toy my GF bought me...

my GF bought this for me for no reason, just to buy it... should pay itself off doing a couple side jobs rolling and pulling... did it on my car and cracked the paint, but that dont bother me cuz im going to respray the whole thing once my kit comes in, and it has slight dents but....
didnt go too nuts though... just to clear the tires from rubbing. ill i did was roll the lip totally flat, i plan on pulling a bit when i get spacers... (note the beefed aftermarket sway bar... yeah right)

oh yeah and for the hell of it. since i work at goodyear, i lined up the tire logo centered with the center cap and lip logo... detail, hahaha...

Looking good man! I wish my GF would get my a gift like that. When it comes to cars...she is clueless....hard to find a good GF now days......even though she got no car sense...she is good to me and my daughter so I can't complain.

Where on Oahu you located?

Nice touch centering the logos!

I'm gonna have to get a fender roller like that, took me too long to do it with a hammer and dolly.

heat up the paint with a heatgun, or after you drive the car for a bit and on a hot day. it will soften the paint a bit, making it and the metal more flexible, so you can roll/pull the fenders more without having it chip/crack.

really? I had no idea!

I would never put works on a minitruck. The Works are for the LS.

Can I borrow that when you're done?
I like that you took the time to remount your tire. That's attention to detail.
Good job.

Well my works look "like" his rims.

The next project for me is the Datsun. I'm redoing everything, paint engine interior, suicide doors, new 4 link. It's gonna take abit.

After that the wife wants a Miata. It kinda sucks but I'll put on a turbo so it should be quick.

That chev painted black would look wicked, I love black rides!
