    I can finally stop lurking and join this thread! I have managed to accomplish a project on my truck!

    Put on a new roof rack and RTT as well as mounted some used OEM running boards!

    the dude has his own welding shop.. I think he just enjoys building and welding shit. Really nice guys.

    granted, it’s HREW steel and not DOM.. but for my purposes, hot rolled is overkill

    And certainly design and the quality of the welds will play a big part as well. DOM that is just bugger welded together vs HREW that has some quality welds done.

    Made a real difference in the sound coming from the doors. More solid and tighter mid bass. Doors have a nice weight to them when shutting. Not difficult at all, just invest in some thin cloth gloves, it really tears your knuckles up. Only advise, other then the gloves, when laying the film on the inner side of the door work with small pieces and make sure your surface is clean. GL
