Looks good. What suspension setup are you running?

These suspension systems are really cool. Certainly tempting to go down the Rebel TRX style route and build a Raptor fighter.
I'm sure with the right combination, I will get exactly what I want. However I'm not sold on the front fenders. Way too "Baja-Racer" for my taste. If I was going down the replica Rebel TRX Concept route, I would like an actual Rebel TRX Replica with those front fenders. It looks far better IMO.

Dirt King provided the suspension for this concept and Advanced Fiberglass is making a TRX concept replica kit. I'm actually working on this conversion now.

So you are doing a Rebel TRX conversion? Would be interested to see how it turns out.

I already have the bedsides. Fenders and hood are about 5 weeks out still.

How are the bed sides attached? Do you need to remove panels? OR do you paste them on top?

You have to remove the sheet metal bedsides to attach the fiberglass. I bought someone's take-off bed so I can do it over a weekend and it won't matter if I screw anything up, haha.

I actually plan on taking it a step further and installing the full bed cage Dirt King offers
