I would just keep the door cladding. Seems like the least likely problem there. The bed fenders and front fenders take up the majority of the cladding anyway. Front and back bumper covers are made of different material anyway.

if he makes those fenders then he may as well make cladding

That's great, good luck on the molds. Where did you meet Shaun?

Actually met him at my house. He lives in South Lake Tahoe about 45 minutes up the mountain.

Congrads on the purchase.

So what is Shawn doing with his truck if you bought the fenders and wheels

It's still for sell. These are spares that I purchased. Shaun is looking for $100K. He has $200,000 into the truck. 50 cents on the dollar seems reasonable.

Uh doesn't kaminari make some pretty ghetto poor fitting ricer stuff? Then again it's not like the oem stuff fit well either.

Not according to their web site. Not that means anything.

If you want to come out here and build the molds locally I can do that. No way I'm taking my eyes off these fenders and ship them out of town as I'll probably never see them again.

With the oem cladding parts running out it sure would be nice to have these as an alternative.

That will look badass. Are you just going to make a badass truck to cruise in or do you plan to race it yourself?

Wow, that would be a HUGE mold :eek:. The price of the stock to cut *one* mold plus the design/machine time would be the down payment on a house easy. The table on the CNC I operate has a machining window of 64" X 32".


I have never had to cut something close to that size in that mill. On the other one that's a different story. When the boss starts taking measurements around the mill, things usually get "interesting"

I hope that something materializes out of this. Just for some friendly FYI, How much more does the "wide" fenders protrude over the stock ones? And is the draft angle close to the same?
