well , the more i look at the first pics there might be something there on something that is low with white walls..........

*lakeroadster* · 10-23-2010, 08:50 AM

Skirts on trucks are a bit too much, IMO, I vote no..

Good effort though on your part to get a visual.

That wouldn't matter either. White walls only belong on a car that fender skirts belong on. If there's no tail fins or chopped tops, then forget it.

I like it alot go for it.

mooseknuckles · 10-23-2010, 02:51 PM

If your going to put fender skirts on it you might as well put on a visor and add a sun roof, maybe a bug deflector on the front too!

Malo83 · 10-23-2010, 03:01 PM

Go for it, different than all the cookie cutter trucks you see everyday

81ratrodc10 · 10-23-2010, 03:04 PM

def wasnt the reaction i was expecting but i still think i like them havnt decided yet

Pop's C-10 · 10-23-2010, 03:26 PM

add some wide white's...drop tha back more...loose tha euros & rock'em...it won't casy much coin tha fab some out of scrap & see how they look in body color..

Hubscrub · 10-23-2010, 05:36 PM

yea if you want them do it all the stuff people do came from somebody starting it

GMC87 · 10-23-2010, 05:43 PM

It would have a kinda retro cadi look...........not bad if done right, truck lowered as mentioned before white walls.........you might pull it off.

Most of all its your truck, rock it if you like it!!

There is probably a reason their out of business.

Davidmichael · 10-24-2010, 07:14 AM

Good a reason as any! I originally said no, but I agree with the "cookie cutter" statement as well. There are tons of "stamped" examples on the site. Not that it's a bad thing. Not bashing, just sayin'.
