Side steps will probably be on the market at some point...I take them off when I go off...but the 8.3 month pregnant wife needs them! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif


Thanks Rodster! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif I am really happy with the look that is coming together. After seeing all the photo's of your's and timgco's, I still have some way to go to get what I want! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I like the black look too, but thinking ahead when I trade my '05 for a '07 or '08, might hurt trade in value. Would it be easy removing the paint (maybe power wash or something)? If so I might go ahead and paint them Black.

[VTSTOMPER]

heck no the paint will not come off. If it was an issue, I would snag a set on eBay...they go for $200-250 for a set of 4.

How is the paint holding up?

What is that big thing to the left of your rig in those pics? The big brown thing with some pretty multi-colored things on it (looks like a lot of them have fallen to the ground???)

Oh, never mind. I did some research and discovered it's a TREE. We don't have those out here. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Seriously, I would love to trade you a day of desert wheeling for a day in that beautiful Vermont forest.....

Sounds like a good trade to me! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Hi PhilD!

Yes, I had the tires off the wheels when I paited them. I used Dupicolor spray paint. It is made for wheels, and then I cleared them with the clear coat they make for wheels. I did about 12 light coats on each to be sure. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I then had the tires mounted and it didn't chip them at all!

Here is a link to the dupicolor http://www.duplicolor.com/products/wheel.html

It is gun metal, and has a flake to it.

Nice man. I might do mine after I get my new rims mounted just to see how they turn out.

VTSTOMPER-

First, very nice and inexpensive mod. Second, you stated:

In looking at the duplicolor website, are you referring to the HWP102 GRAPHITE color? The reason I ask is they also have a Silver and I just wanted to confirm.

Did you use the same product line, the HWP103 CLEAR?

Thanks, and again, nice mod...

[VTSTOMPER]

Yep! Those are the ones! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
