Stinker tinker time! Along with that is my opinion. Not a fan of the "rice" or mid rocker panel design. The claw marks aren't my style, but they do look kinda cool to me and definitely have that uniqueness you're shooting for. I like the plain look, but if I did something I'd say it'd be the strip along the rocker, not elevated as in the pic.

1 more thought. If you went with the claw marks, I think the front fender stripes would look much better in matching claw design. IMHO

Thoughts on this ? Imagine the fender flares own gray and matte black fender stripes up by the hood.

Somebody else chime in. I'm still undecided on this.

@Ni9mm.... Generally my opinion is if someone wants and likes it on their truck I support it. However, to me this looks like the old dodge guy who is trying to make his truck and travel trailer match.

Your truck looks great as is, this is your truck but it wouldn't be going on my truck no matter what.

Alcohol = honesty. There's my opinion.

$0.02 Chang Chang !

If given the exchange rate that would be $0.024 Cdn.

You ball licker.

LOL just kidding. First it's a boat not a travel trailer. Second, I'm not putting them on my truck. Third, that's not my truck just a render.

Thank everyone for saving me from myself. I wish you all had been there when I was born maybe one of you would have thrown me in the trash can.

Yes alcohol is

I was looking for something that would protect my rockers from paint chipping but don't really want to do line x on a silver truck

Well, sounds like you need to do something that everyone else thinks is Badass. Good luck with that.

Jacobp,
A couple of years ago I saw a metallic Silver Dodge Cummins with exactly matched spray in bedliner...it looked almost as if they had spray painted the silver over the bedliner...however at the edges where they had pulled away the masking edge tape you could see the color was mixed through the spray in bedliner material. (How's that for a run on sentence?)

Yeah I've seen that a couple of times also but I'm afraid I'm not gonna like how it looks and then what do you do. I've got to go by a line x place sometime and see how close they could color match it. Does anybody know how much it cost to get color matched rocker panels sprayed in line x?

I paid $350 a side for rockers in Line-X premium..Not sure how much the color-match would run you.
