do you really want a rounded fenderwell when the body is so boxy?

i've gone back and forth on this a ba gillion times.

The front clip is very rounded re fenders and front cover. I've played with the square style inner fenders and they seem to boxy.

so really i'm on the fence on this one

i think the rounded fenderwells should do the trick, if you made them boxy, it would look awkward, IMO

The boxy inner fenders do look akward.
Is that a FRAM filter???

Do you ever just sit back and look at this project and say "Damn!"

Because that is what I do every time I look at this thread. :tup:

But as the commercials say... "There’s a Visine for that." You just need to share the bottle on the cowl with her!!!

Well, it was another Good Day - No blood or trips to the Hospital.

I was able to get the last piece of Cladding on the truck without hurting myself and I used the drill.

Jared was Kind enough to send me some Kick Panel Speaker Pods.
I'm going to have to build something similar with a smaller speaker to clear the roll bar.

You can kind of get an idea of what i am going for

Hard to tell from the side but this will have rounded or rolled sides

Quick shot of the drivers side leaving the turbo

I'm taken back by this truck everytime I look at it. :tup:

Those speaker pods have me wondering if I can even use something similar in my truck. Remember I have that extra peddle over there and there doesn't appear to be alot of room in that pic...
