SS Silv Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 (edited) The other day I was really bored, and it looked like my truck needed a little something. I happened to have some chrome rocker panel lain around, so I cut some 3/4" strips with our shear at the shop and also used a tin snips to cut 4 smaller peices so they would fit around the brake duct. It doesn't look perfect, but I think it added a nice touch. I still wish they whole duct was chrome, but I will have to settle with this for now.

I didn't say it looked perfect. I am going to re-due the top strip so it is more flush.

FireRescueSS Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Hell, I like it, perfer it actually. I just think the home made modifications look better then store bought anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
