Looks very nice.

Someday......

That material is available as Associated Chassis protector. That stuff is the bomb. Use a little heat to conform it and it will stick forever. It is cheap as well.

THANKS Dustin, coming from a guy who builds some uber nice rigs, that means alot. I did the pc knowing that If I hated it, I can always media blast it and go polished stainless.

Rizzo, thanks, forgot who makes the stuff, great product and cheap. I use it on any aluminum surface that needs to slide on rocks now.

nope! great plains (tower hobbies) shows it as discontinued form what i have read they discontinued it because it is a petroleum based product, so it was gone way back when oil spiked up in price.
