I know what you're thinking, expo buckets can't bolt into a reg cab without switching the seat tracks and therefore sacrificing the power feature. Well, that's not entirely true. The difference in floor contrours between the ranger and 'sploder and the difference in track lengths can be overcome with a large drill and a Sher-Wood 1/2" spacer (counting on the Canadian guys to really get that joke).

Dude I made a mini press out of the ol' Sherwood

haha, official puck of the NHL!! Tucked em under the carpet to avoid the Redneck jokes and questions about safety. The stick is ridin in the back at the moment as winter weight.

Now that is champ. You do the photochop for your avatar yourself? That looks really sick, have a full size version?

 

[rangerrookie429]

Yeah, saw it on the cover of an import magazine and liked it. Ill post up a full tomorrow as I'm on my phone atm. Also gotta do some more inside shots as requested by RSH. Tomorrows a busy day haha.

That's a great looking truck man. Love the bed cover, you did a hell of a job. I like original work! Keep it up.

Thanks for the positive feedback guys! Got some pics as requested.
For my Canadian brother Mountain Mike, the photochop pic:

Thanks man, that's so cool. I'm going to guess how you did it. Put the camera on a tripod, took two pictures of the truck (one with the hood open and one with it closed) and then layered them in photoshop. Then just erased the layer on top with the hood until it looked good?

 

[rangerrookie429]

Bingo. I didn't use a tripod though. Woulda made for less stretching and such. If I were to do it again, tripod would be the way to go. But the layering and erasing is exactly how I did it. Dead easy man.

 

[MountainMike]

Hmm, methinks when the snow is gone I'm going to have to do that.

 

[rangerrookie429]

...when the snow is gone? In the Yukon that gives you about 45 minutes in the middle of July doesn't it? LMAO

I like the way you painted the door handles and front dash thingy. Lol. So how'd you do it? I want to try something like that for my interior too.

 

[rangerrookie429]

It's crazy how easy it is haha. All you need is a rattlecan of the paint colour you want. I bought the DupliColor stuff in Harvest Gold, then I just sprayed it on a garbadge bag and dabbed. I practiced on a piece of scrap metal first though to get a feel for it. I didn't even take the door handle surrounds out of the truck.

 

[mdn14]

Does it chip at all? Or can you scratch it off?
