Default 39 P/U bed side boards.....

Contemplating putting these on my bed, would like some pictures of your trucks if you have them to help with my decision.

Also what/were would be the best source for a quality set thanks. Scott

If I was doing them I would make them myself. They look good only on certain trucks in my opinion.

Depending on what you want or like, traditional or other. There is various styles you can build or be creative. Try a google image search.
I have a 12" one board version that goes on my truck that I made from cedar. It's not on the truck currently to take a picture for you.

This image is from a google search

another one... on a 37.

They might be a thing to do to play around with a bit.

I thought about doing them just to lighten up my overall black package.

Along those lines - your light bed might not need the enhancement.

I think you'd want to match the bed wood, too. Whatever that's worth
