Project Ninja - Pedro's Build

[Krazors001]

I took my side trim off, can I hang out with the cool kids now?

NO.

[ninetysix-ex-jay]

I cant see the pics so what kinda tires are they? And since your side trim is off you can no longer hang out with RIOT

[Pedro]

they are bfg muds of the km1 variety.

i painted the rockers today and the rear quarters, pics tomorrow in the light. still not sure if i like it but i had some rust i needed to hide cuz of the old fender flare mounts and the end cap mounting strip things. I was pretty upset when I took them off and was welcomed with rust

also ordered a Riddler 8.25 cover

Also, when I bought the Jeep I knew it was in an accident but the guy said it was only the front end involving one fender and the front clip. however i think it was worse then he said because my rear bumper used to be red ( i can see the old paint on the inside of the bumper) and there are some dents in the rear quarters that were hidden by the end caps that look like asshole and I dont remember smashing them up ever. So, I think i may order C-rok lower 1/4 armor to cover that up nicely. just waitin on a check

[Pedro]

Pics of paint. In the pics it shows the gas filler door unpainted, but I didnt like that so I painted it and it looks much better, it was just to dark to get a good pic. you get the idea

Looks good, that will make it much easier to clean it up after some trail customizing.

How did you prep it?

I didnt do that much prep, i just did a little sanding and that was it especially on the parts where there was surface rust (like under the rear bumper end cap mounting plate things. i didnt sand the rusty part over the fender much tho because the metal was flaking off and i didnt want to make the hole bigger. we'll see how it holds up. If it starts peeling or whatever I can always touch it up

[CumminsJeep]

there is a flag coming out of your roof rack. AMURICA

[wannabejeep]

that's how my two tone started, then I was like ehh, I'll keep going Looks sick though

[Pedro]

ordered rustys quarter guards and got this message in an e-mail.

"Congratulations! You have just purchased the best off-road products money can buy" - I lawled, and I even somewhat like Rustys

anyway got a list of shit to do this weekend. install rear cover, coolant, brakes, blah blah other little stuff. oh and pray my sliders get here.

thats it. another lame bump

[Burton58]

is that paint still fucking wet?

[Pedro]

no, its fine now I couldnt believe that shit. it was tacky for a fuckin week

[HeavyMetal]

how come the paint

and by paint i mean why not door armor!

[Ktmracer419]

steel doesn't take a week to dry. shoulda done that instead

[Pedro]

the stuff I sprayed the lower doors and rear quarters with was tacky for a week. Dont know why.

yea, im still considering those total fab door guards also, but I dont think I can afford to spring on em at the moment. I gots other things I need first

[Pedro]

Wow, big props to you JCRoffroad. Sliders built and shipped to my door in 2 1/2 weeks. fuckin win. pics cuz it happened. install this weekend
