pan came in mail today from raw . took about 3 weeks from order to door . people complain about the fit i know its not 100% perfect but its a decent fit i dont see why people complain about this company this is the second custom fiberglass piece i ordered and they were both good. i know they need full body prep and a full coat of bondo to make perfect but what do you expect on a 1 off piece here are pics

Yea really... why wouldnt' you go with a steel rool pan for this project.... especially for a daily driver I would want the best/strongest parts available. :dunno:

Just a thought

It all crushes the same man, Its that big ass steel crossmember that makes the difference. A thin steel rollpan isnt gonna matter anymore than a fiberglass one in any impact situation. Just my two cents ..

Pan looks good but my favorite part has gotta be the hinged tail light.. thats pretty sweet :cool: Haha.. shows how easy it is to impress me..

Yea of course if you get wacked hard from behind whatever you have is going to be jacked... The last pan i had on my truck was fiberglass... and was bearly bumped by a golf cart wheel when it was at the shop.... cracked and warped it really bad... i know a steel pan would have been bent up a little maby, but i'd rather fix a little bend here or there compaired to a cracked fiberglass pan.

Especially when it comes to the sides where it's attached to the rear fenders... a little bump and you will have cracks down each side, like in my case... Weld in a steel one and you don't have that problem...

I just would have thought with all the time and money put into this truck and the last truck it would have been done the more professional way. It's the little stuff that matters.
