Probably me...I kind of suck at it, but I have a paint booth, and I'm getting better
Figure I can either pay someone to paint it or pay someone to repaint it. Why, wanna make me a killer deal?

I'm stupid about these things, but wouldn't a stock floor drop still bring the roof closer to the floor, taking away headroom? I'd probably leave something like that to you professionals, anyway. I'm really just a stereo / car designer, who likes to play fab guy.

nonetheless, looks good. i never liked the rear side windows on hardbodys. it would be pimp if u could weld in some metal and lower the window top to match the top of the window on the door.
I'm going to use accordian seal between the topper/bed and the cab to keep the water out. Inside will get finished, so you don't see the gap. I'm working on something for the rear windows, but that might be down the road.

I did think about yota hubs, as its a pretty easy swap, but then I came across these wheels, and decided against it.
Thanks for all the input, guys.
