Oak Floorboards

[btcherm]

Just got my oak floorboards done and put on the Rt ,please give me your input on how they look.

I like the "fresh" approach to an existing idea. They are also uniquely yours..................combine those with an "Oak" dash trim kit from Pete and you have a theme to some degree that will tie together? :thumbup:

A suggestion to put some kind of clear grippy coating on it, or your feet will keep sliding off them, especially when wet.

The grippy coating is a good idea but somehow I don't think you'll be riding in the rain! They look cool.

 

[rlynchtx]

Very nice. I like the contrast between high tech and old world. Looks great.

A dash of silica sand in the varnish?

Also like the Oak dash idea :thumbup:

Oh and replace those hex head bolts with round head Allen bolts, your shoes will thank you.

 

[Bob Denman]

The logical next step to Randy's, "2Xfloorboards"... :thumbup:

They looks awesome,and original and very exclusive. If I can suggest, can you sink the mounting bolts and

plug them afterward?

How did you mount the aft mounting? Did you have insulation rubber like the front one? I made mine with

1/4 " aluminum diamond plate. I got pictures but unable to post sorry; Love to share them to all.

Nice job!

Now you will be polishing the bottom of your boots :roflblack:

 

[Chupaca]

Awesome..!!

amazing job, looks great will you have a matching dash..?? :thumbup:

If you plasti dip them with clear plasti dip you would protect them, they would be less slick and you could remove the dip when you wanted to.

I'm a woodworker at heart and you have done an absolutely beautiful job.

My only observation is that they are going to be tricky to maintain with the abrasive road grit and such.

:agree: They look great. I too was wondering how they are going to stand up to the elements, the foot scuffing, etc. Hope they last well. The upside though--you may get a chance to do redo your project every once in a while. That is the fun of woodworking. :thumbup:

Really nice.:yes:

 

[SpyderDon]

Beautiful. :clap: I like the idea a lot, Any chance you could get a picture of rear bracket. Did you do anything to the brake pedal? Just read somewhere that boards can cause trouble with the pedal not going low enough.

 

[Agent K]

Way cool!:bowdown:
