Paint looks real good!
Painting just takes experience, and some basic knowledge...oh and some patients.
keep it up, i cant wait to see it done, Have you decided on a wheel yet?

 

Thanks! Yeh, I'm trying to learn what patients is. Usually not in my vocabulary! Oh, I decided on a wheel alright! Just don't have the $6000 laying around for them right now!!!

Bumper cap, and grill painted tonight. Mirrors and bumper should be tomorrow....

 

ah niice...whats funny is i actually pondered what your truck would look like white when you posted the first pics of the titan wheels...weird! looks good bro...white FTW!!

 

Thanks man! Your truck looks bad *** at that angle. I usually don't like the Torque Thrusts because of the offset, but at that angle they look damn good!

 

Was that bumper cap sanded down smooth and painted or did you buy a bumper cap that was already smooth?

 

Sanded smooth, then painted.

 

wow Austin, pretty nice work

 

Thanks! Pretty happy with it being my first time. For sure not something I'm going to give up anytime soon, I love this kind of stuff! Nothing like seeing a before and after that you did yourself.

 

If you don't mind me asking, how many steps did it take, different grades of sandpaper, etc.? I'm thinking about doing the same thing and was just curious as to how you did it.

 

Used 320 grit on a DA sander. Anything rougher than that and you will have sanding marks. I didn't use anything after the 320, just sprayed primer, based and cleared it. There is still some fine texture in it, but that's just because I'm a VERY impatient person with A.D.D., not a good combo in prep work! Working on that though.
