im going to paint the rockers tomorrow im thinking red lol what you guys think?? im also going to herculiner the inside tomorrow. well let you guys know how she goose. Im also cutting a 97+ console in half from the cup holders back cause i need some lol

 

[Kiefer316]

Yuck please do not paint them red. Why not the RE grey?

 

[in4aride]

Agreed. No red. Paint to match beadlock rings

 

[hurley842002]

Personally I prefer subtle colors that flow well with the rig, as opposed to "look at me" colors, that clash with your current paint scheme, but ultimately it's your choice, awesome rig that's for sure :thumbup:

 

[mcantar18c]

Herc the rockers, then paint the Herc with RE Grey. THAT would look good.

So uh... does anybody know the difference between 'grey' and 'gray'? I've always wondered but never found out...

 

[xj-grin]

a vowel?

 

[Hypoid]

So uh... does anybody know the difference between 'grey' and 'gray'? I've always wondered but never found out...

The difference is which side of the pond you are on.

 

[Kiefer316]

Herc is the worst looking thing ever made. Good for interiors but that's it.

 

[YELLAHEEP]

Wow......... just steal my original for sale ad why don't ya!

You'll need to remove the part about the beadlocks........ :twak:



Hurculining the exterior is so 5 years ago.........

I had intended to paint those sliders and the rear quarter guards to match the bead locks I took off it.

But since you don't have the bead locks to match to and really nothing but the blue body and black everything else....... you certainly have plenty of color options.

Hurculine the floors.... you saw what the exhaust did to trash laying on the metal floor..... you're just gonna cook that herc paint....... and it's gonna stink.

But no seriously...... Resist the urge to hurcluline everything. uke:

Maybe not Herc, but I think the bedliner texture rockers with RE grey over them would look pretty nice, going along with the QP guards... no?

 

[YELLAHEEP]

No.

Unless you like your rig ..... or parts of your rig .... looking like an avocado.

 

[Beezle]

Don't listen to these guys , herculine everything: rockers, sliders, rooftop, hood, hatch, that little spot underneath the shackle that no one can see, just get the paint brush and go to town


In all seriousness, I've got my rockers and sliders herculined which I don't regret doing at all because it has saved me a few serious scratches and they are easy to touch up with a can of rusto. I'm the type of guy that hates painting stuff unless I can do it out of a spray can with no prep work and the herc makes that pretty easy.

All that being said, I'll probably won't do it to future jeeps unless its the interior or the bed of my MJ, which I rather get Rhino lined.

 

[mcantar18c]

:roflmao:

Rhino Line =
Linex = :thumbup:

Linex is cheaper, thicker, holds its color better, more durable, and IMO has a better texture. There's a Linex shop not far from my house too.

So uh... does anybody know the difference between 'grey' and 'gray'? I've always wondered but never found out...

my guess would be....


gray= the shade of paint


grey= the shade of a F.O.G"s hair






for those who dont know F.O.G stands for fawking old guy
:moon:

 

[ColoradoRaptor]

my guess would be....


gray= a last name.


grey= a color

Fisked :twak:

Hey Youngster, I resemble that remark!! :twak:

 

[KRONIK]

Hey Youngster, I resemble that remark!! :twak:

lol yes i stole your ad haha but anyway i thinking lime green now haha jk but i dont know i want something to stand out i didnt get to the sliders today help a buddy install a rc 4.5 lift on his 00 so that took my day. also added a plate to the stinger for my winch hook to hook on to pic up tomorrow

 

[hurley842002]

Not bashing you by any means, but can I ask why you feel the need to stand out? A beast of an XJ like yours, already stands out pretty good, not much need to try and stand out any more.

 

[time2getdirty]

i thinking lime green now haha jk but i dont know i want something to stand out

Come on! Green dosent stand out that bad!:moon:
