Well when I bought my KJ Renegade it had a front tow receiver on the front. I was going to remove it and buy new tow hooks but decided to just leave it on and try and get creative and cover it up while adding D-Rings to it as well. This is what I came up with. I first went out and got measurements then drew up a sketch, then did a good drawing with dimensions. Next I made a cardboard prototype then we next made a thing aluminum one. My brother in law works at a metal fab. shop so he found me a piece of scarp and cut and bent it up just how I wanted it. Once I got it from him a cut a few design slits in it and painted it up with primer then bedliner paint. I went ahead and painted my rock rails to match since they had tons of surface rust on them. I am really happy with how things came out...though it serves no function other then to hide the tow hitch plug.

Hi,
I like you work, out of curiosity do you the measurements you have take to build the Rock Rails? I really like them and the tuck away nicely. I have asked many times on the forum but no one has then available, as you have build then from scratch you might have keep them. I would be very gratefull.
Thank you,
Fil.
