      Extensive, Kindig, places like that are real Auto Builders. Personally I think West coast is Garbage. Mainly all Bolt on crap which in my opinion anyone can do. Extensive is my Favorite, The Show Texas Metal. But Kindig is by far the Cleanest work I've ever seen.

    Love the truck dually wheels. Sits well under the trex decking you had installed over the fenders. Makes a nice addition to the shopping cart handle you added to the trunk lid. I bet that wobble going over bumps really helps smooth things out for a nice ride. Oh, and them cupped tires probably add 5 horsepower and so much more traction. Good news, though. You can call your insurance and let them know it's totaled.

    Overall looks good but the big fail for me is that the wide body kit looks just like that, a bolt on kit vs something that looks factory and actually blends to the body with no visible lines...I'm surprised that WCC would do this and put their name on it...
