Sorry boys :bowdown: I was busy cleaning the paint from under my nails :bath:, it took 4 cans of hammered black and 4 cans of black primer to create my latest masterpiece :disturbed:. I found that if you spray the same color primer as the paint that it wont look like crap  :pokinit:  :toilet2: when the hammered does its thing, you know to make it look hammered  :bash: . All I did was wipe off the dirt and spray :cheese: what MINI wants MINI gets :beerchug:

Couple pictures for you, so you didn't forget where we started :biggthumpup:

looks great, mines getting a white paint job soon.  For anyone out there w/ a white 1st gen toy, there is a spray paint at ACE Hardware that is Rustoleum Canvas White, matches almost perfect.  :thumbs:

I really like the stance on your truck Mini, low COG, big enough tires to get up and down the trail, makes for a happy wheeler eh?

Sorry the front bumper is my fault  :bowdown: I was supposed to have that installed but I was painting instead, MINI left me a to do list but I failed, again ,because I was painting :bull crap: or sitting on my arse watching T.V.

I'm thinking it has to do with the fact he changed his name. :dunno:

New Identity, new background, to bad life was'nt that easy.

How about shiny chrome tube bumper :gap:

Normally I don't say this, but I'm leaning toward the shiny chrome. :yupyup:

It depends on if we can modify the tube bumper to my style...that is the question.

Ok, so cut off the super cool hoop on the top, and cut immediately after the turn signal mounts, save the receiver hitch only.
