What did you use for the exterior paneling? Aluminum sheets?

Sure is a nice rig.

Thank you! I purchased a Bauer metal sheer from harbor freight after my dewalt one took a dump. It works really good on this aluminum.

Thank you! I’m going to take a guess and say I’m around 320lbs currently. The stock glass top was a tank around 220lbs

Looks nice. Do you have a fan in there?

I like the rear bumper, guess theres a little more to hang back there? Those slots in back would be great for lights. Light bar across the front of the topper?

Yep, the fan has ten speeds and sucks in air or pushes out and has a rain sensor which shuts the vent if it rains. The fan also has a temp setting which automatically opens vent and turns on fan if it gets
to hot.
