First Outing Driveway Paint

The doors where dented and previous mirror strike damage chipping off. The bed rails were severely damaged from a tool box that was probably used for wet suits. The rails were gone from just after the front corner to about the filler holes. I used an old hood I had damaged last year for sheet metal and worked it in butt joining to get the sheet metal back to acceptable. I had never done this type of work. I took my time and the result is very good. Even looking for the seems I can not fine any signs of previous damage. Not bad for a first timer.
I left the tailgate lip damage and did not paint the bed. This is a driver and I throw a lot of rock and grove material in it throughout the year. Not the original dealer(?) sticker. I worked around that area to preserve. Not entirely sure why.

Re: First Outing Driveway Paint

And an inside shot
I think I will prefer a 15" factory look saddle wheel. This one is too bright.
I gave up on the Faux wood 72 inserts. My art work was not up to snuff. But I kind of like the dyed factory panel section. The Factory insert will cover if anyone wants to bring back to original.

Looking good! When I saw "First Outing" I was expecting to see pics of rock chips. Good, no chips.
