ArmorThaned Cladding!
« on: July 29, 2011, 09:43:59 AM »
Hopefully attached are a few pics of my cladding after being ArmorThaned, This is pretty much like Line-X. I decided to do this after I was side swiped, the ladies insurance cut me a check and I had to replace one piece of cladding but it didn't match the rest so decided to do this. I'm only doing a few pieces of cladding at a time because it is quite costly, this will be an ongoing thread. Enjoy.

More pics. The rear bumper cover with the 7 pin trailer plug removed from the receiver and moved up to the bumper.  I also removed the piece of cladding from the right side of the receiver, now I have room for additional reverse lights! Also is a pic of the running boards, I've repaired them and had them sprayed as well.

Speaking of mods, did you ever get the brackets for the over-the-bed panels basket done? Or is that a sore subject? I'm thinking that would be a good mod to enable me to carry more "stuff" back and forth to the farm. I never have enough room to carry everything I need to take.

Update, I was able to get the Cladding back on the front doors and the piece on the rear driver side door at Bratfest. I installed the passenger side rear door on Monday.
