yea, those bits are already toast, i've had to hand sharpen them both twice in last two days! have no complaints about em tho, they have lasted thru over 200 cuts so far. purchased from VAN SANT TRICK TOOLS, highly recommend their slug cutters!

soon to order complete dimple collection to add to my current set and matching slugcutters, too bad almost done with the buggy. (guess just start another one, hehe.):beer:
 
you need to get her off your mind and go drill some holes.....................................................................................................................................................................in sheet metal:flipoff2:
 
Check in Google images or Bing images for some ideas.They have all kinds of stuff in there to give ya some design and color ideas.I typed in skulls and it brought up a lot of stuff.
 
Yeah i'm really diggin the green flames, and also the terminator skull for some reason kinda sticks out as being different.
 
no physical progress today, but got a few things scheduled. spoke with billy at alliance hose, very knowledgable guy, set up some time to get plumbing done. also spoke with a graphic designer in winston, set up paint and design with him for week after next. getting very excited about being close to finishing, its been a long four months! i'm pretty sold on the green flames and skull that blownjk posted, they are hot. so its crunch time and up to me to get all the fab done in next 10 days....whew, gonna be tough.

also stopped by RIDES today, they're almost done with my 60, and warrior welding is almost done with the shave kit on the 14. all great friends and vendors doin great work. cheers:beer:

recieved all my lighting today, redneck neons, vision-x extreme led floods, and baja design interior led.

thanks for the compliments and help with exterior design ideas guys.

progress coming tomorrow night and probably every night next week!

Stopped by rides today, almost done with gear swaps and Reid knuckle install.

Also went to firetoys place and the Mr. Ed buggy is looking badass.

Awesome Matt! I am going to have to look into that shave on the 14T. Diggin it!
 
Thanks guffey, hope to see yours on the trail this year soon buddy.

Cannon, it is exposed but no less safe their than underneath, plus no laye on backe to change out spare. U probably never saw the one on my yj but it was in driver rear fender no more coverage than this. Hell most of the rocks be flying waaaayyy behind me mang, shit.
