wow looking good thus far man. the hard part about making a set and selling is being able to make a competitive priced product with good quality that will net you profit too. but they look good man cant wait to see an installed pic.

Is it going to be any closer to the body? I also think I would just paint the whole thing black..... oh and get some bigger tires.... sorry I had to say something about them.

i think you should follow the body line on the doors and paint all below that line like on the fender part just to make it look nice but they look good i think im gonna do angle cuts instead of bends on mine tho
They look great. Exactly what I have been mapping out for my own rig. I dont see why more people dont do this.
I think I would like to bring mine right down to the bottom of the rocker more like the bushwacker flat flares just for looks. Itll take a little more work bending the plate around the rocker but I think it will turn out nice.
How many hours in them so far?
And I agree, I think you should paint the entire panel black. Its armour, it looks good black.

I think you should paint them black. you know make your work stand out for all to admire and be jealous about. I cant wait to get mine done cause yours look great and I think mine would benefit from this mod.

hey man they look good. they stick out a little far for me but hey the law is the law right? i was looking at the picture of the build and it looks like your tube is banged up? if it got all banged up on the build how would they hold up to a rock????? also how about rear flairs??? are they gonna be whole rear quarter panels or just like the front? just the flair part? but hey man they look good

i like the overall concept..looks tough as hell from the front..personally i would bring both fronts and rears to the bottom of the body..and definatly make thing look kinda pretty..i got a yota buddy his truck was 5 colors with big black bushwackers on it got stopped all the time we rolled it rustoleum dk. green hasn't been stopped since...if it looks decent they don't look twice
