Well the wheel arch 2x4 has twisted now, so all that work to make it perfect is lost, or maybe not.........
Didn't know this existed. looks like I have another project coming up.

i'm not positive but i think this 2x "board" is made of the same composite deck material, just different color and dimensions.You might also look into a piece of the composite deck material as well. Designed for heavy traffic so might hold up better.
She is right, more often than not less is more... It looks great. Subtle cues are the bestOMG i'm so happy how this turned out. Now I can relax for a bit.
I found that Gladiator helmet on Shutterstock and bought the vector file. My sign guy was able to make the letters from a pretty high res photo I found of an old tailgate.
The matte black "Wayout" wrap looks great with the matte charcoal. I like how its subtle. Makes me think its kind of like a relic from the Roman Era, lol.
My wife said if I made it out of silver it would look "d'baggy". And i don't want to look "d'baggy" so matte charcoal it is!
Tinted front windows and windshield banner, and AVS bug deflector.

Probably a mouse version of dirty Mike and the boys. Only thing missing is the Prius.Most likely hollow. I'd bet he's got thousands of mice in his deckboards having crazy sex orgys that is causing the warping/twisting.
I'd give it a definate maybe on the mouse sex orgy theory.
Wanted to provide a little almost 1 month review of the panels.Holy crap I like Krylon Fusion! I didn’t scotch brite any place that I painted and it adhered solidly. It went on super easy, no drips/streaks/runs. I put on 3 coats of Satin and decided I didn’t like the sheen, so I put 3 coats of matte black on over it. I’m not a paint guy, so I dunno if that mixes them at all or if the matt will completely cover up the satin. After doing this with the first panel, I decided to do the same thing with the 2nd, just in case there was a variation in the final look that would drive me batshit crazy for the rest of my life. 3 coats satin then 3 matte for all panels now……..ugh
HA! you were right about the tats and decals. Don't worry, its getting finished this coming Tuesday. The first 3.5 hours wasn't bad, but the last 90 minutes of the 5 hour session was kinda rough. Hopefully we can just power through the next 3-4 hours, lol........@steffen707 I came on to check out your tattoo bc I've been seeing all of your decals. Told ya tats and decals...... addictive. I see "half done" WTH. Let's go man, finish it up!! BTW your rig is looking great. Did you plan on going all out right away?
I'd say that you already have gone all out, but he'll, you have more planned. Quite the build, impressiveHA! you were right about the tats and decals. Don't worry, its getting finished this coming Tuesday. The first 3.5 hours wasn't bad, but the last 90 minutes of the 5 hour session was kinda rough.

Thanks for the compliment on Gladys. are you saying i've gone "all out", or asking if I plan to still "go all out"?
I did plan all the mods I've done so far to be done within 2-3 months. The last mod I'll do this year is likely to be Roam rock rails, but they're not being produced yet. I'm pretty sure i want an Alu-Cab topper, but @Bobs85Reny and @ralphjjr are cooking up something, so i'll likely wait to see what's for dinner before pulling the trigger on alu-cab.
