My Bruiser Project

Post by DSRacing »

I got this in a trade about 2 years ago. I haven't worked on it in almost a year, but will get around to it here soon and finish it. The pictures at the bottom are before it was stripped and after it was stripped.

Looks great. You did a nice job on the paint. Are you going to go with decals or keep it more realistic looking?

Actually, I much prefer a non-stock color. OWN the car, don't let the car own YOU. :D Great job on the paint!

Have these come down in prices at all? I've always wanted one or a Hylux, but just can't seem to spend what they go for :?
