We have been running them foe several years. Ours include the tail light section. They have held up better than the steel ones by far. There are certainly pictures out there. Will figure out how to attach them.

I probably have seen them before then & just never knew it! Didn't know you had them Dan. Thought you guys still had steel.

Wow love the fiberglass kit from Autofab. If customs for shipping in Canada weren’t so expensive, I would have just bought the kit instead of doing my fiberglass parts myself. Keep the pictures coming?
Regarding the FAST EFI system, I did install it on my 460. Easy installation but I got to do a lot of trouble shooting to get it running good. My map sensor would plug once in a while in an intermittent manner which would make me crazy. I did solve the issue! Resolving the problem would be as simple to change the unit. It was simply the rubber grommet at the end of the MAP that was tearing apart and with the vacuum of the engine would at times; plug the end of the unit! In the end good system and reliable. The grommet can’t be bought alone?

Here are a couple of pics of ours. You would never get the top on or get the tail gate to fit the way we did them, but they look fine from 50'.

That's a good looking truck, I had a quick question about these "plans" for the fiberglass rear quarter panel install. Is this something you made or is there a place to aquire these? I thought autofab had instructions but I can't seem to find these.

Autofab did have instructions on the old website but I just did a bit of searching for you & couldn't get them to show up on the new one

Are you sure Autofab doesn't offer the bulged quarters? John asked when we got these and I requested the stock versions since they work fine with the 35's and we are still using stock front fenders. They are using Autofab fenders on the Method truck that just ran the NORRA 1000 race and John was talking to them about modifying them to work better with the 37's.

Sorry I worded that poorly, they do offer the bulged versions now (I have the 4" bulge/3" larger wheel opening). However they are only available without the rear tailight section.
