    Im stoked man I cant wait to get em on there. Anyone know how long it usually takes to build them? Im picking them up as soon as he lets me know they are done. Also what does it run for powder coating?

    About 2 weeks, I just got mine and in the process of painting them. As far as powder coating goes, im not sure but if you plan on using the sliders, you would probably be better off rattle canning it.

    Im in the process of using rustoleum bedliner in a spray can just cause many have used it on here. Cant say how it turned out yet cause im still priming them but I have heard that it can chip but I figure ill just have an extra can on hand to touch up anything.

    Dude it was only $500 for the sliders and light bar. The shipping is what kills you....im picking mine up as soon as Brandon lets me know they are done. If you ever make a road trip to AZ you can save yourself some good money and will call them.

    I know, I tried calling yesterday to get a quote on shipping to see what the total price would be but got voicemail. I think this will have to wait till after the holidays. I wish there was a similar business closer to me.
