Painting jeep and upgrades suggestions!

[carlton wright]

Looking to have some of the diamond plate and roll bars taken off and painted. The underneath is all new and upgraded geared and on 33s . Thinking about a hard top . Any other suggestions Any good paint shops ran by ODT members in Nw GA ? I just picked this up 99 manual trans . I am super excited check her out . See the back thats what I want painted and the rust on the roll bar stopped. That's the only rust it has .

Beware, there is likely a lot of rust under the diamond plate. It is usually the reason it is there.

Thanks for the info! I hope not. My freind I am getting it from took it off the front and side and re painted it. He is driving it for the next week to make sure it's good to go then giving it to me for a month and if I don't want it taking it back. I for sure want it . I am already planning to paint it if he doesn't and maybe a hard top . He is basically giving it to me at the price and I am sure he would tell me if it needed anything.

That garbage traps and holds water and dirt. I can't count the number of Jeeps I have repaired with junk like that I found rust underneath after being removed.

I guess we will find out . A Freind that runs a body shape said he will take them off prep and paint it all the way around for 300 in his spare time. Hopefully it's not rusted out
