Well I have been slowly working on modding my car week by week since I have owned it. Well this past weekend I had the finnaly gathered all the tools and time to paint my Explorer. I did most of this work in a garage so there is more dirt in the paint than there should be but most of it will buff out.

Before (About 2 years ago):

Now after we painted it the 1st time I pulled it out of the garage for 1 minute and it poured down rain leaving rain spots all over the car. Had to sand it down and repaint the entire thing. I have yet to buff it and put alot of the parts back on I have to wait for the paint to harden. Here are the pics.

So fresh!

22" Rims
Flow Masters
Cold Air Intake with hood scoop
New headliner and carpet.
Custom upholstered seats
Video System
Viper Alarm
Some other unthought of mods.
