yeah, i understand what you're saying bout the bunk door, but just look at it as an under bunk door.

i also picked up my donor chassis/drivetrain, but it'll be awhile before i post anything bout that. i got some parts i need to get ordered, and a crawler project to finish within the next week. before i really get to show this rig my full attention.

Not going to spoil it for everyone but he snatched up the donor chassis from my boneyard, and is in the home stretch on a JK southern rock bouncer for me. When its done lets see what crawls out of his mind after I bit him with the semi bug

ok, so i'm wanting a custom one off look. so with my sleeper mod out of the way, and Art's jk crawler on hold till i pick the chassis up from powdercoater tomorrow evening, i decided to work on modding my front fenders. i'd already decided on the route i was gonna take, and looking over the PIPE DREAM build, i decided on borrowing his trick wick with the PVC.

i picked up a couple of the PVC peices the other day, and got started on them yesterday, and finished them both up today.

here's a few pics i took along the way.





i wanted this rig to have a real low stance, so i raised the fenders a bit on the hood to help get the look as low as possible.

and here's just a quick mock up pic, to show the stance/ride height i'm shooting for. this is by nomeans the way this truck will look when finished, although it is trying to grow on me.
