builds looking good. word of advice though. never prime to a solid tape line. longstory short, you think the tapeline is sanded out but its not. from certain angles youll still see it when its painted. cover the body work up and then pull the paper back if that makes anysense. other then that. looks real good man.

i agree 100% with you the reason for the tape was to keep me focus on that area i tend to wonder off when i dont do it like that but i will be sanding and primering a couple of times before i lay the paint down but yeah i know what you are talking about.

wish i could weld
welding is pretty easy just get one and some metal and go for it thats how i learn to weld.
well what's up guys thank you for the complements i did some test fitting on the skirts they fit pretty good now i just got to prep them for paint and by the looks of it i will definitely need one of the following (1) 2'' drop (2) bigger rims
(3) air bags or maybe two out the three will see here some pics

Looks good man!! The welding is a pretty easy deal, if you havea steady hand and patiences for it!! Its an art!!

what size wheels are those? 4s? If so Id just get some smaller rubber, and lower it another 2"s!! Or bag it on 6s! Either way still looks pretty dope as it stands now! Nothing looks out of place! But I agree looks a little high with those skirts vrs. the factory running boards!!
