Geez, Tracy....anything else you want...Lol!!!
![]() I already had the Tarps in mind, the side gates were an afterthought (thanks Tim), but, they will be done, Gate & Spare Tyre rack is on the list too, As for the Ratchet Tie-Downs....well....I guess they are do-able, will certainly give it a go ![]() ![]() And the Mud Flaps are partially hidden behind the ICC Bar, so, "Marvin" Style is out, unfortunately ![]() Phew.....is that all??? In the meantime, I completed the Front Load Gate and laid down a temporary deck.... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Paul

Thanks Tracy, appreciate the comments
![]() The Diamond Plate has changed the look quite a bit, just gotta put a few scratches and dents around the place to give it that "used" look!! Paul

Been fiddling around again and found a piece of material for a tarp, needs a few stitches here and there, but, I think it will do the job....
