For front fenders I will find a way to bolt em down and reinforce them with tube fenders and plating. That will be a spring project at a buddies shop (plasma/welder/bender)...

Had to drill and pound the driver side to get it flat enough to nutsert and then knock down the high spots..
Have to repaint the driver side armor bit I'm going to strip them back weld the tubes and then paint.

Mounted my SPOD yesterday. Easy install. Took me longer to pull all my old existing aux wiring, relays, fuses, etc. and reroute the lights to the SPOD location. Time consuming, but there's no longer a spiderweb of wires everywhere.

Did my door skins on the smittybilt tube doors, don't need to look through them they are cut so low I can see where my jeeps at on the rocks.

Plus it'll help keep a bit more junk out.







Here's a shot before the skins , I can always pull rivets but wanted half doors to begin with but not at the half door price. I'm going to rhino line or sound deaden the aluminum this week...

Looks great! Always thought the SB tube doors would make for a good base for skins...even thought you might be able to paint them body color and it's look good as well. Nice job hows the quality of the doors? Did they install easily and do they close securely? Thanks for sharing!
