    And you must think you're posting a lot more than you really are. Seriously, it's not hard to read your 1-2 sentence long posts.

    Let us review your long post piece by piece.

    I replied to you that I don't go off-road. I don't hit trails and even if I did, it isn't the stock skid plate. Yeah, guess I didn't read this part of your post.

    I replied that it was my truck and I don't give a fuck what you think and repeated that my truck DOESN'T GO OFF-ROAD AND I HAVE NO INTENTIONS OF IT EVER BEING SCRATCHED SO STFU ALREADY. (But I was much more polite and civil about it.)

    So really....which one of us isn't reading the other's entire posts? Because I keep having to repeat the same thing to you over and over. So let me repeat it again in words you may understand.

    Dis here skid plate ain't neva gun see knee offa-the-roading ackshun so itdunn matta dat it slapped wiff paint cuzz it ain't neva gon get scratched.

    j/k ;)

    But seriously, my truck doesn't go off-road. It won't ever get scratched. Deal with it.

    Haha, you are definitely crazy man. I haven't "bitched" at all, so maybe you should rephrase your post huh?

    Also, there is no rules or books that list "acceptable" modifications so don't be a jackass. So far the people that are saying that they don't like it, that is their opinion just like you have yours, why would I bitch about their opinion dude? What I did is considered a modification, any physical change would be. So please go back and read my post, I didn't "bitch" about anyone's opinion and the only one that looks like a jerk in this instance would be you, strictly due to the fact that you have brought anything of any substance to this thread.

    If you don't have anything intelligent to say then please leave the thread.

    Calm down Lance Tardstrong. I tried to be civil with you and thought you could handle a little joking and ball busting since you were obviously busting mine. But obviously you aren't as mature as I thought you were. My bad.

    WordS.

    What's that? Oh, is that me letting you know that my skid plate will do what you were so nice as to define for all of us, but then also letting you know that I don't go off-road? Oh, yeah...I think that's exactly what I did.

    And here I am agreeing with you that IF I were to off-road, my skid plate wouldn't be all "glamoured" up as you said. Which I take full responsibility for this one. I figured you could put 2 and 2 together and complete the statement on your own. Which would have been "But since I don't go off-road I chose to go with a nice looking skid plate." I apologize that I gave you way too much credit. I should have spelled everything out for you.

    As for the 2 cents comment, the OP DID ask for opinions and I offered up ASSISTANCE to a fellow TW member. Then you jumped in the thread and chimed in on my post. I never said anything bad about your truck, in fact I think yours looks pretty dope. I never fucking asked for your $0.02 though. So STFU. Or you can try to come back and look like a cool guy in front of your peers. But honestly, I hate shit talking on the internet and hate that this has gotten this far. I won't be responding to you anymore in this thread since that is not the purpose for this thread. Let this get back on topic. If you have anything else to add, then PM me, but I doubt you will since no one can see you be "cool" and talk shit to the "mall crawler".

    OP, if you have any questions about wrapping that skid or how I did it, shoot me a PM. I'd be glad to help out.

    I think it looks pretty good but would look better with the TRD OEM skid plate. Good job though!!!;)

    Looks fine OP. Dont know if it was worth it, but it does look good. 1st mods tend to be that way. Now that you've got the first one down, its time for MORE!! Be careful, its addicting

    First mod on this vehicle ;)

    Loving the truck, weather-tech mats are coming from autoanything when they ship between the 12th-15th, afe shortly after, my short girlfriend is buying me nerf bars (I don't off-road, I do whoever drive down plenty of dirt roads but the area here is extremely flat), I'm going to paint my stock wheels gunmetal due to bubbling of the silver on them currently :(

    Plenty lined up after that :)
