Still much finishing to do, rear bumper, finish lights and inside wire covers, last coat of paint then future add ons like a gull wing flat top and a canopy
 
That looks cool man what size tires you running
 
now u just need to make it a dump bed and through some duely boggers under that o.O
 
Bed looks really good, and I am in aggreement with the fender trimming comment lol, Why so much? looks like you could go up in size a few inches in the trire area and still have no clearance issues lol.

Good work
:icon_cheers:

used the easiest template available, the factor fender flairs, just cut right outside of them.... plus i just got my new plasma cutter that day and got a little carried away
 
looks badass I like it
 
Your gonna wish you made the rear wheel wells bigger after the first outing on the trail.....aside from that, good job!
