I'm very happy to update this thread. After some intense work at jtsmith's house, these beauties emerged from Jon's gianormous oven all shiny and black. A base coat of high gloss black, and then a wrinkle type finish over that on the outer bars. The outriggers were left gloss for easy cleaning. I'm very pleased with the results.

Before I took these to Kansas, I welded nuts on the backs of all the plates, it greatly eased the re installation.

I'll probably add some skate board tape for step pads along the top to prevent slips.

My sliders welded straight to frame plates and 'boat sided' (something like 30 degrees) for that total newb factor ;)
