Trying to make the bedsides look like they were always there. Totally winging it. They're pretty hammered so the sheetmetal is almost worthless. I figure if I screw them up not a big deal. Spent too much on them already; blast, primer, paint = duplicolor (cocktail of hugger orange + a shot of white) from local O'rileys Auto paint shelf.

I'm seriously considering a swap to chrome Coys. I like my wheels but maintaining the polished aluminum has been a complete B****!

I just started putting my new trim on and I think I goofed by not filling some of old holes... I put the tailgate trim on today and measured and looked at it forever... then drilled it wrong!:devil:
My clips are a mixture of the metal inserts and some 3m sticky type. What have you got? the stick ons would work well for what your doing I would think.
So you have the ece 4/6 not 4.5/6 correct?? Just trying to figure if i want to block the rear like yours... I want it to sit level.

I went low budget on the mouldings for the time being - part of the fun of it. Trimmed down some LWB pieces with a dremel and used some woodgrain tape, a black sharpie paint pen, and 3M double back trim tape I already had. I wouldn't recommend the trim tape. I lost a piece of moulding on the road and had to turn around and retrieve it! I'm on the hunt for driver quality SWB bed mouldings and ordered the adhesive clips from LMC ($1.95 ea)

4 vs. 4.5? I'm not really sure. I think they only offer one? I measured my ride height in the front before and after and I'm closer to 4" drop but maybe 4-1/4 or so.

I don't have anything new to add, but I really really like the stance on your truck! And the trim looks good

I guess the fitment must be a bit defferent with the Coys over the Ridler 695 and Boss 338. I run a 0 offset all the way around with 20x8.5 and 20x10 in a Ridler 695. Everything fits supreme with my full bagger.
