    I thought about this too, but then I know myself, and I'd get hung up on some dumb detail, and never order them. My rational for buying pre-fab was that this guy put all that thought in there, made sure they were sticky, could last through winter and summer, sourced out the switch that was waterproof ect... If it were me, I would have messed up somehow and they'd be dangling down somehow:facepalm:.

    PS, for those who are wondering what the MattGeko stuff is like in the dark, here is a pic from right after the install. ( current draw was 2.1A I think )

    Anyone interested in some laminate flooring?

    Came out of the garage, covered a 11x12 area. Not perfect, obviously used but not in the worst shape (stuff in the living room of the house is in worse shape :rofl:).

    Still have the underlay.

    Damn it I can’t take my skid plates off

    I plates look gross I wanted to take them off to clean them off and grind off the rust and re paint them once I got the 4 nuts and bolts off because of the bumper winch mount I have I can’t slide off the front skid plate off the 2 hooks there isn’t enough room in order for me to do so I would have to remove my bumper to get the plates off and that just seems like to much work

    If I where to buy after market skid plates then I would probably bend / cut the 2 hooks

    If you want something to hold you over, hit them with a blast of rustcheck with the green cap. Not the same as paint, but from the curb it will look a lot better.
