    I felt the same way. I couldn’t bring myself to drill into the bed, so I made brackets to mount my SwingCase to the bed rail.

    I was an ejection seat tech.
    Overkill and redundancy for the better, is a trait that has impacted me for life.
    Also, I tow a lot.
    Plus, a bobcat.

    Thanks!

    As my friend said, “It’s the tits!”.

    I love it.
    Going from stock to Toytec was great.
    Going from Toytec to BP-15 bypass was amazing.

    Adding the RAS helped tremendously.
    The bypass completed the package perfectly.

    Rides and feels like a new truck(car).


    I was going to change leaf’s but haven’t gotten there yet.
    Thinking I may not for a while now.

    Love this product! Everything I painted for my interior got hit with this matte clear. Looks great, holds up, doesn't give a shine but definitely looks good.

    I chose it based on the reviews. That's good to hear. Simple enough to use but I dont want to be touching it up all the time. What all did you use it on?

    3d printed vent rings covers that I color matched, steering wheel emblem overlay that I also color matched, tomahawk shifter that I refinished, the chrome shift gate that I color matched, the shifter trim I painted charcoal metallic with SEM trim paint, and chrome cup holder also painted with the charcoal SEM trim paint. That all got the matte clear on it and I've had no issues with it. I have a few more things in work but nothing done yet.
    I did use the gloss clear for the engine bay when I painted my engine cover and extremely happy with the glossy finish in that location. Just didn't want the "shiny" in the cab.

    Thanks! Always appreciate your help.

    This forum is so awesome. I never thought I'd do anything to a vehicle besides maintenance. The fact that people will take time to walk you thru your issues or help you plan mods in detail, is just amazing. Truly happy to be here to use the information and I'm happy to actually add to it here and there!

    Love that bumper.

    There is an angled section covered by the same expanded sheet metal that bezels your fogs. Is that currently, or could that be (relatively easily) used to accommodate ditch lights?
    upload_2022-2-27_11-5-35.jpg
    Also please forgive the lame question I could research on my own; but which manufacturer is that?

    Ditch lights there is a cool idea.
    Would have to make sure winch leaves room.

    Nah I’m going to stick with chrome surround and bulge, I like the contrast and personally don’t like complete white (that could change in the future :D). Have the pioneer DMH-W4660NEX on order!

    Actually going to leave them off for now, that’s a great idea though and if I put them back on I’ll definitely do that.
