    I have. I want to keep the paint though, I feel it’s more refined. The truck will look tough but classy. Bedliner is a bit too much for my liking. Though tan bedliner would look cool....

    Do you mean like tree branches like normal people? Or substantial contact with a tree, like in an accident?

    I’m talking being pressed into the trunk of a tree and drug, which apparently I’m good at.

    Film probably wont fair well

    This is why you need mirror skids. You heard it here first.

    I'm thinking something similar to rear diff armor.

    Thoughts on a smooth bedliner? I used durabak on my interior and love it. They offer both smooth and textured bed liner. Would hide body work discrepancies as well as be tough as shit. Plethora of colors too. Thinking of doing the entire truck. Shit, white would be a good option because it would go nicely with all the spots I don’t cover, like door jams.

    I’m really leaning towards the white liner. If I miss spots, no one is the wiser. It’ll look pretty subtle. And it’ll be tough as fuck. Downside is cost but meh, may as well do it once and do it right.

    I knew you'd like it better without the 4" rake, you're welcome.

    Yea, Short Bed would have to be a Single Cab.

    Definitely much better.

    This is what I said.

    They always come around Jaime. You're the master here, and we're all just grasshoppers.

    I didn't think failure was in his vocabulary.

    It's easier than painting.

    Aluminum foil for the ease, and cost, and aliens.

    $5 he would if he saw aliens.

    Sure?

    Then he could add those Raptor lights in the grill.

    Keeping the paint, check. Or is he, double check.

    Hell yeah!

    Red?

    Substantial contact is normal for Randejo.

    See, normal stuff.

    Aluminum foil is easier to replace on the trail.

    This is true.

    Yea except it would limit the width of the trails he could go on. Replacing mirrors is easier.

    Spring mounted mirrors.

    Spring mounted mirrors I said.

    Too restrictive I said.

    Triple check. I think it's time to be tested for bi-polarity.

    Yes #RandyFab, just do it. Hmmm, dejavue.

    Quadruple check. I can't keep up.
