October 27, 20159 yr Boat was shiny and mint when it went in the lake. Floating in the direct Sun will take its toll on shit. I am amazed the 11 year old JL car speakers are still alive in the bar....you can tell from the fading that is exactly how it floats

October 28, 20159 yr Machined PolishedChromedBlack - gloss and matteGrayAre the choice. Means my choices are gloss black or chrome looking at my truck and I am sure any chrome wheel will flake here quickIs the polished clear coated? If so, that's what I would opt for personally. If not, I'd still go that route and clear them myself or have a local shop clear them. Shouldn't be more tham $100. Just my personal choice though.

Will that actually allow them to hold up? All sorts of german cars here with peeling clear. And they aren't...and are $300 more, but if it held up it would be worth it. I figured the painted would be psuedo indestructible from the elements.
October 28, 20159 yr And of course that style is not available in polished. Originally what I had ordered in the wheels I have instead of chrome, just figured they'd do it on these too. I only changed my order since they were 3 months out at that point. Probably the same here.
October 28, 20159 yr It really depends on what is used for clear. Of course anodized would be best, followed by clear coat, electrostatic/heat cured paint, and traditional 2K clear paint. The last is cheapest and easiest, and think about how durable your clear coat on your vehicle is. Much like anything else, prep before application is key, and maintaining the finish once cured as well. If you get flaking, it's mostly due to poor preparation and application such as many manufacturers learned in the early to mid 90s.

October 28, 20159 yr I am thinking of doing the underside of the 4 runner next summer using the por 15 system.

I can take that 4ft doll and cut it apart to make stormtrooper armor to fit a child of similar size. A friend did did one for his son and it turned out awesome for $99 vs $650.

Mine takes about 30 seconds to put on and that is only because it has memory from being cramped in the cardboard sleeve. Otherwise, probably a 5 second manuver to put it on.

The armor screws together and you modify to fit the body and attach with Velcro to hold in the right position.
