| saw this on gmfullsize.com. dude etched the lower with a grinder and cleared over it. i think it woould look sicker with a tinted clear but still sick imo.  | |

| I've thought about that before...only my truck is only half metal with my fiberglass bedsides...
but i think with etched ghost flames or other graphic it could look pretty cool, especially with some airbrushed accents.
Any other pics | |

| Yeah, thats a cool idea, I've seen it done with candy sprayed over bare metal as a tint then cleared... looks pretty sweet... | |

| I don't see anyway that this would hold up at all. the only way to get anything to stick to bare metal is with an etch primer which is generally a goldish color. I think it would either peel or rust and then peel | |
