Couple sneak peeks for my 5-lug
#32
I had to replace them, so i took good stock ones off a car and left 3/4" of a lip on them, then welded them to where the stock ones roll off, adding close to 1", then i welded 1x1 tube along the inside of the pinch weld for a jacking rail, then a chunk of body metal between the square tube and new cut rocker. Took a crapload of work to do, but they're mint now, useful and both stock and modified. It worked out when i made the rear wheel arches meet up with the rocker, looks totally like something the factory would have done. Way better than the RS sideskirts. As for the molds, i actually used the mold i popped off as the rear quarters, so i dont have any leftover fibreglass parts. All in all, it was a massive project that still isnt done, but has some light at the end of the tunnel. Far cry from where it came from:
