Roof rack paint job...with a little help from Graveyard Graphics

I finally got around to painting the roof rack on the X. That factory silver never looked good or matched anything on the truck. I asked the great folks at Graveyard Graphics if they made a logo sticker for the roof rack in the Nissan body color. Creepy let me know that they didn't, however he did recommend a mask for painting the logo on the rails. So, that's what I did. Several coats of primer and flat black later, I installed the masks, taped off all other areas of the rails, and painted the XTerra logos with Nissan KY2 (Granite). The end result is absolutely awesome! Of course, true to form....I painted one of the rails with the logo on the inside. OOPS! Creepy at Graveyard Graphics to the rescue with another mask. He also sent along a Graveyard Graphics logo sticker and a Swiss Army knife XTerra sticker. That guy is awesome!

This is how the roof racks should have been done on the X's from the get-go in my opinion.


Nice job though buddy. It looks great!
