Thanks boys! Yeah I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Moving on to the next projects: Finally bought a spare 16x8 from wheel vintiques, and working on the hubcap I found at the salvage yard. Hoping my tire shop will be open so I can get a tire mounted on it.

With it raining on and off a lot lately I've been narrowing down the leak I have going into the cab. It seems the water is pooling in the rear window slider channel, then since my truck is usually parked at a slope left or right, it'll travel to the low side and leak out of the channel and down into the corners. The seals and felt on the sliders look like they're in good condition, but it doesn't surprise me that they leak...

So now the question is how to remedy this? I don't want to replace the entire rear window, but I'm not sure how else to stop the leak? I like having the slider, its convenient to pass things through to the bed...
