My nerf bars are from www.truckchamp.com believe they were like 170 shipped...

 

oh and this is the best side pic i have...

 

heres one in a CC Laramie 4x4

 

Yes, it's Austin Tan (photo color a little difficult with all the white glare but heavy overcast).
The body shop thinks they'll be done today. We'll see...

My concern is that almost every body gap forward of the A-pillars was messed up slightly. Replacing the hood and the one fender should fix that for top and one side, assuming none of the underlying mounting points deformed, but are the other minor "mis-gaps" going to spring back into place properly ?? And how many of the plastic pieces have little cracks that will come to haunt me years down the road ?? I trust the body shop will do a good job - experienced their work 7-8yrs ago with an old Dakota. But...

I'm also interested to hear what they do with that big chunk of aluminum - the hood - since aluminum goes for $0.75-0.85/lb. Hmmm...

 

@rolltide - looks like you've got the same color and package as me. Is that also a RamBox ?? And the same Mopar Extended Side Rails ?? How far did you have to drive to find the snow in left photo ??

 

are you going to upgrade to the challenger hood?

 

yeah they are the wheel to wheel model, went to tennessee last year with my kids and caught the late snow storm at the end of march, then on the way home a week later was trying to not get outflanked by tornados and hail, the hail caught me in red top mtn. georgia, had my wife and two kids and the yamaha grizzly 660 in the back, no rambox, have the bakflip f1 with elect tailgate lock, ipod cable, rear cam.

 

Naw...
$100 Deductible for Insurance to cover P&L for an exact replacement (Dodge Distributor is Price-Matching most 3rd Party Sources!!), or pay many times more for the mod...
Challenger Hood doesn't rate that high in my books..
Just wanted my truck back - got more plans to go out driving and playing with it !!
