STAINLESS again plz You've changed man....

Ill get back onto this asap. Edited 15/05/11 02:28 AM by S3XR6T 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have blown over it with a matt black undercoat and that's about it. Oh I lowered it another 20mm last sat when doing some mods on the exhaust. Got the rear muffler lower so I could drop the tray a bit, replaced the whole section over the diff that was hitting, pulled the cat about 20mm away from the cabin where it was hitting once the zorst heated up with a strategically placed tig weld and fabricated a mount off the gearbox to hold it there. the below pics were taken before it was lowered.Yes the car is dirty Plans are back in full swing on this now, The underneath is to be re cut with the numberplate recess further forward. The rear mudflap will be moved about 20mm forward. The underneath part will continue up to the cabin. Not sure if I will steer it down to meet the bottom of the cabin or just continue straight. There will be some CAD pics soon for some opinions.Am also thinking of the next one stainless round tube with polished floor boards. Company logo routed/cut into the deck with laser cut stainless steel logo dropped into it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon there would be a good polish that would be good for doing it on the tray. or even if u see a ute with floor boards on the tray, ask what they use. ill keep an ear out if I hear anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
