ok, so I've got this idea. Doesn't seem too hard to do, but I'm thinking it might be overboard.

Here's the idea. Right now, I've got serious roadrash from branches and other crap from driving around the various Nat'l Forests here in the NW. Originally, I was going to go the whole magnet idea, and make some door protectors that way.

Instead, I'm thinking DIAMOND PLATE. I've got a couple extra 4x12' 16 guage diamond plate sheets in my garage. I can template the doors, cut them out of diamond plate, then rivet or glue them to the doors.

Your thoughts? How good would a H3 look with full diamond plate doors look? I'd go black powdercoat (the H3 is black), cut the sheets to fit perfectly, and make the entire sides sans fender DP. I'll eventually get the time to line-x the fenders, so that should add to the 'tough' look, but also protect it from tree scratches + the occasional rock.

Your thoughts? Sound off, let me know what you think!
