Repainting "DOMPER" my trooper

**Djerms** · June 4th, 2005 09:28 AM

Hi guys, am about to have my UBS trooper (98 model) repainted (wash over) this coming July. Need inputs from you. I'll probably have it repainted by the guys who worked on Afrasay's Patrol and Sammy.

Color Green (from factory specs)

So here are my plans:
1. Of course retain ang orig color.
2. Get rid of the two tone crap on the fenders but retain a two tone color for the lower side mouldings (parang bighorn troopers from japan)
3. Color the lower side mouldings with a different shade (i'm thinking of gunmetal)

4. Color the front and rear bumpers with the same color as the lower mouldings.

Whatya think? Inputs appreciated. Thanks.

Parang ganito ang mangyayari sana (of course green ang color and the mouldings will be gunmetal instead of silver)

how much did they quote you ser?

Dell,
Mura lang. Ala pa 25k ang quote sakin. Washover lang naman and wala namang tama ang trooper. I'm having second thoughts lang kung ipapa 2-tone ko pa. Balak ko dark green nalang lahat pati bumpers.

I've noticed kasi na there's a sticker tape na nilalagay sa boarder nung 2-tone, and I think that this tape can only be bought sa casa. baka hindi nila ma-perfect ang boarder kung ipilit ko ang 2 tone.

May mga nakita naman ako na single color lang na trooper and it looked nice.

how about sa Wet Look Sir? baka may discount pa sa tsikoteer.

Jeepcruizer,
Hehe tingin ko mas mahal jan sa wet look. But I'll still ask around. Kung mas mura, dun ako. Mukhang mapapaaga ang washover ng trupi ko...this wed pasok ko na.

Bakit kung kailan tag-ulan saka ka papaint?(Dami ka siguro budget, ehehehhe).

Boss edwin..kaw naman. Mura lang ang bigay sa akin. Grab the opportunity na ako. They will do my undercoating na rin for free. Ok lang nman daw ang polyurethane kahit tag ulan. Besides they are offering me almost a lifetime warranty..hehe.

Maganda yung USDM Troopie sa pic mo.

Ganun na lang or monotone na.

'Tep,
salamat sa insights. Really appreciate it. I'm thinkin of having either one color nlang or colored bumpers lang (gun metal). Yoko na palagyan ng kulay ang side mouldings. I might just get the black stipe (meron din ang us trupies nito eh) for the sidings.

Whatya think?
