Last week i received my braided brake lines from AB. I went to work on sunday to buy some brake fluid and supplies for the job. In the process I ended up on the spray paint aisle, saw some of our new paint and bought a couple cans.



Bored with the woodgrain and tan plastic, i did this....





CROC golf ball marker set into the wood



I still have some work to do...
trim on shifter, right hand side of steering wheel and trim on the rear doors

There are still some rough spots in some areas of the black painted areas. The spray bed armor was not the best, it was very runny and it took forever to set.
I also need to put the land rover insignia back on the trim. But I think it turned out OK, it will continue to be a work in progress

 

I have a question? My center console has a rubber mat. Did you just remove it and spray under it? I like the look. Also is it hard to remove it to paint it?

 

my entire center part is wood, it was part of the 50 year anniversary package, i dont know if yours has extended wood. It wasnt hard to remove at all

 

Oh... ok I don't have the wood. I think I'll try it on the other places though. I was thinking of adding black to where the tweeters are. Thanks

 

Interesting, unique. It seems like one of those things that will grow on you.

 

yeah, im not super fond of the stainless look yet, i may try a different color. I thought about camel trophy yellow, but i would need to do something about the door card color and do away with the leather. I would probably need to dye the dash to black also.

not too sure yet... got any ideas?

 

No, I like mine factory. You should do Whiteboard paint on the dash. I believe I'm going to do my headliner like that

 

factory was fine. if i want to ever go back, i can just take it back down to the wood. Ill stay away from whiteboard paint. But i have thought about painting the roof white.

 

Some people got lots of time with very little to do I guess.

No matter what kind of dress you put her in, it's still a farm animal.

Does that make it run any better, go thru the mud better, climb hills better, or do you just go for purty?

It still won't will a blue ribbon at the county fair.

I'd rather dance with it than look at it.

 

No Danny, some people enjoy making small aesthetic changes to make their rigs a little more unique.

Just because you don't give a $#&% about your truck and how it looks, doesn't mean others don't. I've seen rain on other people's parades like this for similar small mods and it is just plain rude and pointless.

Keep your dumba$$ criticisms to yourself or learn to appreciate the effort others are putting in to make their rigs how they want them.


To the OP - Looks really good, thanks for sharing.
