Kaiser - love this idea for a contest. There are some great write ups out there, and now they will be all in one place.

Might I make two suggestions....

1 - extend the voting until a later date into January. The DIY write ups will take a bit more time to evaluate before voting and during the holidays, time is at a crunch. Perhaps till 1/7 or 1/15?

2 - unofficially announce what the ROTM for January will be so our military leave guys can get some pics in around the holidays while they are at home. Or send them a PM.

Looking forward to the write ups. I've done a few and I know they take a good bit of effort with photos and detail.

Later,
Joe

1 - I think we can do that. I like the 7th.
2 - I will mention it to Ironman and Raptizzle. That is a good idea.

I built my own bumper (looks like crap imo), bed cage from ideas on here. theyre not for a raptor but for my F150 nonetheless that count?

Sure. Post it up. Anything for a regular F105 will still provide good ideas and most things will carry over directly.

So, ADD made the bumper for Raptizzle, I bought it from him and it didnt fit. Had to cut the top off, rework it and weld it back together. Does this count as a DIY?
