Thanks! He actually works at a professional race truck fabrication shop and did them on the side for me. He said it was a lot of work and he woild kill me if I leaked where they were made! _________________ If you blame others when you fail, give them credit when you succeed! |

That's too bad. I would love a set, and a set of side bars but with open area and a diagonal ladder type setup. _________________

Just a short update:
A friend from church has been borrowing the bug for the past couple months. I haven't had a chance to paint the bumpers yet, and they have surface rust on them now. I will paint them when it cools down, as 110-112 degrees is a serious zapper of any motivation to either drive or work on it. This fall should see the black side trim being put on, the bumpers and sidebars being painted black, maybe the rear seat being reupholstered and I need to do something with that sunroof. _________________ If you blame others when you fail, give them credit when you succeed! |

Looking good! I'm thinking it needs a little something more. Door and hood trim, painted black of course. Can't forget about the logo on the back too. That is unless you have some inspiration for these areas. |

I agree. I will paint it with another bedliner kit and afterwards, I'll put black molding and fender welting on it. _________________ If you blame others when you fail, give them credit when you succeed! |

That's a nice ride. I like it _________________ My mechanic told me they were money pits. He wasn't wrong. Still love them. What did I get myself into? |

Looks great. I've used Raptorliner extensively on other vehicles I work on and really pleased with it. If time comes to respray, all you have to do is clean and wipe down with grease and wax remover. Would have been cool to incorporate a ATV winch in that front bumper. Kudo's for thinking outside the box. |
