Wow. Must say I'm surprised it looks so "home" modified, thought it would have been more quality finished.

Begs the question of when is a Bowler not a Bowler; or how much do they need to modify for it to be eligible for a Bowler badge/plaque?

Many items, but it's someone's truck, and if they are happy with it great.

The shoulder straps are still well off, even for bucket seats - it's the angle they make to the floor fixing. Would be better if they were either wrap arounds on the horizontal element of the roll cage or if you want to keep the snap hooks then have them attach to the hoop legs.
