Finished my project PICS

i havent really posted much about my '90 YJ but ive been pretty busy with it the past couple of months. i painted it green, did a bedliner, replaced all hardware, did major body work, installed new shifter, steering wheel, and other various odds and ends. Im also 17 with very little money and managed to paint and do everything myself for under $800.




















not sure if i have enough posts or not but if not, help posting images would be appreciated.

also in the last pic the hood has dust on it, its not the paint.

Hey, great looking Jeep! I plan on doing some of the same upgrades/mods. What color green is that and what company of paint did you use. Rattle can it? Thanks for the info! Great looking jeep again!

Looks Great! Not to mention the paint looks fantastic for a home brew job. Did you apply any clear coat?

most of the trails around here are pretty well trimmed so im not too worried, and i also forgot to mention the the paint has some clear mixed in, ive tested it, its pretty hard to scratch.

Very nice job. That black on green combo looks great.

Did you do any prep to the tub before painting or just primer?
