Raj, I think that's going to look bloody awful IMO best just black hameriting them without the sand and putting this stuff on the top edge much smarter and suited for your purpose and pretty cheap

Sliders are on, they fit like a glove!!! No fitting issues whatsoever apart from it was cold as hell!!! Also the side exit exhaust still fitted. The sliders have completed the car
looking good goes nice with the bumper

I did the supermarket test with my dads car, if someone opens their door and tries to hit the truck their gonna get stopped by the sliders
Ha they makes me look good Glad you like them mate and very nice truck.

Spot on Raj, they do indeed complete the look May I ask how you keep your tyres so clean???
Brian you are a legend! These are quality sliders! Would it be possible to have a set that extend just slightly further to make use as a decent side step too? That said, although it's hard to tell in pics, it seems as if Raj's extend further out than Tams??

Not bad for a newer, them side indicators need a bit tint on now though,

Cheers luke, I keep them clean by using a rough sponge and the secret formula is fairy and cif and make sure its warm
Luke i wouldnt recommend sticking them out any more, mine function pretty well as a side step at the minute
