Just dropped off my evo skins and hard rock cage to the powder coating shop he said he'd have it done this afternoon.

The cage install is coming along, I'm really happy with the white powdercoat.

Don't you worry Panda, I'm sure I'll let you cut away when the lift starts!

Can't please everyone my friend. The important thing is YOU like it.

Skins look good too! Are you doing the tire carrier in white also?

Makes me wish I lived out west. I'd love to body match my armor and do silver powdercoat on my bumpers, but northeast winters make powdercoat bubble up.

Looking forward to seeing more pics as you progress.

You realize the glare on that lower bar is going to be ridiculous right?

I asked around about this and was told it would be ok. If it becomes a problem I'll do it in flat white.

One side complete including the timing of the upper trim molding.
Just need to finish the passenger side and install the rear harness bars.
