    I have the DC so I'll see if I can double check and get some measurements for you. I don't know anyone with the regular or AC. I'm sure some of the guys up here would be more than willing to help out with some measurements for you though. I'll shoot you a pm when I get home later this evening. At work at the moment. :jerkoff:

    I'm curious on price, as I would likely be interested in the black diamond plated, especially for the front/rear of a DC taco.

    You don't have to be an official vender to sell. Just start a post in the for sell section, but put a link to it back here. Those look awesome!

    If it's too late to be a guinea pig for an extended cab, I will buy a set when you get the pricing set!

    As in rubbage under the DSP on the body. I know things can rub over time, for example even Tacoma fender flares can rub the paint off where they meet the body panels, just curious if you have had anyone come back to you with concerns of that nature. I guess I should really be asking if the foam tape is generously applied underneath near the DSP edges so that it should never happen?:D

    I know I'm not in the top 26 but I would offer to be a test subject to show the durability of these in a salt state. I'm in NY and we're just kicking off salt season. I live in a pretty rural area and my trucks see a ton of sand gravel and salt.

    The dsp's are suspended off the truck body by the attachment strips enough to keep it free of any rubbage. I know this because I changed mine once not long ago in order to take pictures of the non diamond plate version for advertising.

    A slew of pricey stuff my wife hates me for.
    As a tester or not, these are a must and I can't wait to install them.
