Getting the Tahoe Painted!! WINNER ON PAGE 9! DAMN!


Recommended Posts

You're going to paint the truck and then work on it, and risk messin up the new paint? Not my truck, but if it were mine, I'd throw the air shocks in it. Whether they are flat, or pumped up from your air compressor at home. It's almost impossible not to touch the car when putting new suspension in.

:huh:

I did my whole suspension without even touching the paint, unless he's getting the wheel wells and undercarriage painted as well I'm sure it will be fine.

dark red alts would be SICK!! but that would almost mean a lot more stuff would have to be painted

either way I want to see the finished product :D

Wouldnt be thehoe92 without teh purple

That's a sick blue. Also, look at some of the Nissan blues, if you get a chance. I like that Chevy blue, though.

How about color-matching the rim lips blue like the truck? That would be ultra-hard on 26s. I think that would bring the truck's look up to date a little bit.

You can't even close the hood without touching the paint. My car is black.... When I did my suspension, I noticed fingerprints here and there. That's the only reason I say that. I know your car is dark too. Who's to say though.... Steve may garage the ho for a month to let the paint cure proper before he does anything at all. But like I was saying... If it was me...

I like that. That shade is kinda what I wanted to see in a photoshop. I posted twice a rootbeer/ Copper color, but it was overlooked both times.

I dunno he is a pretty big noob......:rolleyes:

I was just giving my opinion like all the previous 260 posts in the thread. I could honestly care less what Steve does with his truck. If he wants to paint it pink, who are any of us to stop him? "Not my truck, but if it were mine, I'd throw the air shocks in it" That's all I was saying.

sorry for burning on the other guy who did the dark red Photoshop, but I think this looks alot more natural and "real" then the other guys'. Both of all have skills though. :D
