looks real good, are these a polished finish, mine aren't, more of a sheen finish

 

I tried bending it some but it wasn't very giving so I just went ahead and notched it out. Just took my time and tried getting it as smooth as possible.

Thanks!

They're kind of just a flat finish. Not too shiny. I don't know how to describe them.

 

ok yours are like mine then, i kinda like it, easier to clean!

 

LOL I Guess. I haven't cleaned anything off of them yet.

 

Some more pictures I took real quick this morning:

Drivers side. The cut-out is even I was just standing to the side:


Passenger side:


Both in all their glory:


Then the final sexyness:


I just realized these came out blurry as hell. Stupid cold weather LOL

 

Looks good, we have similar looking rangers. I am going to do this process to my ranger this weekend. This thread really helps.

 

Yes, old threads do save lives.

 

I didn't want to cut my valence so I cut and welded my Level 2 hooks
