How does the edge branding work? Is it sewed on or adhesive of some sort?
how did you like the Raptor Liner? My kit just arrived via the UPS man Saturday.
Tackled a rust spot on the bed panel, 1st time blending in a patch panel for a rust repair. Trying to get some practice in before tackling some exterior rust spot on the lower section of the top. Think it turned out pretty good for 1st attempt.
I liked it. Sprays way easier then paint. Set my regulator to 45 psi and followed the mixing directions
Received and installed TROA top, hung my late doors to fit the staight b pillar of the soft top bows.

I'm not the one posting cat photos, peaches.
To be fair... (letterkenny reference) I did have car parts in the picture too. I’ll get us back on track. Got the fender pulled off and starting to remove the oem steering stuff to make way for hydraulic stuffs.
Very well done Ryan! Me like
