can I turn RAIN GUTTER in to SIDE SKIRTS?!??!

- That's right, in this video I show you how to turn a piece of rain gutter from a house in to a custom, stylish side skirt for under $68 total. I used PVC (plastic) gutter and included plastic aero bits from Amazon.
MERCH: barelybuiltright.creator-spri...
Aero (check dimensions!):
amzn.to/3ilIdp8
and
amzn.to/3vKW0sv
Flares are "extension style" flares and come from Pinnacle flares on ebay:

Wheel spacers are 2" (6x120 for my truck) and come from Titan:
amzn.to/3r53DaP
The truck is also lowered with the Belltech 1100SP 4/3" kit.

Good go see other people going this route. When we did ours it got a lot of backlash, but then the video has remained our top video every year for a month 😂
People love saving money! Appreciate the comment!
I like expensive and nice shit, but I absolutely love clever and creative ways to achieve a desired result on a budget. Anyone that has hate for this is just mad because they spent all summer delivering pizzas so they can save up for a rocket bunny kit that turned out to be a fake.
@@BarelyBuiltRight. Great looking truck what year is that?
You forgot to install the downspout..
😅
🤣
Or the kick out lmao
Landscape edging works as a great lower valance. Leaf guards grills and vents but never used gutters. Sweet!
NGL, it turned out pretty nice!
I did it on my trailblazer like I said. Came out freaking awesome! All credit goes to you for the great idea and video . Thanx bro 🙏
That's sick!! Love comments like these! Glad it worked out!
Great work 👍 these sideskirts looks really good on your truck!
Thanks! Appreciate your view
For a diy it looks great. You've definitely given me some new ideas for myself. Thanks for sharing.
I want to see someone transplant an entire roof and interior from a 2006 GMC suburbon onto one of these with the tv and every thing lol this looks really good by the way. Great job. When I had my bmw e46, I made a huge front lip on my 330i from a similiar plastic from the garden section lol. That was 15 years ago lol this makes me so happy. best video ever.
Did this 12 years ago to my rusted integra da9 rocker panels. I used rivets and it Looked good.
I’m mean obviously it looks good compared to what you were looking at before 😂 doesn’t take much
Well that's given me flashbacks. :D
Back when I had my Lexus IS200 (A "Sport", with factory fitted "Aero", and "Navigator" packs no less ! 😎 🤣) I wanted a cheap sacrificial splitter for the front bumper, but I couldn't find any sheets of thick black PVC for an acceptable price, so I bought a length of black 6" waste pipe. I split it, put it on a sheet of OSB and pointed a torpedo heater at it for 20 minutes to soften it right up. I then just unrolled it and let it cool. The beauty of using a tube was that I didn't need to split it in a straight line. I cut a large curve in it that almost went all the way round at the middle, so when unrolled it turned into a large flat arc (sort of banana shaped).
Because the front bumper on that had a raised section in the middle I then put the sheet of PVC back on the OSB board with another piece of wood of the right width and height to create this bit, and torpedo heatered it again until it sagged to the right shape.
Once shaped I screwed it to the underside of the bumper, trimmed it to follow 1.5" out from it's lower edge, and sanded it smooth. To finish it I just wrapped the top (and around the outer edge) with some glossy black car body wrap film I had stuffed on a shelf. It looked quite presentable, and fulfilled its purpose perfectly well (Which was to nudge high curbs when using "Nose in" on road parking before the paint on my bumper could).
Actually looks damn good. Youve got the stance looking perfect.
Looks better than the kiddy pool “wide body kits” I see everywhere.
Excellent result bro, I would probably ditch the aero canards at the front wheels, but this kinda stuff is right up my alley!
Not my thing but damn that’s creative and it looks good.. 👍🏾
I love your self tapping screws to aid with rust
Not here in Florida! But up north, yes
Looks awesome 👌
Thanks! Appreciate your view
I did this in 1986 on a '79 toyota Corolla... WOW!!
Nice truck
Bro awesome !!!!! Keep it up and f…..k negativity!!!!
Negativity brings interaction, which promotes my videos to the algorithm! Haters bring me money 😂 thanks for the support!
Looks sick dude!
Reinforce it with a fiberglass to make it more stiffer
Use the gutter for a mold and make them out of fiberglass ❤
@TroyCooperVegas that's what my sister-in-law said to me last night.
Looks good. Definitely following the build!
Thanks for the support!
Not bad man that's dam good 😊😂😅
Just dont hit anything with them 😂
They turned out great!
Nice Work!!!! Never thought of that!!!! Brilliant!!!!
Thanks!
Looks amazing dude ! I’ve been thinking about how I was gonna do my ( ford streetka ) here in the Uk as I couldn’t find a kit so this route has definite potential I shall definitely be pursuing it …thanks for the inspiration 👍
just found your channel actually laughed at first "This should be a good one lol" but dam it turned out great got to give you some mad props keep up the good work.
Appreciate it!
Very nice.... dare to be differently is always the way to go❤❤ appreciate the vid
This is great! Ill try it on my trailblazer ss 🙌🙏 thanx for sharing your creativity bro
Awesome idea keep up the good. The trucks looking great!!
Great idea. Im a little concerned with rust from the self tapping screws😮
Neat. You have quite an imagination my man. Looks great
Thanks! Although I will admit I saw someone else do it before me
Saved a bunch of money and it looks good too
Great Idea
Hopefully you make sure you tell people not to stop on the skits to get in the truck those will snap easily. But damn that looks Soo good. Man. Not a bad bet, might have to try this on my gmt800 Escalade
Really good job on such a very small amount of money. This has inspired me to create similar for my Vauxhall Frontera in the UK.
Thanks so much! Glad to provide some inspiration! Cheers
Unique! Looks good.
Appreciate it!
Had a mate years ago who used the road markers on the side of the road. To make his on a early 70s corona.
Looks good.
Good way to f up the truck, but it’s pretty creative, I like it, but I like dumb stuff😂
😅 its traded in now so nothing else matters lol
I did this back in the '80's on my Opel Manta. People though I bought a high dollar skirt kit for it. Paid less than $10.00.
Looks good
Actually pretty cool
That was 🔥
Good Idea ❤
10/10 for look... quality ofcuz it gonna pleading under the sun
Did this on a bunch of Datsun 510s back in the 80s.
Looks great 👍 it's cool seeing guys thinking outside of the box finding very affordable alternative ways to make automotive products, you'll have haters on this because they think you have to fall in line and spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars on these products, back in the 1980s I used to use vinyl house siding to form ground effects for cars and guys would where I got the custom parts because they loved them and after I told them they just laughed and walked away. Why? Because I didn't pay through the ass for something? Thanks for the video
Hell yeah appreciate the kind words! In all fairness, it wasn't my original idea, but I put my spin on it. Thanks for your view!
Can't believe U did it
Neither can I
Use Rivet nuts as well as nuts and bolts when ever fastening something to your vehicle, lest you give yourself a flat tire.
And that's top of mind
Haha I did this on my Honda Odyssey 5 years ago, awesome
Heck yeah! Appreciate it!
Wow Brutal 🔥🔥💪🏻💪🏻
Rust joint the chat
Florida babyyyy. But yes, a corrosion coating would help in northern climates.
What the hell Great thinking outside the box!
I always like to figure stuff out Great job!
Appreciate it! Although i cant take credit for the idea.. there have been a few before me here on YT
Liking that!
Oh wow that look really nice 👍
💯 % costume
Appreciate it! And saved a few bucks too 😉
Brilliant
looks amazing, how does it hold up to children and big guys? does it crack easily?
Thanks! Its definitely not a step. More so for looks. Takes kicks and such just fine though
I have a question regarding the front part, is it possible if you can drop it only one inch, without having to mess with the coil overs and springs just leaving it on a stocked shock??
I don't really see a way to drop the front at all without replacing the springs. The Belltech kit comes with a lot of shims that allow you to choose your drop up front, max of 3". You may be able to buy just the front end parts directly from them.
actually looks really fuckin dope
**LOOKS GOOD, JUST NEEDED PAINT IT BETTER JOB**
Broo... Fantaskit... 👍👍👍👍🥰
Thanks!
Im in Michigan so i definitely won't be self tapping to the rocker panels. 😮
Definitely a good call!
Lol my kind of shenanigans 😅
🔥 🔥🔥
where will the downspouts go ?
Snorkel?
How did it hold up?
have you noticed an increase or decrease in mpg
I haven't filled the tank since I put them on.
I want to know where at what point wheel-well-flares went from being called what they are to being called a wide body kit. The entire body IS actually wide in a "Wide-Body-Kit", NOT JUST wheel-well-flares......?
It happened in Tajikistan in February of 2004
@@BarelyBuiltRight 🤣
Hey, why not? Now when it rains, the tires will stay dry, really inovative, economical and safer.
cool
I have rust at the bottom of my door on the body side can I use the same idea the shape has a slight angle
Possibly! Mess around with the location of each skirt and you might be able to hide some of it. Make sure you have enough metal to hold the skirts on
It may be a stupid idea but I was thinking using spray foam to fill in the void behind to stiffen it up and would be light weight as well. 🤷🏻♂️
i was thinking the same
Tvirtinimo būdas tai ką aš žiniau..jei jau juokaujat tai gal iš medienos sleksčius pasidarykite 😂😂😂 humoristas
Dope!
yo saw you turning by the mattress store
Howdy neighbor! 😅
Astucieux 👏👏
Fill with spray foam I have
Dos acelerones y sale volando los plásticos esos 😂😂 espero equivocarme 😂
How're there so many views but not many subs y'all are wild
🆒😎👍!
Shoulda glue screwed then sprayed

Looks great , until someone step on it.
Yes these ones aren't meant to be stepped on, but could possibly be made to support weight with a little more engineering. With my truck being lowered they are pretty easy to step over.
Got to keep those kind of passengers out.
Exactly what I thought
Very Good!... #110 {5-10-2024} Aa
😮 what a horrible mistake those screws will soon create rust
Horrrrrrrrrrible!
@@BarelyBuiltRight hahahahahaha 😂
If u apply silicone/caulking to screws then put them in they won't
@@uttasyda9746 would this technically work on metal
@@illuminati_Bal has for me in the past
Lmao 🤣🤣🤣
I do roofing and sheet metal work for a living.
These gutters become brittle and crack and fall apart after a couple of years.
Good luck with that!!!😂😂😂
Very true. But my theory is I can replace these 3 or 4x by the time I pay "full price" for custom skirts
🥴😵💫🥴😵💫🥴😵💫🥴
Tums might help you
You coulda just used snipps.
Brb gonna remake the vid
lol
Before i see the video...the answer is yes
Why? Just for looks?
100% for frame strengthening
Otaly
Pweeblie
imagine put step on in when get on vehicle and get embarresed in front on people...i dont respond bobs
What in tf were you trying to say ?
Imagine trying to read this comment
you might be mentally challenged
Why ????????
I had to do it as part of a mission trip
Maybe because he could?
What is the purpose? Looks like crap, absolutely no protection from anything; other than a small stone. If you are looking for rocker protection, get some rocker sliders made of heavy steel. But your vehicle, if you want it to look like plastic, you did a good job.
Exactly, I wanted it to look like plastic 😅 who wants rock sliders on a street truck? That would look like crap
Useless crap, does nothing for me 😂
Nor does your comment do anything for me, but thanks for the interaction!
Don't do this!!! Those plastic pieces of crap are gonna flap like your mother of 20mph, when you hit 70mph they are gonna rip off.
If you are going to do something, do it right first time!
Fibre glass or composite is a lot more ridged, alloy even more. Don't use self-fing tappers (that's the equivalent of using electrical tape) they will rust. Please please don't try anything in this video on your car, you will regret it!
You saved a lot of lives here today
Absolutely useless crap. One drive down a trail it will be smashed to pieces. Waste of money.
Wait...what about my 2wd lowered truck said "trails" to you? 😅
Never would've thought of this. Bruh, Job We'll Done🫡
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
