    Awesome!

    I don't want a powder coat on mine as I will get it Linex'd. For the cutouts I think the links before with the circular holes look really aggressive!

    I'll throw one in my next sample. I'll probably be getting this one powdercoated to see how it turns out

    yeah i would go with getting it rino lined and i vote for a trd cutout

    also how hard is it to get the mud out cause if its gonna be a big deal then its not worth it at all but if a pressure washer would just blow it out then its all good

    Well I'll toy with the TRD cut out today. Anyone know the specifics on any copyrights that would be on the TRD logo? If it's a problem then I can just cut the letters out in a different font or something.

    Super cool! Any more thoughts on carrying it further back, maybe to the frame cross member? Maybe even over the trans? I eventually want plates under xfer case and pumpkin in the back too--any thoughts?

    Nice work!

    I will be taking measurements this weekend for a differential cover too, so you wont have to worry about it being exposed. It will probably be next weekend before I can get a hold of a sample and post something. I am planning on having a whole set available in the very near future.

    As far as the TRD logo, we have an awesome machine, so it should turn out exactly how you see it in the pic!
