Check this one out, it's the best proportioned one I've ever seen. If I remember, it uses sub doors.

I am sure that you already have this pic but this truck looks perfect. If I ever did an extended cab this is what i would have it look like.

I've been tossing around doing that with my 1/2 ton. I was thinking that it sure would be nice if we could just buy a fiberglass one premade.

buy one premade

beefcake: if you could buy one premade then everyone would have it. to make something yourself (even if someone has done it already) is more unique. but then again if you have to tools to mass produce a ex. cab you might be able to make some money.......


Nice truck though, some people do really nice work... if someone didnt know better they might say that it was an factory option
