    Thank you! I've had the ARB for a few years and I'm very happy with it.
    I want to get a new rear bumper.

    The silver one looks ok & right. The blue one, well, I don't get why anyone would want it like that, just looks messed up to me, but if it's what you want & you never plan on selling.

    The OP also removed the fender flares. Since the MaxGuard (Bed liner) I used would not adhere to the plastic flares, I did not do the flares. I do plan on a rear bumper that requires cutting the lower fender and flares like this one:

    I agree if you are talking about the OP. But I think mine looks good. I kept the flares on my truck and went even with the curve of the body.

    Say [OP] that shit looks good. I am doing mine in Al's Liner. I have a Black Taco and decided to do it somewhat similiar to urs except I am going just under the lip on the lower panels and I am using the color tan, I am also using a spary gun powered by air, I have donr the bumpers and fender flares and I love it, once I finish up on it I will post pics.

    All you fellas posting ur crap about how it looks like shit, keep it to yourselves, if the devil dog likes what he did than let him like it dont shit on it with your words. Just sayin, this forum is about sharing mods and stuff about your truck not hating on it and telling a guy how he could have done better.

    Very ballsy to do. Did you not consider using black vinyl instead? Would've been easier to re-adjust and remove. Agree with others about going too high on the doors.

    Thank you! I did ask about the fender flares, and the guy said that the MaxGuard would not stick to them. (Plastic) So I have considered putting on black fender flares, but now it's been about a month and It's kinda growing on me like it is. Before I did this, I saw what OP had done. I did not like how his turned out. I think he went up to high on the sides and he removed the fender flares. I took a photo of my truck and used photoshop to add the black on my sides to see how it would look. I first put the black up to the indent along the side. That looked ok, but the indent caused a shadow so I went even with the top of the indend and felt that would look best.

    I like it...IF it is needed. Resale will take a hit But resale takes a hit on any truck (or car) that is not completely stock. People don;t want vehicles that look like they have been off road, supercharged or messed with..or worse were owned by a 20 something.

    Even young guys will pass an a vehicle that has been messed with too much not so much because of the work but because it may not have been a street queen. People likely prefer Street queens when BUYING if they were modded....LOL

    thats gonna look great. a twist on the now growing fad i guess you could call it. cant wait to see it.
    very nice... i think once i get the rear bumper i want that will need the lower rear bedsides cut out i will get rhino or line-x in a color matched blue over the whole body. maybe perhaps a different color for the bottom. and im debating if the front and rear bumpers will be blue lined too or left black. still have alot of time to ponder ideas. im happy with what i have right now but there is always room for improvement in really any aspect of anything. im my opinion.:)
