Notice: Only cool people dress in the same color as their truck, lol.

Maybe a molded to the hood contours 6" wide strip/bug sheild to match?

 

[brandon mena]

LOL I know, I mostly just do things to try them out anyhow. As for the dirt I was offroading it a bit this morning. I say if it's big and ugly, make it as ugly as possible, lol.



A bugshield would be kinda cool but getting the material to fit contours that are rounded and whatnot is nearly impossible. That's why I haven't made a fuel door cover yet.

Brandon do your step plates on your rear bumper also ..

 

[Travis Munday]

Do the step plates and nix the tailgate. It doesn't flow into anything else and looks added on and cheesy.

I want to see a diamond plated sport trac, like everything, no paint.

I could see the point on the rocker panels...for offroad protection, but not for the tailgate.

 

[EddieS'04]

Nope!!!!

 

[Jerry Jackson]

Hey man! Great idea but i think the color might not be the best for it:

Good job non the less

COPPER...USE COPPER! Cover the entire vehicle!!! Or CHROME?!? WHOO HOO!

 

[Rhonda Lewis]

Nah!! Just doesn't look right........but hey, at least u tried!!!!

 

[brandon mena]

Oh don't worry guys, it's just testing purposes. I had extra material and felt curious. Plus that part is really scratched up and was missing the ford emblem anyway. I know it sticks out like a sore thumb. I want to see what I can do with this material though that may benefit some of you guys. I mean, someone with alot of crome accents could pull it off. Eh, that's what experimenting with your truck is for.

One more vote for the step plates, and maybe replace the inside plastic tailgate cover with it.







Obviously you have a brake or have access to a brake? The bend looks straight. Nice work!

Chops,



From a previous post by Brandon:

it is a type of vinyl but very metallic. It's dosent form fit and has to be handled very precisely. Almost like a foil or very thin sheet aluminum.

FYI

Diamond plate is not my cup of tea but I gotta give props for the work you did. Looks unique.

I understand about dressing in the same color as the ST. I didn't realize that I have the same color jacket as my ST.

I saw one a few years ago, white as I recall, and the whole outside of the bed was diamond plate.

The huge Red Bull can mounted in the bed and angled over the cab caught more attention I think.
