Here's the money shot

Below I photoshoped an image of a shortbed fleetside and shortened the rocket rails to something a little more paletable.  They pay homage to the original overly long rails and also allow you to keep the stock tail light.  I think they look sporty enough and in line with the original and not too custom.  The points of the rail are still a little to sharp as there is nothing on the truck quite that sharp.  So I am going to have them a little more rounded or blunt when I fab the real ones.  I will also experiment with a few different lengths.  Real short, short and just a little longer.  I have two different lengths pictured here as well as the original, way too long, crack cocane length!

 

Real short - to the "d" in the Fleetside emblem above it.

Sorta Medium - to the back of the "t" in the Fleetside emblem above it.

 
Factory Long - all the way to the cab!!!
