Mine got a nice fold in the center of it. So right now im making a custom one. I cut off mounting support parts, and im just going to use some thicker steel and remake the skid part.
Anyway, nice find. I like the paint. Does it seem pretty durable? |
the paint feels like sand paper, I dont know how durable it might be, first time using it. but the skid plate is stock... it'll fold under the first rock, haha. I just couldn't pass it up for 13.95 :D haha it'll be a nice little addition to the front of my 4runner.

Haha the turkey that landed in the backyard

haha yeah the turkey :D figured i'd add that one in.
and yeah, I dont normally need one but like I said, for 13.95 I just couldn't say no to it. I originally went there for manual hubs. heh |

It wont hold up if its hit once. hah

beats me, you uploaded them to your photobucket... lmao
|
k, do that. lemme know when they're fixed haha
|
Nice work ya did. Your gonna go far kid.
|
thank ye thank ye :) I'll be posting pictures of it bolted up tomorrow. its cold as hell outside, plus I have a 2nd tow hook now. :) so it'll look rather neat, i think.
|
alright I fixed the pics there 4x6 now
|
sweet thanks :D
|
damn.. i woulda kept it bare metal and then like clear coated it.. but its looks good anyways.
|
lol polish it? it would've took forever. the beginning stages of the rust would have taken awhile to get out. it looks really good this way though, i'll come over and show you sometime. I was asking matt, "dude should I just keep it like this and just polish it to death?" but nah, i decided on the paint. it looks good.
|
all you would have to do is clear coat it and it wont rust... but its cool how it is
|
well the thing is I didn't wanna spend all that time grinding out the rust spots... covered it with rustoleum primer and hit it with the duplicolor, used a whole can on it. put about 3-4 heavy coats on it.
