The hugger framework looks great but you defeated the purpose of the hugger itself with the mesh insert. :whistle:

I think it'd be cool to use the frame work and cut the hugger to a smaller size and then mount it on the frame work instead of directly on the arm.

Started blasting the rear cover. Nice to see the old and original stripes under all those layers of paint.

nice work on the fender. i hate it when people just chop them off for a shorter look. once you tidy that all up it will look factory. B)
