    Welcome to the forum. Vendor sponsorship is available on this forum. But Yes, I reckon that is the type of paint job a fair dinkum 4wd vehicle should come from the factory with.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    I have always liked the high roof variant, was produced to counter the Landcruiser and try to get market share in the Middle east from the market where the falcon hunters used to stand up thru the sunroof and release their birds. I still kick myself as I had the opportunity to buy an ex Nissan Company demo vehicle whey were first released, had 15,000 on the clock and was used for journo work only. Anyway, good looking rig, but I differ in my appreciation of that Raptor style stuff for australia @mudnut, very hard to get dirt and mud to release

    Bugger worrying about the dirt, just clean the windows, lights and number plates. Then hit it with a high pressure hose. Whatever stain is left, just bask in the 'looks cool' factor.

    I'm with Plassy on that one. It always get me wondering how one would wash it.
