Refreshed paint job

Post by Nimai_SR5Wagon »

I took some time to sand off the old dry cracked bed liner the previous owner had put on the car. Used some Raptor aerosol bed liner to re do it. It came out pretty nice for a 80$ paint job.

It looks just great! Black wheel arches suit well with red paint.

I might consider that with my daily driver. I keep after getting minor blistering and rust pitting around the wheel wells, fender lips, and rocker panels. I will sand them off, hit it with rustolium primer and than color coat it. It looks good for a few years but than returns again.

Nice job, I love the coloring. Looks like this isn't your first time. By the way, I agree, black color looks good with red.
I learned two important things from the Scorpio compatibility chart. Firstly, Pisces is my best couple, and secondly, Libra is my worst couple.
