    Painted my exterior cladding

    Here they are waiting while the epoxy coat dries. They still have about another two days until they are fully dried. But with as good as they look now, I can wait. When they are on the truck, I'll post another picture. [Broken External Image]:

    Painted my exterior cladding

    Looks great! I just touched mine up today after painting it three years ago. Also stripped down my emblems and painted them black with toreador red lettering to match the truck. Will post pics soon as the epoxy coat dries and I get them back on the truck, but they already look awesome :)

    Poser snow shots

    Yeah but you gotta be careful about using hot water to clear snow and ice off a car. You can shatter the window with that sudden temp change. Not a bad idea overall tho.

    I looked at the kit from EE but if you look around you can usually get the parts cheaper by buying from other places but the conviniece factor sure is nice. In hindsight it probably would have been a good idea.
