    Subtle but it's there.

    It bothers me more that it's on an uneven surface and gives the illusion of being jacked up at different angles.

    BTW, if you wheel that thing a sticker on the skidplate won't last long enough to warrant replacing it with a redesigned one. ;)

    Not much yet, got a pretty good sound system w/ my custom sub box. Plan on adding more lights & a tool box.
    Just Wheel it till you have some battle scars on it. Then it'll look fine.

    Pster has convinced me to ask sockmonkey to make me another one and then when I go to install the new one I will take the skid plate off first.

    You don't need to take the skid plate off...just make sure you are laying on FLAT GROUND when you put the next one on. Sorry i poked one of your eyes out...that might make alignment a bit more tricky. :thumbsup:
