missus hated it untill I had finished and put the bar back on. Now she says I need to paint the mirrors

don't know if i like the black, but i like the concept. any chance you can give her a wash so we can see it all clean?

[tassie_ml]

coming along nicely, jury is out on those wheels tho keep the pics coming mate

Lookin good man.. go the V6!!I reckon black rims look sik!! you should paint those door handles too.. How did you paint them?

[salt36]

Thanks guys I like the black

Untill this morning the Ute was clean as I spent $15 washing it Tuesday

Definately need bigger tyres, 17" rims, looking at 265/ 70/ 17s Cooper at's
I will wash it when the bullbar is on ARB saying two weeks.......

I used a polyurethane wheel paint and just pressure washed the rims and painted while on the ute. I moved forward a few times to make sure the whole rims were painted.

Thinking about the door handles, but a massive job to take them all off......

Add some black sliders in too.

285/75/16 is too small
try putting 315/70/16

Ok just for you Easyt I think I will eventually get rid of most if not all the silver. Maybe paint the flares same as the body NOT a job I would be doing though, I'll take em off but have the spray painter do it

Still needs sliders to really set it off. Those side steps look ugly.

[salt36]

Yep I agree, they are on the wish list, I think i will get the ARB scrub bars and steps.......

[easyt]

i like it

but have you thought about painting the flares and side steps black? i think that will tie it all in together (as long as the bar you ordered is black too )

Hmmm....interesting I might try and photoshop the different colours and see what looks better

Will post the results

I managed to photoshop the black flairs, step and door handles, oh and the mirror......

Photoshop of the body colour didn't work
