Here is a rear topper that allows the upper rear shock mounts to be flipped.



Here is a custom set of sides per customer request.



Keep the ideas coming guys. I'm not taking any new orders till January but don't let that stop you from bringing new ideas to the table.
Thanks
Clay

My new one piece panel and new roof. Figured I deserve new panels since everyone else is getting them.

Seems that a whole day was lost when the site went down. All orders that were placed have shipped out. Lost a lot of pms so if you have any questions give me a shout.

Some of the recent custom stuff.
Half roof with flat brow

Full side skins with wrap around front and bottoms. Also has new straight cut door.


The reason why a one piece skin costs more. When laid out it takes a large piece of material. I can cut 5 roofs in this same area. It also creates a lot of waste.

Keep the ideas coming.
Thanks
Clay

And the newest option. The 3 piece. Tucks inside the rear to form a bed area.

they look great The more of the voids you can fill in the front cuts down on clean up time at the end.

Thanks. It really does make a big difference, and with the "coming soon" inner front fenders, it really helps. I have my protos installed on mine and I don't get anything under the hood area anymore. I don't go in the mud, but there is the occasional water splashing and wet grounds.

Sold out of stock right now. Material is ordered and will be ready to go again end of next week. Crawler InNovations has a few sets of everything I make in stock right now. Grab an electronics tray while you're there. And don't worry, the front fender wrap around on the sides does not interfere, just adds more protection for your electronics.
Thanks
Clay

What would be the best way to cut the holes for the lights on these?

For the stock oval rear light housings. Mark where you want them with a sharpie. Use a drill bit to drill each end of the oval, so that you have a nice clean radius. Then you can take a dremel and cut the 2 straight lines joining the drilled holes to form an oval. A small hand file or fine grit Emory cloth works well for deburr.

Does Crawler Innovations have your parts listed on their website? I can't find anything but the roof panel.

Your panels are awesome Clay. I really like the look of the Option 3 with the inner fender wells in the rear. Gives the truck a whole different appeal. Keep it up ol"buddy!!!

Thanks man. Just sent a set to Crawler InNovations to dress up White Lightning. They don't get beat on as quick either.

I just got my panels yesterday, still not done with them yet, but here is the rear, just finished
When your done, use a Dremel sander to deburr (the smaller one in the pic 120 grit) it's perfect size for width and corners fits like a glove

Looking good. Wish more customers would post pics. Never know, just might earn you some freebies.
Just sayin
