    Just dropped her off at the autobody shop. Gonna see about getting her bumps and bruises from a parking lot incident fixed. I guess from what the body guy said the whole bed got twisted about half an inch. y8a8ary5_4af7f2ff49df3b0420bff173a3a274638d471789.jpg9e9any3y_9fbe98b73901c0266d53b460ce7836fdd74083e3.jpg

    Was yours making a clicking noise? I've been hearing a clicking noise lately and it bugs the crap out of me. I've been meaning to take a closer look at it, just haven't had time.

    I'm happy with how they turned out but damn, it seemed like everything that could go wrong DID go wrong. I had to repaint the shrouds 4 times to get the pattern I wanted.

    One of my first attempts at the pattern I wanted. Ended up stripping, resanding, and repainting because of the chips and ugly lines left by the tape because I put it on too soon after I painted it black. But you get the idea of how they are supposed to look.

    Oh yea, I forgot about my sliders! Put those on a couple weeks ago.
