Great looking trucks guys, joester looks like you spend quite a bit modding your fg,

Willclarke liking the paint on your beetle body,

My painting skills don't allow for flames, I will probably go with a solid base colour like darkfires fg,

But with white viper stripes, still not sure what colour I should go with,

Thanks for all the pics so far.

Yeah the FG had some cash in it, but I sold it last year.
The 5T is now my project and its getting on the same level as the FG was.

My skills don't allow for much either.  That's where a talented ole lady comes in!

Joester, are yours painted on the inside?  Just curious.  I bash mine too hard to worry with painting another one all pretty.  It looked awesome for.... about that long.

not sure i would paint my truck yellow, but that looks good.
