Looks good, The diamond plate is a bit much but I think when you paint it it will not be as noticeable.

Rick, I thinking of changing the diamond plate, it is just stitch welded around the square tubing and replacing the top rail of the tailgate with 1" pipe, plus he came off $50 from what I originally told you, said he would buy my gas, 250 mile round trip. :D

And add chains to hold the gate flat when open. Workbench!
