It has been some time since my last update so here goes.
Had one modified grill from my old F350 lying around and decided to mount it on my Burban for the Mad Max look:





Bought some Axial jeep Rubicon fenders for my jeep but it ends up on my Burban, look rather nice, now I can mount new bigger tires underneath.




So now doing some "blend in weathering", thanks for watching.

Thanks people, here's some further update, got de fender and bar weathered so they could blend in with the rest of the body. Not quite finish, underneath the fender needs to be more dirty and awaiting for new rim and tire upgrades, from 1.55 to 1.9 mud thrasher.

Like to share some pictures of my Burban, testing my hardware after some cosmetic upgrade. Here standing on 4 Proline Flat Iron 1.9 she looks rather good, overall excellent grip making hill climbing a piece of cake.

Just saw this for the first time. Really like the aged and weathered look. Could pass for a 1:1.

the JK fenders look too modern on that body.

S.D.I 4x4 has some flares that would look better. and a good price too.

very durable

How did I miss this little detail????????????? X2. I'm a scale nut and I would totally agree, the flares just aren't correct for this build's perfection. I would look into those. How the beep did I miss this?

Well I didn't miss this one, we did test fitted before but it didn't gave me that " hmmm I like" feeling to it.



Agree, the jk jeep fender are not "correct" but I like try a new look.

hmm yeah they aren't "perfect" on there either i guess. but if it were mine i'd chose the SDI's over the JK's. even though neither one are perfect on it.
