I don't think it is. It will help reduce road noise and keep rocks from removing paint and such will cause rust later. I under coated my cab and plan to spray a liner on my bed floor too. By the way, your bumper mod looks sweet!

That is a nice touch on the bumper tuck, makes me want to dump my Rollpan and go back to a bumper. Anybody have any idea on a rear tailight fuel fill, it would be nicer than the spout coming out of my rear wheel well.

Thank you - still deciding on the side profile. It seems off.

Looking good, I like the welded gate and the bumper mod, dont see that bumper mod every day. Is that a whole tailgate or did you cut the skin off and just weld it in ? If it is a whole gate are they going to weld the upright seams on the inside of the bed too ? keep on pluggin away and you'll be hauling parts in that "work truck" soon.

Long day, 16 hours at work and my memory is toast for today. I could not remember the question. Tail gate is fully welded in because the bed floor has been raised. It is an entire tail gate. I had one direction in mind then it went sideways. In a very good way I might add.

The bumper, it is different and retains the original idea. Clean up the lines, keep the body lines stock and make it low.

Thanks for looking!

And thank you for page eight!

I like the bumper mod, but would flatten the ends to match the smooth sheetmetal.
