Ya I love diamond plate also man!! Hopefully do a custom dash and other interior item's in diamond plate to match later on.

Used the vice. Got some angle on each side as the vice ain't long enough and used a big adjusteable wrench and used a razor blad to scroe the diamond plate and bent it into shape. That's what we do around here as we don't have an acutlly shop just a bunch of tools my dad has had for a while as he's 65 and we still work in the dirt, don't have a nice garge floor or nothing. A REAL PAIN IN THE BUTT TO SHAPE THAT DIAMOND PLATE!!

yeah; once you get a garage floor it's kinda hard to go back to the dirt.... i got lucky and my aunts farm has two bay doors and are about 2 bays deep... this will be my 2nd truck i've rebuilt in there. so; yes i'm spoiled but dirt wouldnt stop me either way. i live to wrench i had the same idea to remove the factory dash insert and make a diamond plate one.... i guess i need to be abit more original... or great minds think alike; take your pick. either way looks good bud

i'd slap an airdog on it... with the 366 spring and injectors you'll be flowing more fuel than your stock lift pump can supply
