I made some nerf bars for the rear of my truck. Tell me what you think. Should they stay or should they go? I hope this works I have'nt posted a picture before. John

Looks like you took your time and did a good job making them, but they kinda look like skis sticking out from under your truck. $.02

Actually looks good, but Its something that I wouldn't mess with. All I would really look into doing is getting your reciever hitch up a tad higher. Just my .02

I like them...retro look! Some guys don't remember when they were the thing in front and the back with roll pans. BTW where did you get the roll pan? Does it bolt in or can it be welded as well?

The roll pan came from Tuckers Parts here in Vegas. They have a link on the resource page.

My straight up opinion.I dont care for them,but im one of the few who wouldnt put a rollpan on my truck.They arent ugly but id lose them.unless your worried about bumping something with your pan.

Nice truck - as for the bars I would say no, but thats because to me I love the clean lines a roll pan gives and those bars sticking out seems to mess that up somehow

Here's how I see it...... People put on roll pans to clean up the bumper area, to give it a more smooth look. By adding those bars, it kind of defeats the purpose of the pan. But is is you truck, so do you want.

hafta say it looks a lot cleaner without em, but it does provide some measure of protection, and I think that's what you were goin' for, so I'd keep em.... they would blend better in my opinion, if you could paint em the EXACT color as the truck, they're a bit whiter which makes em stick out more.... my .02
