I was gonna paint a big black X on my hood because I'm BORED OUT OF MY MIND and decided to update my paint job a little... So I went out and made a big X with masking tape and painted it... no big deal... Well earlier I found some gold spray paint... took it outside with me, and put a thin X inside the black X....

then I painted the wheels.... Then I painted 'FORD XPLODER' on the hatch because I hate it when people call it a Jeep... THEN I painted 'bling bling yo' on the driver's side :confused: :bounce: :bounce:

It's no big deal... The truck is all spray-paint and my mission isn't to have a pretty show truck... I'm trying to have something I can wheel and run into trees and stuff without crying about my expensive fancy paint lol...

Here's the link to the pics:

At least it's original.
 






The gold rims, ahh ok fine. The gold X on the hood, ahh ok I guess. The "bling bling yo" and the Ford Xplorer,

D'OH you went to far.
 






Ghetto fabulous :rolleyes:
 






We'll forgive you this time but promise us you won't do that again, Capman2k? :D
 






HAHA! That's great! We need to get another couple runs in before winter. When do you have a good weekend in the next month or so?
 






I don't even know what to say about that. The X on the hood looked good. Thats as far as I will go with that train of thought.
 






Man Im havin to bite my tounge to not say anything mean. I just cant imagine spray painting my car, no matter what condition is was in. Now if it was second car for tearing up, I can understand, but if its my only ride, I take more pride in it than that... To each his own, even if i dont agree with it... lol

you can now sell you rims on ebay since they have "gold plating", you know some fruitcake will bid on them and take it seriously.:rolleyes:

but it is certainly a job well done.
 






DUDE! Are you sure you're not just taking the credit for vandalization caused at a j--p rally? I know first hand how those guys around CO and WY get when you show up in a ford explorer :)
 






Uh oh....better get Maaco!!!!

I'm with hvac man...ya sure that wasn't vandalism you're covering up??? Either that, or were you blitzed when you did it?
 






i think you should reprimer the whole truck and start over again. the x on the hood was looking kinda good.
 






Whoaw!!!!! Dude whatever is wrong with you, well lets just say it's not a small thing!!:eek: :eek:

Do you know BiPolarBob? Maybe you two should get together sometime. hhaahhaahhaa
 






Chris, read my reply in the 4x4ord forum... once I have a job and get some money coming in, I'll be able to... hopefully I can hook up with you and/or Dan for a run.. that trip to vegas really screwed me over, didn't think it'd be this hard finding a job :(

And... no... I'm sorry, it's not vandalism :) But I did decide I'm gonna paint it back to gray with black rims tomorrow... But I am gonna put something on the back to identify it as an Xploder... since I don't like the badges...

I went to a run with about 15 Jeeps and didn't get any crap, so I dunno what you mean... it was kinda hard though without a lift kit, but that will change soon :)
 






And people said I was crazy for cutting off my roof! They havnt seen this one yet, LOL!
 






You shoulda done that for the Ugly Truck contest at FC4x4, you would have won 1st for sure!:D

lol... Maybe I will next year :) Except I should have my bumper on by then... I've had one since about May or June, just haven't been able to get together with a friend with tools, we either have conflicting schedules or something comes up :rolleyes: ... Maybe I'll just go buy my own toold lol :)
 






oh the humanity!!
