My bad. lol. In all honesty, if you have the ability to bend/roll sheet metal, a roll pan would be extremly simple to make for these trucks.

Rear bumper on a pick up is just far to useful to get rid of it.

Also with the ****ty drivers around here, I like to have that little bit of extra protection, that a roll pan does not provide.

If I didn't live in crazy idiot driver central (NJ roughly 30-40 minutes outside of NYC) I would definitely consider a roll pan. As long as I'm here I'll take all the idiot protection I can get!

That looks great. I've always used herculiner but that stuff works well also with good surface prep.
