I guess you are an artist too? Usually I charge a few hundred for a photo edit of that quality. Business has been slow tho (dunno why?), so I figured I would do Grip's for free.

I did a 5 minute chop... hope this is close enough to see a difference...


I think I am closer to a 4/6 drop... oh well, you get the idea...

I wonder if the ss cladding would help hide the frame more.

oh yeah, do the cladding it'll cover almost 2" of that frame. An 8 Lug Silverbirch SS clone would be the shiz.

Oddly enough I agree about the cladding. I'm not one for adding weight or even ground effects, but It would like bad *** with the SS cladding and HD badges made in the same font as the SS. Leave off the 2500 part and just do the HD letters. Wait, I don't need to think of another project for him. lol. I haven't driven to Cali yet other than just past the boarder, I'd help if I can Grippy. How far are you from the boarder?
