Finally got some time to myself last night. Some good beer and a few hours later I cut up my fangs and welded the bottom couple of inches back on the truck to give a more finished look.

thanks everybody for the kind words. I sill have to put a layer of body filler over the welds. its pretty damn smooth but not perfect.

level of difficulty...not very hard. I ran out of argon for my welder so I had to use flux core wire and no gas so a little more care was needed. its super thin metal so just make sure welder isn't too hot. total job this far took 2-3 hours. the most time consuming parts is grinding the bottom piece to fit as tightly as you can to the upper piece.

thanks again

Looks great! Almost as if the factory did it that way initially.
