NC - can't even tell you fixed the left rear. Looks normal to me.

Thanks. They guy who fixed it actually does media blasting and I remebered him telling me he did body work for 30 years before he started doing the blasting. So I asked him if he could pull out the crushed in fender. $125 later it looks pretty much straight...minus a few cracks in the paint. I thought he did a pretty good job considering how bad it was pushed in.

Sorry for more thread highjacking. This probably needs it's own MOD thread.

BN, you don't happen to know what type of paint is on your truck and where it was obtained? I have the traditional alkyl based ex MOD IRR standard NATO green on my 101 and am looking for more for some touch ups.

Most people suggest just going to your local paint place and getting it matched and mixed but I have so far found that they only want to deal with epoxy or enamel. Great for a complete job but it weathers differently from the original.

Gregor,

I mixed it myself--color is stock Deep Bronze Green but I didn't want it to be High Gloss so I flattened it a bit.

If you want/need more info, drop me a line at rovr66atgmailditcom

Cheers

I used to be a swimmer and had a SWIMLN4 plate. It was pretty dumb, until one day when I got stuck in a decent sized creek. From the rear of my car half was in the water and half of the plate read SWIM, it made for a cool picture. My D-90 used to be BST4X4, got rid of that now I'm just an ugly old number combination.
