Well I got my new doors hung and started shaving them. They turned out really nice for this only being my second time shaving handles.




There were a lot of high and low spots in the doors...weird as they were all metal.




Got her all primed up and sanded off the clear coat to get her flat black...the bed is acrylic enamel so it had to stay how it was...but it was rough enough to paint on.

Now....to go on you have to promise not to get bent out of shape. This is not your truck and this is the art I am into. This is genuine, legit street art done by a graffiti artist who is a good friend of mine. I love it and I hope you like it.

This is the best mod I have ever done to any car/truck/boat/SUV/bike ANYTHING! I am in love with my truck now.

I have 3 more artists to finish the tailgate (its started but ran out of paint) and the hood and roof.

What do think? Don"t worry I won't lose sleep over what is said.

I personally, think that your truck looks amazing.

Your friends are very good graffiti artists. I have seen alot of things done by people who take their art seriously and professionally and they look amazing.

Thanks Koda...I would've never put art on it by someone who isn't serious.

It's not my thing but I can appreciate the work and creativity you've put into the truck and what your friend did.

I have to ask though, why not a VW Bus?:derisive:

The tailgate I let him do his tag as it would be seen by a lot of people.
The hood and roof they (both brothers who own a comic book publishing company) are doing some sort of cityscape mural...I saw the first peice he drew up for it but he didn't like the way it flowed with the lines of the truck...somewhere along the lines of a war ravaged city...it was odd but it will look killer for sure.

what exactly entails getting rid of the handles? is it legal to not have side view mirrors? and when you unlock it do the doors just pop open?


probably noob questions... but i'm a noob i guess!

thats cool!

now you need to find someone to paint the "non graffiti" covered areas to look like a brick wall or a freight train car. then take some snapshots next to what you painted it like.
