Wow... that looks great... and I'm not a big fan of yellow as a car color! But your workmanship on the running boards and bed are fantastic... Exhaust tips look great.... I can't wait to see it all together..... You !

Wow the visor turned out great!

That's one of those things you either really like or really dislike!

I think they ad alot of dimension to the Bonus and Economy Builts! And as expensive as it was, I think you are going to love it and the way it makes the truck look - so it will be well worth it - when you consider the overall cost of what you have done just so far!!

What did you end up doing with the "aircraft olive drab" underside? Anything yet?

Don't mind at all. One of the reasons that I really enjoy seeing fabrication threads on here. I get a lot of my ideas from seeing how others are doing things.

You sure got that exhaust mod done in a hurry. Looks great, like I thought it would.
