not the prettiest things ever yet bacause im not picky about the mendrel bending and suck but i think the look good so far. my problem was that my tires were sticking out 4 inches too far. so this is what i have come up with so far
|
hey; it's your's
|
I take it that's not your daily driver, haha. Looks pretty tough, not pretty but I doubt you did it for style points.
|
well today was just fitting and testing. its ont tacked on to see if i wanted to change anything. im changind the sheetmetal to a little bit thicker and im gonna finish the welds and paint them a little later. but as you can see its not even posisitioned right because i happened to loose the bolts to hold it on, haha but a few more tweaks and they shall be ready.
|
function over fashion.. looks good from my house :laughing:
|

|

Once you get it all welded up, grind it all down nice and bedline them. Thats what I did to mine.
|
I think it looks pretty good so far. Just be sure that the plate follows the body curves.
As far as looking pretty, I think looks should equal function. It could work perfectly, but if you don't take the time to make it look "pretty", then no one but you can appreciate it. |
I'm about to start the same project. keep posting pics along the way... it can be my tutorial.
|
thanks guys and i did plan on bedlining the whole bottom half of the jeep. nothing crazy probalby just the rattle can stuff. but as far as pictures ill put them up as i go along. i also have pics from the beginning. so ill probably due a whole build thread starting with that.

I say go ahead and bedlinbe them when your all done. I used roll on bedliner and think it's better then the stuff in a can. I bedlined the whole qtr panel and the front fender.
