    That's why I had to call! The website would not give a discount??? (Got a better deal through Head Strong, though!) I will give it a shot. Thanks again for the heads- up! :thumbsup:

    Just an FYI on your winch line, you should try and get the canvas cover for the end of the line...synthetic line can break down in sunlight and the canvas cover provides UV protection.

    Installed the @Mobtown Offroad tailgate skin and cap a few days ago. Quality products for sure and I couldn't be happier with the outcome.

    Done deal! That pic was taken the next day after install and I had to drive home. I already wound the line under tension after putting on the abrasion guard and my old Prolink. :thumbsup:

    I didn't. It's pretty secure with OEM fasteners.

    Better to ask what I have not done.
    In your opinion is it bigger or smaller then what you thought? Also your console will be there Thursday or Friday. Iwas stupid and lost the tracking number but it should be there Thursday or Friday for sure.

    I honestly thought I was prepared for the size but when you actually have it in your hand, it's like WTF! But now that it's been on for a bit, I haven't noticed its overall size since the first day of install. From the back you really get a sense of its mass.

    I'm very happy with it as the fit and finish are great. The template is one piece construction-type paper so none of that bullshit taping the template together.

    Ok one more question, is there any thing you would do differently during the install?

    I have a go going on right now and we hit the minumum so your all set to go. Hope in on this now before you lose out. Then have @Rattletrap66 "help" you install it. :thumbsup:
