Looks Awesome! Did you spray the inside of the tub with Raptor? Which gun did you use for the Raptor and how much tint did add to each bottle? Thanks, Joe
 
I did do the inside and bottom of the tub. The raptor liner kits come with a gun. I went with a smoother finish. 70 psi, thinned down a bit with reduced. It’s 3oz toner per bottle. Here’s a shot my paint store sent me.

Thanks for the info, also good info for others planning on using Raptor Liner. 70 psi w/ reducer is the texture I was going for when I sprayed mine. Coating both the inside and bottom definitely helped with sound deadening. That is one beautifully tough looking K-5!
 
Somebody help find @NorCal69 find a proper and correct set of 1st Gen hubcaps!! :deal:

Those 73+up ones were fine while the truck was just sitting in RG primer during the early stages of this build... but now they are looking REALLY out-of-place on such a fine 1st Gen!

You guys should swap caps then!?

Lol! Sorry Greg. Somebody was going to say it.

My build was already to the point where it needed "correct" caps... Mike's is CERTAINLY far enough along to need them....

So no swapsies.... nice try. :cool:

Set up your eBay alerts like everyone else and wait. They don't show up very often, and cost a chunk when they finally do... even the dented ones.
