Am I crazy for trying to go bronz'ish on the wheels? All opinions will be considered before I paint the rest of the wheels.
Upgraded to 97 t100 1ton brake booster and master cylinder. To help with tundra 231s. Way better brake pedal now. Write up in my build thread if anyone is interested.
I used the non ABs masterthanks for this. I am still putting together parts for my TBU. Might have to add this. I am also replacing all my brake lines. I wonder how many people complain about soft pedal after doing a TBU and keep their 16+year old rubber brake hoses. They can swell with increased pressure if old, like an artery about to burst.
My wheels are peeling so I decided to paint them. I just started with the spare I picked up from another forum member. Color is "rustic mist" that I picked up and, well, I think I really like it.

This shot was taken just after I applied the second Wet coat (I'm holding a paper towel in the lower portion of the frame for a white balance reference). I'm using Rustoleum metallic primer + paint; planning on finishing it with a clear enamel.
I am really looking forward to getting to 696969 miles...
Like the looks of the gold. I'm working on mine right now with the duplicolor dark grey, letting them harden up in the furnace room.
