But to be if there is a cut out for the hitch it defeats the purpose of having a roll pan....to smooth out the rear end. Another thing is I think the hide away hitchs can't carry as much and if you are backing up to a trailer 1 man I only dent my tag which I care nothing about, how would it go with a roll pan? I usually do pretty good and try to have someone helping me but **** happens and with my truck it sits so high and with a car trailer it is very hard to see backing up

that roll pan i posted has a cut out for a hitch.

when i was thinking about putting it on i found a hidden hitch that would pull the same amount of weight as the stock one. flip up plate, you'd never see it.

Nice *** you got there

Couple questions

1)what width are those tires?
2)What rims are those? 18s I'm assuming?
3)What tint % is that on your front windows


Thanks

Michael

Shouldn't have to cut anything to fit a sir mikes pan up, don't know about others but doubt you have to either. My sir mikes pan went straight on with no mods.

As for the tailgate plastic, I pulled the stock piece off and put on a smooth paintable piece just to cover the holes left from the stock cap. You can order the x2000 that covers the stock cap, but I didn't like that look so I ordered it without the cap and cut straight across the back instead of the drop down to cover the holes. Hope that all makes sense
