    You could put a 3m clear bra in them fenders. I have one on my wifes car and it was totally worth the money.

    It may not be practical but it sure is hot

    thats the razors edge truck, its up for 130k! I think that would have to be a non working show truck with a front end like that, i would hate to be at the body shop monthly!

    I would not want to drive it for a more than a couple of reasons.
    1) Where do you hang the base plate?
    2) No protection for the fenders or grill.
    3) Long catwalks are stupidity for any truck that is not pulling a flatbed trailer (you burn fuel just to break wind twice)
    4) Constant ground clearence issues at the tanks and grill
    5) You gotta sit on the floor to see a light change (or play an Ace Ventura).
    6) I like to stand up to button my jeans.
    7) Fenders on the drives, OMG! what a hassle that would be if you have to chain up!

    I have no problems breaking wind twice!

    come on guys, it's a show truck. enjoy it for the workmanship not it's practicality. You don't honestly think that thing has ever seen freight do you

    by the way,I'm over 6'1" and I can stand up enough to put my pants on. People who have never driven a flat top have misconceptions about them.
