Man, you didn't cut 'n' fold the rear quarters--that's what all the cool kids are doing.

Ha ha--it does look good. I just think getting rid of the lower quarters is a good idea as they are pretty easy to hit. There are some nice bumpers that wrap around to help protect this area as well--that's what I plan to do eventually. In the mean time, I don't think the folded look is all that bad.

I bet you're gonna have to cut the fronts out about another 1" all around to stop rubbing when flexed. Other than that the trim looks good.

No, it looks manly and tough!

To each his own--that's what makes all this interesting.
