Custom 3rd Gen Two Tone Paint Job

Looks pretty tastefully done, not a fan of his transfer case delete mod though. :)

Toyota clear coat is not very resilient on many of these trucks it seems. I have white single stage especially, my friend professionally wraps cars/trucks. I may wrap mine eventually. Paint and body work is $$$$$$$$$, but I could have a wrap done for $1100 cost. They are even starting to make it where it's "self healing" for rock chips and stuff. Not for everyone, but maybe a good option for some.

If you don't take care of the clear coat with a wax once or twice a year you're screwed. Your White should be back to new with a good cut pad, polish, wax & sealer.

There's an Avery Gun Metal Metallic wrap that's a little darker & more metallic than Thunder Cloud & would look sick on our trucks.

Edit: On a Lambo...

I hear ya, I detailed mine and it came out 100% improvement from the day I got it. Problem is, I was like 9 years old when my truck was new, so prior ownership doesn't do you much favor for a lot of these when the paint is already abused. I like a ton of aspects about wraps, except when you open a door and the inside doesn't match. The discolorations would drive me insane I think.
