its getting close to the holidays once again, and im thinking i might wanna do some aesthetic stuff to the X (well, have others pay for aesthetic stuff on the X ) heres what im thinking:
1) powdercoat my rims gunmetal gray. i think it would look really cool and kinda match my gray fender flares, side skirts, and bumpers.
2) paint the sideskirts, fender flares, and bumpers white to match my truck. now, the dilemma here is found with the nerf bars. i really like the nerf bars, so i dont necessarily want to take em off, but i cant get them painted white cuz theyll be ridiculously high maintenance, so i was talking to Willie Chu and he suggested that i just paint the nerf bars black. so the final product with this option would be: fender flares, side skirts, and bumpers all painted white to match the truck and the nerf bars painted black.
another thing i should mention, is that if i go with option #1, and then decide to paint all the gray trim white to match the rest of the truck at a later date, how do you think that ll look? i think itll look kinda cool, but i want some other opinions.
also, if i go with option #2, and i have so much more white paint on my truck, itll be higher maintenance, and at this point in my life, i dont have that much time to dedicate to my truck (what with living in apartments, and not having a garage close by to work in, etc.)
oh yeah, for pics of my truck, click on the link in my sig and then click on "stage 3."
thanks.
