More rock slides

It started because my wife is a bit short one end and then I had to protect this as well. One of three long range tanks. 250 litres in total.


Front mount


Rear mount


Middle mount


Finished product on the passenger side


OK, so I creased the side step, but aluminium checkerplate should hide it.

It would want to be spotless and have no mig tails in there.... getting it clean would be near impossible.... and if you filtered it, how many filters will you block b4 it becomes clean???
