Updating the Splash

[nitrofan1]

Thought it was time to get some updates to the look. Can't stand a stale look!

Got a sweet deal on some Bronco II buckets, Bought some cheap seat covers, some patches of my favorite teams and got em bolted in. Doing a little updating on the dash panel because All black is getting old. Oh, the blacked out grille that extends down to the bumper. I got that idea from the Sport Trac Adrenaline concept. Without a lot of options for aftermarket grilles for 94's I tried something different.

More to come.

Wow, I really like this. Especially your stainless gauge cluster with the splash logo on it. That is a really nice touch. How did you get the ranger script on the front grill?

Thanks!
Got it put back together and now it's Frackin raining. I'm on vacation this week (WOOHOO!) and it's supposed to be sunny Thursday. I'll post some non blurry pics.

The reason for this update is: The look is gettin dated, I saw another truck with a similar paint job , and True Blue Trucks Magazine wants to do a feature on it!

That is a sweet lookin Splash! You got my vote!!

Thanks Multi!

Oh, My manager at work wants my Splash Wheels. I used to have black "D" slot wheels on it and those yellow letter Goodyears #1's a long time ago. Being steel wheels 2 of em warped so I put the stockies back on but they have never gone with the paint job.

OK, I'm rambling. He wants my stockies and is willing to buy me some Cragar Soft 8's plus lugs and centers which I will murder out the whole damn thing. Black wheels, black lugs & black centers.

Should I keep a perfectly original set of Splash wheels or go to the dark side? I heard they have cookies by the way........

those cookies are good. and it will look sick!! do it!! black rims will look better in your truck. u have a pic of the old setup?

 

[nitrofan1]

Let me jump in Mr. Peabody's Way Back Machine with Sherman and see if I can dig any up!

Well, I couldn't find any pics of her with the black wheels on but I do have one of them left in my garage so here's a pic.

 

[nitrofan1]

Here she is. Got a break in the weather so I headed to the lake for the pics. These are the ones I'm going to submit to True Blue Trucks.

Looks good. I love the ranger name in what looks like the font for the new f150 raptors. Have you ever thought about putting in solid glass for the rear? I think it would look good.

 

[nitrofan1]

Solid glass? GOD yes!!! I hate sliders!

Solid glass? GOD yes!!! I hate sliders!
