My turn for LineX

[Marlin]

I just contacted Jason about some emblems,
I want an 8" Isuzu "arrow" on my hood,
"VX" on each A-pillar
"VX" on rear door
"ISUZU" for each side cladding

If I tape/glue these on prior to spraying, they will result in an upraised pattern in the LineX. That way, I can take tan paint and do the face of the letters on the black cladding and vice versa or whatever color I choose. I think the red will go back on the hood Red on tan will POP!!

One day Jo, One day...

I am going to go without the A pillar decor, maybe a marlin instead?

[Marlin]

Just set up my appointment for Monday. Have to take the truck by on Wed afternoon for a walk over. Gonna talk about what preps I have left, and give sample for color match. I decided to do the regular LineX on the cladding, I don't think the shiny would look how I want it to. I will do the shiny on the top half for UV protection. I also asked about the expanding foam I did in the rust pockets, he siad that will work just fine, but it would look funny, but since it is under the cladding, it doesn't matter.

Just set up my appointment for Monday.

I bet you're excited.

[Marlin]

I am, a lot of work to do, Jason is sending me some printed emblems, truck goes in tomorrow for walkthrough on what I want done and how to prep it.
I aksed about the plastic, he said he will have a better idea once he does it. Will try to keep the cost down if you bring the pieces in off the truck.
Super stoked!!

I can't believe that you won't be driving a Proton anymore. You gonna miss it?

I have a few Q's...Next week I'm making an appointment for spraying Linex to the cladding pieces (black/glossy/uv)...

Marlin, you may want to trim the edges of the cladding a little first so that clearance won't be an issue.

Is this more common than not? I was just going to take the pieces to them and have them do their thing. I brought it to their attention but they said that the technician will know if there is enough clearance. But do you think I need to actually shave the cladding???



Also... I LOVED THIS IDEA!!!

I'm thinking of maybe having a 3d Vehicross emblem that just says "VehiCross" (like on the pillar) on each door cladding and maybe a small Isuzu Arrow on the moon piece...

HMMMMMM... love this idea!!

[Marlin]

I didn't bother trimming, they said they can thin out the spray at the edges, I will cross that road when the time comes, and I don't plan on worrying too muc about the body clips, so I have some wiggle room.
As for the door cladding, not a whole lot of area to fit an emblem, nothing flat enough. I ended up scrapping that idea and went with the factory 3.5l spot and placed old school ISUZU emblems there.

On a side note, Jo talked to me about his LineX job a while ago, but asked me to keep it a secret pending the Moab unveil. Funny thing, I thought I was super clever coming up with the decal idea and using Jason, turns out, Jo had already thought of that idea, completely independent of one another...damned clever VX owners

[Marlin]

Big day tomorrow!!! Never gonna wash that truck again, maybe a hose now and again, no more waxing, no more checking for rock trips or worrying about body rust!
