My turn for LineX

[Marlin]

Just set up my appointment for Monday. Have to take the truck by on Wed afternoon for a walk over. Gonna talk about what preps I have left, and give sample for color match. I decided to do the regular LineX on the cladding, I don't think the shiny would look how I want it to. I will do the shiny on the top half for UV protection. I also asked about the expanding foam I did in the rust pockets, he siad that will work just fine, but it would look funny, but since it is under the cladding, it doesn't matter.

I am, a lot of work to do, Jason is sending me some printed emblems, truck goes in tomorrow for walkthrough on what I want done and how to prep it.
I aksed about the plastic, he said he will have a better idea once he does it. Will try to keep the cost down if you bring the pieces in off the truck.
Super stoked!!

I can't believe that you won't be driving a Proton anymore. You gonna miss it?

Funny thing, when I was originally VX shopping, Ironman white was at the bottom of my want list, followed by proton.
After having a proton, I can't imagine having another color.
Having said that, spending this much $$$, I can't imagine keeping it an OEM color, plus the yellow is tough to make look good with the LineX, it ends up with a washed out look.
Plus, for some reason I really like the khaki on black look of the FJ cruiser. Khaki on Plum would be nice too, but I am trying to stick to colors that I can easily touch up if need be later on. The tan I am using is the same as the rubbermaid bedliner tan, makes it easy to modify rims, or any other accessories if I so choose.
But yes, it will be weird to go out the the driveway and not see the yellow monster

Just got back from the walkthrough. They are stoked. Talked about preps and whatnot. I asked how much for the Kevlar upgrade, he said if I was willing to let them slap a LineX symbol above the VX symbol on the rear door and use the photos for local advertising (I have to sign the release) he would do it for no extra charge!!
Getting close now, getting hard to sleep at night, a lot more work to do.
