    Pretty much what he said. I like the tube look too. I am using thin plate. I think it was 14g. I don't want to add anymore weight then I need to.

    Hell 14 is thick. Id do like 20ga for that. Just filler plates that aren't adding anything structural anyways.

    But fair enough on the tube look.

    Yeah but the 14g was free scrap. It will do. I don't need to spend a dime. Just my time.

    Once your Amazon item shows up I'll mail you the BBR patch with it.

    Got you.

    :thumbsup:

    Hell yeah! I already have yours. I'll get you another for the 4Runner. ;)
    I'll get you one and then mail the Colorado TW Decal and patch together.
