yea man your explorer is like exactly what mine is going to look like. I have the tires and black rims on it already. I want to get it painted black and then with the dark tint on the windows, it is going to look good. How much did u tint your windows? How much should i tint the rear one so i dont have a problem seeing when i am reversing at night?

I'd say leave the rear one stock, unless you plan on adding extra reverse lights. I have two i just need to wire them up.
 






well besides getting it just to make it look good, it serves as security. I have my 2 12" subs in the back and you can look right into my car and see them. Thats why i was looking at getting 5% tint. i know one of my frinds have it in their truck and you can even cup ur hands and look in and you cant see anything. Thats what i want. But when you sit inside you can still see out. So thats why i was looking at 5%
 






Might be fun to revive this?

Did Stang5lgt make most of the armor? Looks great, exactly where I want our truck to go. :thumbsup:

He didn't do any of it- a buddy of his did though. Stang5lgt did my gears. He might do a rear bumper with a swing out though. The only thing is that it would be a tube bumper and the front bumper is a plate bumper. I haven't decided if I want that combo just yet.
 






37. Mud

Also, bumper bottle opener. Genius.
