I like the way that looks. Is that just a stock spare tire carrier? What did it take to install it on your 4-door? I have been thinking about doing that.

good luck to you and your project. Not really my cup of tea but I also hate the way the avalanches look.... To each his own..... hope it turns out just like you want it to... Oh and welcome to the site bro.

Nice! I admire your ambition. I'd never have the sack to do any major body work like that. Please keep us updated!

That shark concept is badass!
