    I'm looking to buy a UWS box and can't decide between the slimline series or the low profile. So I'd like to see pics of whichever one you've got!

    What makes you a non-believer? I've seen UWS boxes a bunch of times and I think they are the best out there

    No. I meant I wish I didn't need it. It is definitley the best box. I wanted a low pro black box but I got this one used for $100. You cant beat the price. I just liked the way the truck looked with out it is all

    I looked through that entire thread and I'm convinced I'm going to get a lo profile. IMO they look the best I was leaning between that one and the one VTRAIN posted. (Slimline) looks nice but I like the low profile look way more

    Now all you have to decide is silver or black.
    I personally think the black ones look great but they do scratch so you have to be careful.

    I'm going with a black one. I really like the look of the black toolbox on a black truck

    Has anybody ever Line Xed? or painted a tool box? How well does it hold up? My box was the perfect price, just not the perfect color!

    My guess would be maybe $75 to have it professionally done. I'm basing that on a guess
