Smart thinking. Wife and I have an xterra as our primary dd (Z is a semi dd), and we're probably going to unload it soon and get something that gets over 16mpg. (I'm going to miss the hell out of that truck tho).

actually seriously considering this to replace the xterra. I had a blast on the test drive but it is kinda cramped for me and that's especially true if I'm in the passenger seat so I'm gonna go retest drive one again soon and see if I play with all the seat adjustments more etc if I can find that "perfect comfy spot" both in the driver and passenger seats. (it sucks being 290lbs sometimes).

I dont think it looks too much like spray paint, especially because of the texture. I think it give my fangs a sorta factory look. I should have a big PD on my chest, I love the stuff.

I really think the plasti dip is something to do for a temp basis..just to see if you would really like the mod before committing to it.

I go in at 5:30 a.m. so it is still dark but saw them in time. Could have been a rough entry. Of course, I had a long discussion with the facility manager, who claimed he did not know any thing about it. RIGHT! The night guard told me was notified but not the number.
I would've completely lost my cool! Yah, there is no way the facility manager new nothing about it.

Glad your Z is ok though.

I totally agree. Its a great way to experiment. I wanted to do my fangs for awhile but didnt know if I was gonna like it. As soon as I heard people talkin bout PD I ran out and got a few cans. Its great, you can paint away worry free.
