Start of a Southern SandStorm

I finally have gone from drooling to driving (with a little drooling still). I got a SandStorm '08 convenience package and offroad package. Picked it up 02-04-2008

First night home.


First daylight pics.

Black tundra handles and painted mirrors


Nothing modded really to speak of yet but I have the beginnings of a plan in my mind

1. Black it out-door handles and mirrors done.
2. White bezel
3. Trail Gear sliders
4. lift
5. Bumpers
6. -->100,000 still to be decided.

Re: Start of a Southern SandStorm

If i were to do it over again, sandstorm would be the color of choice. Went to mojave recently and ran with a fixed up sandstorm. It was sweet. Congrats and get ready to spend mula.

Re: Start of a Southern SandStorm

Anybody got any photo shop skills? I was thinking earlier that i might go with black bumper wings, mirrors, and door handles and a white bezel but i want to see what it looks like. I also just remembered that one of my coworkers has a little paint booth set up at his place and I have seen some of his work and it is nice so i am going to see if I might be able to talk him into spraying my bits pieces and parts for me.

Those Sandstorm's are nice! Have fun modding it, but beware..........Modding IS a SICKNESS!
