ok, y'all win. I ordered a 4' x 8' sheet of .063" diamond plate today. I also con'd use of the shop wed of next week. Gonna punch a new winch mount plate out of the DP, make a set of grill inserts out of the polished stuff with bullet holes (not sure of hole size yet), make a matching insert for the scoop. So I'll have roughly 70% of the diamond plate sheet left. Any ideas?

Sorry Silver, I didn't see that I guess. You could make some cool engine dress up stuff. Like in the February totm thread Jim's SRT-10 has some cool plates that go on the rad and fuse box. You could punch stuff like that out with it?

Yeah. Make a skid plate for the front of my truck!
