Thanks Joe. I had to see what they would look like on here and now I need to make another set for this truck!lol The last set took me several days to make so I'm not sure when I'll get them done for this truck. Might not be until the fall
. I did order some tires for it this week though

The ribs on the doors are just glued on as are the other details. It is aluminum filler rod carefully ground on the backside to be flat and just slightly less than half of the original thickness. Believe it or not, CA glue does a pretty good job of holding this stuff in place. You just need to rough things up a bit and use multiple applications of the glue to fill every gap completely.
I hope to have some more updates in the next couple of days.
