Okay I have an '04 ST I am putting on my fender flares later in the week but to put them on I had to remove the small plastic pieces that go under the door. Well now theres holes all down the side of my ST and I was wondering how i can fill these or cover them or what?

Well since no one apparently has any ideas :rolleyes:
i took it one of my local auto body shops n they said they can weld and paint it for me for 200 per side and that theyll paint my fenders and front bumper for 500 so I was wondering if anyone knew if this was a deal or not?

Thanx oh i guess those pics didnt come up ill try to figure it out.
 






I'll tell ya here in alaska thats a smokin deal, dont know bout cali though. good luck
 












well that seemed to be the cheapest but to update yall my prerunner bumper is halway done right now and ill be gettin my fiberglass made for free cuz it didnt fit :D woohoo
so yeah ill have to give it to em for a week but oh well i can handle that for free stuff ;)

so ill still need to get em painted but :confused: oh well
 






I reread your post is it 500 for all of it or 900? BTW if you do all the prep work macco can do it fairly cheeply just dont let them do any prep because they suck and the paint will fall off!
 






all the paint would be 900
i just got it back and checked it out w/ the bumper and dang i think it looks good w/out fenders.
I really want LT now but dang i just cant afford it. So I think im gonna not get the fenders cuz ultimately its gonna cost me 900 even though the fenders wouldnt cost me anything
so the paint plus the money back for the fenderst that didnt fit is 1100 which is only 1000 away :p: from camburgs 6.0 performance kit so even though its not really a LT it will give me 10"s which is better than now :D
 






$900 does seem high like i said check out macco just make sure and do your own prep work! Did you check with anyother body shops? Dont give up on your dreams man if you want it do it!
 






well i may want em but i would much rather have my spindle lift
so ill just save the money n if i decide later that i want em then ill get em
 






Well i got my bumper done
here's some pics of it
hey does anyone have a program or something to show me what different tires and rims look like
i kinda have an idea what i want but i still cant decide if i want w/ teflon or just brushed so any help would be great
thanx
 






I don't recall seeing your first post, but I was told by a couple places $1500+

What kinda tires and wheels are you looking for? Rim size, tire size, etc..

Yeah thats the price Im figuring, probly a lil more around 1800 for the American Racing. Im looking at 33's on 16's or 17's dont matter. I really like the American Racing ATX Teflon Crater, or the KMC XD Enduro.
I would really like to know what they would look like on my truck, ya know.
I am also thinkin about gettin the Nitto Terra or Dune Grapplers.
Any suggestions?
Thanx
 






Wow! Those are great picks...but where'd the skid plate come from in your CD pics? :)
 






watcha mean whered they come from?
hey i checked out fatbtech spindles for the lift n in theory theyll fit my truck cuz its the exact same suspension as the ranger edge
then i found another brand that i cant think off the top of my head but theirs are black and they have one specially for the ranger and specially for the sport trac so i was like o:confused: and the one for the sport trac is 200 bucks more! so that doesnt make sense since theyre the same
