    I agree man anything I have painted with rattle can that was metal eventually just comes off. My skids got torn up pretty fast, but that’s expected. My sliders came pc and still look great. Part of me wishes my mid and rear skids were pc since they don’t see a lot of shit like the front does.

    Yeah that's true. I'm repainting my stuff frequently enough that the time factor doesn't really come into effect. Serious question though, and don't take this the wrong way, but why even have the skids if you don't wheel? Or were you planning on selling and not replacing (I can't keep up).

    I do agree with this man. I mean aluminum skids alone are expensive. If I had no care for wheeling although I averaged twice a year...yea I would just roll naked with a teenage mutant ninja turtle beach towel for boxers on the truck.

    They're paper mache so they don't really come off

    Rattle can. That one fit in the blasting cabinet so it turned out killer.
