sirslayer Posted January 13, 2020 Author Posted January 13, 2020 I manage to redo the front end and grill and the style is more aggressive "truck look".. and II also included the rear 3rd row seats. Still more to come!!

Thirdwigg Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Great job with your continued work on this project. You are making some good improvements, and each iteration has more connection to 8081. As much as I understand the desire to cover the holes on the liftarms, adding tiles on each section distracts from otherwise simple lines. Quote
sirslayer Posted January 14, 2020 Author Posted January 14, 2020 Thank you @Thirdwigg thats ,means a lot!!! I struggle between what I like to see vs what it needs to be and Im starting to get what a true mod is.. Im 47 years old and after going through a 28 year of the "dark ages" I Just started my creative phase and I have many more ideas that seems endless and i've just started. Beside tiles they're many other methods to cover holes (panels) but the cost of adding weight and money is an expense to worry about.. Quote
