Well my '01 Rodeo was finally taken in for paint after I completed everything I wanted on it. I upgraded my stock tweeters, my H/U to a 7" 2DIN unit w/ bluetooth, card reader, usb slot, and a reverse camera. Also got some new foglights finally, HIDs, and smoked lights. Here are some pics:

These are before paint

Smoked corners and custom blacked out headlights

Smoked Tails (I was going for the flat look)

10k HIDs (camera makes the glare worse than it really is, but still needs aim)

New Fogs

New H/U

NEW PAINT
Emblems were removed, bumpers and flares painted metallic silver, body pearl white, license plate frame painted to match bumper (came stock on 98-99).

Pics will be added later today after i put everything back on. Only thing I really wanna do is get a slim PS2 for the flip down monitor in the back.

Nice......But I thought you would change the color. It didn't look bad before...

Well I'll come back later to see it finished...

^^The color before was plain white and in horrible condition, whoever did the work on it did a horrible job. I love the pearl white, give a really nice effect when the sun hits it.

ohhhh I see, I didn't see the difference in the pics..Pearl white It's a very nice color...

Got some pics, but the sun was going down so its hard to see the pearl.

^^This has been around for a while, ever since I had my last camry. Just haven't been posting much about it. The Probe is gonna be parked for a while, since I don't feel like spending anymore money on it.

Hey Tuner571, this paint job was done by a guy here in Belize. Right now he's like one of the top shops here. First time I've use him and i'm impressed. I regular paint guy is good for small jobs, but I don't trust him w/ a full paintjob.
