Diamond plate rear quarter panel protection
So i know its not worth anything with out pics. so i did a paint center mock up. So i am starting today. So was wondering if any of jeepers did anything like this. going from the back door and cutting the diamond around the flares to tail lamps. I am going cover the rear tail lamps.
Thinking about notch out the side of the rear bumper use 5/8 steel tubing to cover and protect the plastic lamps. also the tubing is to hold offroad parks flags
