Ok so the title may have been slightly misleading. Its kinds big though so maybe it stands.

I am doing some mods (all show and no go :D) shortly so i thought i would post the pics up here.

First a bit about the car.

Its a 2008 BT-50 single cab 2.5l turbo diesel. Thats all there is to know.

Mods so far are
- Tints
- Amp
- 6 x 9's

Mods to be completed shortly
- Front bar colour coded
- lowered about 2"
- Change all interior lighting to white (i think, maybe red)
- Paint the middle section of my dropsides (this will become clear when it happens lol)
- Custom plates (they have been ordered) in Red reading DMS04U

The latest mod, and why i completed this, is my sign writing. The guys at Australian Fast Signs did an awesome job and were very fast! They even recreated my custom Hat sticker.

Opinions most welcome!!

The back is my favourite bit atm

Im toying with the idea of flipping the car on this so its facing forward. What do you think?

If I were you Dan I'd take the advice from the older gents here on the forum ;)


The back of the ute does look the goods though simply because it's clean :yep: but what about the interior??? And as for that 4th sausage roll I recon that one's now an X file :lol:


:cheers:

Ok so i got the drop sides painted over the long weekend. I also painted the mud guards in grey hammer tone which looks nicer than raw aluminium. but they need to be blocked back and redone because there are a few runs. I dont have any pics of the sides but i have this one with the new plates.

You can see i painted all the hinges and locks in body colour so it looks a shite load better than before. See above pics.

Added to the to-do list is sound deaden the thing cause it was built to a (cheap) price and it rattles ALOT lol
