SUPER4 SHOP TRUCK PROJECT
Bed floor got its first coat of bed liner paint, will take a few more and some filling and more bearing of tub arches.

It's a very grippy paint once dried and also goes rock solid but needs multiple coats to be truly durable and upto the task.

I also managed to pick up a new pre primed tail gate door which is off the crew cab SR5 models so it's slightly different than the old one as it has no hooks and is smooth finish with no logo. Should look okay once painted.

Having recently rattle can plasti dipped the truck I was fully aware that the 4.5 x 400ml cans would only do so much and that the dip would be quite fragile with such a light coat. So I ordered a gallon can and got cracking, using the rattle canned dip as a base coat. The truck is now fully and properly dipped so should be quite durable. It's made a huge difference and take years off it IMO. Hope you like and any questions regarding the dip just ask.

Hi James,
To do a car well it would cost about €450.00 - €800.00, it depends on the condition of the cars bodywork regards lacquer peel, dents, heavy scratches etc. The next thing that will make it more costly is what color the vehicle is and what color it is to be dipped!.
For example if you have a black car that you want dipped white you will use a lot more product (white dip) in order to cover the black fully and get a nice rich, even bright white finish. Other factors like using dip primer before hand and Pro-shield protective coating afterward also make the process more costly but will extend the dips durability meaning longer lasting and better quality finish.
If you have any questions do just ask.

Small update, fitted a RING Wireless reversing camera which should hopefully rule out sticking the tow bar through someone's front grill. With the rear of the Hilux being quite high its very hard to gauge how far away the t-bar is. Its a Bluetooth kit so no need to run lots of wires from the camera into the cab of the truck. Simply wire the camera to the reverse light wires in the loom so when reverse is engaged it comes on, or in my case I ran them to a preinstalled loom and on/off switch in the cab so I can have it on or off when ever I want.
The picture quality is good and the parking guide is a handy on/off function should it be needed. It took all of 20 minutes to install with the most time taken up wondering where to put the monitor. I plan on changing the head unit at some point to a double din Bluetooth item with rear camera compatibility so when the appropriate unit is found I shall then do away with the window mounted monitor. Being a 2 channel setup a second camera can also be paired should it be required, so for instance one can be fitted to the car/van/jeep etc and the second camera fitted to a trailer, caravan etc.

I think so too Valdas the problem is they are not wide enough to accommodate big stupid tires :D :D. The standard steelies are only 6" wide so really can only go max of 235 on them. Would like 265's on her. I may have found a set of used alloys.
