then i filled in the top line to make one big bar across the top

[dirtorstreet]

that looks great!!

[aZepolyn]

OOOHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I get it now

yes yes, very nice, now to match the polar white and you're good to go

[Flecs]

thanks for the nice comments yall! and yeah i definently need the right paint... i know a guy who can get me a discount on PPG paint so i gotta get in touch with him

[aZepolyn]

yea thats just too cool. Im all about DIY, tho not to the extent of what Mike does to his box, but yea, DIY is awesome. It's a honest feeling of accomplishment when you install the part, or modify the part yourself, instead of taking it intot he shop. I just wish I could do more modifying instead of just installing :(

[FrankenScion]

Great job Josh! :up:

[cz3ch]

For a spray can job that's incredible... Good work.. welcome to the wonderful world of bondo and paint fumes :)

[Flecs]

well im glad it is well liked... thanks again everyone!

[J_R_Ceja]

Josh, the shaved emblem went pretty good, most peeps replace it. Good going. :up:

[Flecs]

yeah it was replaced first... it lookd way better but i wanted it more "clean" looking

[2toned_camoxb]

It looks good :up:

[mafiamike]

You did a really good job on that man, I'm impressed!

[Flecs]

thanks!

[otaku_d]

You should all see what else he has planned for the interior of his box. He has privacy shades for those rockin' nights. :hiding: He is also sanding all the pilars and parts of the dash and painting them to match the white exterior. Slow going but good work, I couldn't do it.

[Lady Luck]

That is soooo clean looking! Keep up the snazzy work!

[Haxx]
