Looks great Nick. Did you mask the bedliner? I see a bit of overspray on it.

And just as a feeler, I might be able to get a group buy on the hood louvers... They are quite expensive, but the guy that sells them is super nice and you get instructions and all the hardware to install them. If anyone is interested, pm me. The ones i got are close to 200 bucks for the pair...

Nick by far the best looking truck. I came in half way through the build so didn't catch this. But did you have the cage certified before painting it? I know for strip racing you must have a certified cage. Don't know what the rules are for auto cross racing...

But like all have said before me this truck is looking completly sexy. I love the color choice... WHen I finally decide that the ranger needs a fixing of some paint love, I am rolling to NC to you for a new color. You have done amazing work on your own vehicle and want some of that love on mine....
