The only thing that looks better then a sparkling clean truck...is what you pictured above.

You know it was fun, and she looks great.

Now clean it, and do it all over again

Where did you get the ? I do not know what you call them, but they are mounted on the body where the clips go to the frame & post's? I saw them after the clean up, LOL. They look like they will help reinforce the body holes![8D]

Oh ya,[>:] they have helped allot in bashing, they are grommets you get when you go shopping with your wife to the arts and craft shop[:@]. I ended up buying the ones you get for tent stakes at Walmart or at a hardware store. They come with a block and a punch set, you will have to drill out the holes just a smidgen . They are pretty cool and allow you to minimize the chance of ripping the body holes in a crash but, you will bend the heck out of the clips.
