FX50 Chop

Just playing around with some ideas for future mods. I think I like the overall feel of this one.

Once the weather warms up a bit I think I'll pick up some Plasti-Dip and see what happens.

I like it, it looks very good.. However, I strongly suggest you keep the rails.. Hollywood did the same with his ride and I believe he regrets not keeping the rails.

I was just over on his thread and realized he went through a lot of the same thought process.
I'd like to talk to him about the rails, I have no use for them and I think it cleans up the roof line a lot. I had them off before just to check the look and I liked it.

It defiantly cleans up the roof line, but it also changes the shape of the car dramatically. I think it works a little more with my set up because if the bigger wheels, but with 21" I wouldn't recommend it. I saw an 09 FX50 the other day without rails & it looked funny to me. I had to do a double take. I say black out the rails & the roof IMO.

Either way, let us know how things go!

I think that you should keep the rails.

Looking good so far..

add rails back like others mentioned, but I also would make the rims black to match instead of gun metal imo.

Thanks for the input guys, I was going to do this on the weekend but the weather wasn't great. Hopefully have it done in the next week or 2.

Should I have the wheels rebalanced after painting with plasti dip?

Unless you have vibration, I would leave it alone.
