Comments: Always loved the xterra since I first saw one on the streets. In '05, got a 2000 SE xterra, forest green, I was finally able to haul all my gear into the woods. Sadly, in '09, a spider totaled the x (full story here). Went out and got this beauty. Its my adventure mobile.

I took them off the vehicle, sanded the wheels, cleaned them, primed them, and hit em up with Duplicolor spray on bed liner. Heres a How To

Thanks for the comments everybody. Figured I've done enough to constitute a build thread, since some people are posting up a build thread after only removing mud flaps.

 

[Bcghosttowns]

Thats kinda what i figured.They look real good and i am tempted but how do they stand up?

 

[Suckafish]

Quite well actually. I did get a pinch of rock rash on one, Just touched it up with a little more rattle can bedliner, looks like it never happened.

 

[ryguy]
