    I can't wait to show it off! And bash a few rocks with it.
    Haha. I might have a hard time finding places to bath it at GR, but I'll definitely try.
    Agreed. CBI makes some really good armor, and does a nice job of flowing with the body lines, and I am very happy with how this turned out. However, I am still really excited to see what you decide to do with the 5th gen bumpers, since I'm sure it will be a killer bumper.

    Oh I know. Once I revive my wallet from these last few purchases, and beef up the suspension a little, you'll have a nice 3 skid order from me. :spending:

    I was removing my bedside decals in preparation for the new @CBoy808 versions and I was thinking about you Tyler, and cutting the sheet metal. Besides not seeing where my line would be, I was seriously getting a little sick imagining it!

    Mad respect Bro! :bowdown: I think I would have to be ouuta sight while it was happening.

    Honestly, it wasnt as bad as I thought it would be. Thankfully I was only cutting plastic. And thankfully I cut way below where they recommend, because i had a small gap even with the extra I left on.

    That's what my dentist says, right before I want to kick her in the nutz. :rofl:

    Plastic!? Ohhhh, that's right, the lower part of the fender is plastic. I forgot. How my 14' was too.

    Small gap, meh, you can say that's the Flex Allowance Gap :thumbsup:

    Yeah I'm fine with a small gap. If I had cut where they recommended, I would've had about an inch gap. Which is a little much.

    Yea, that seems excessive.

    Did you add some door moulding yet?

    Not quite like that! May follow in @Socalduckslayer footsteps and route the intake into the cab behind the glovebox.

    He used some aircraft ducting to accomplish it. I like that it will pull the cleanest of air, incognito, unique and cheaper. The only downside that I see is increased noise in the cabin.

    He’s running glass though, so I’d have to take a look and see if there’s enough room behind stock fenders. I would think there is.
