Looking good! I mini tubed mine and then decided to go all the way. I used the stock stuff and some sheet stock to make my own. Looks kind of factory.

The pic HardcoreB has above is my Dart Sport. I also used the spatter paint to hide it all. Came out pretty good.




Can you get that in a spray can???

I bought splatter paint in a rattle can.
So yes , you can buy it.
But even after extended periods of shaking , it came out in chunks.
So no , it didn't work for me.
I was looking forward to that " stock trunk floor " look too.

Okay so I have had all the stuff sitting around for the valiant. Now I sure as hell never thought I would be the one welding all this stuff but with a little help from some freinds I am happy with the progress. Plus it's keeping me busy after work.











Still have to finish up welding the frame connectors,cleaning the underside,taking out the old spare tire area and some other things as you can see.
