Shaved drip rail
« on: Mar 14, 2010, 08:52:42 PM »
Has anyone ever shaved the drip rail on their truck?  I have a 80 model and been thinking about doing this to mine.  I saw post awhile back where a guy did this but i can't seem to find the topic.  So does anyone have any opnions or pictures of this.

I do love the shaved look, but not on trucks! Why shave them, just put it on its side an smash them in?
Not sick, but not well.
