I really like them as well. I think with the hd front on it it will look 10 years younger as well. Been working on the sideskirts but they are super time consuming. Also I realized when sanding the abs plastic it makes it kind of fuzzy in texture vs the stock stippled looking texture so I might have to figure out an alternative primer or something to fix that. On the other hand it’s basically towards the bottom so you might not really ever notice it. I’ll get the passenger side one and start mounting them up to see and I can always put more work into them later down the road.

In the paint/body tech world's jargon... It's called "off the crown". The crown is where your eyes hit when you're walking around a vehicle ie: the hood, top of the fenders, top of the doors, top of the quarters and deck lid. This is a common phrase used in a body shop... "It's off the crown, I wouldn't worry about it"
I was hoping you’d chime in with something like that. I was reading through your thread this morning for a bit and saw you were a paint and body guy, something I’ve never been very good at. They aren’t perfect but I don’t think they will bug me too much and at least the holes for the nerf bar mounts will be filled. I’m excited to see how it looks with them on because right now the front lip sits about 4-5” lower then the sides do and it drives me a little nuts, these should level it out and make it look lower overall. By the way just saw your trump MAGA 2020 thing, me along with just about everyone I know is voting for trump here in Oregon. Even my Mexican buddies which originally hated him in 2016 because of the bs press. I really hope he wins next week.
Sweet I like it. While waiting on some stuff to set on the sideskirts today I decided to delete the rear wiper. Never been a fan of them. They make washing the trunk a pain and I never use it anyways. Went to ace hardware and found plugs for the 1”1/8 hole as well as the 3 1/4” holes. Part number for the smaller plugs is 58125b and for the larger plug is 58175b. Painting them with some touch up paint so they will blend in nice and shouldn’t be very noticeable.
