The center plate looks good , I would rough up the finish to make sure it sticks better. Could use 3M double side film tape.

I hope your trailer is better than mine , I have have few problems, fit and finish isn't the best, the coating isn't sticking and the screws were coated over and the 1 drop leg don't work very well.

Is the large plate above the axles too much?

what kind of glue and prep would be recommended? the trailer is powdercoated?

Thanks for looking and dont be shy with any suggestions or comments.

In this pic the rear bar of the trailer looks like it has a shiney piece of aluminum or sheet metal.. i think if you add that to it as well with the decking the way you have it it would look killer and fit behind king bling perfect ;) I think it looks great! Dont forget to add your reflective tape :)

I like the diamond plate. looks good. The tread on those trailer tires look more like drive tires for the truck rather than trailer tire. If they're the same size try swapping them to your truck and the truck tires to your trailer and see what it looks like. Congats to you and mamma on S&M trucking.

i also like the diamond plateing. it breaks it up forsure then just all black. add some d.o.t tape and that will also help alot and real affect. favorite part is forsure the tires. nice trailer

Hey SuperMario! just found an even easier way of painting the lettering on your tires, and its not messy! im currently using a Pilot super fine paint pen, got them at Staples, and I have them in silver and gold! the silver looks awesome! i tried the gold, looks great but not for my cab. gold would look awesome on your metallic King, and the silver on your wifes King! so easy to put on compared to the method i was using with the Tamiya paint and brush! when you apply the pen start at the top inside the letter, just let it run very slightly, it will fill the letter! when you have painted the logo TAMIYA, run your finger gently over the letters, this will remove the paint from the edges of each letter. to tidy it up, just use a pilot black permanent fine tip over the edges. looks amazing dude!

your welcome, they are about 3 bucks each! they dont sell they white paint pens. only online, but i must admit, the silver is awesome! gold will look wicked on your King for sure! oh one more tip, practice on the inside tire walls first before you do the main outside ones, that way you can practice lol, and do them in silver and the gold, then decide which colour will lokk good for your trucks! my 2 cents is on the gold for yours though!!!
