Did you seal the edges of the door guard to prevent water getting in there and causing rust?

You might want to use some silicone to seal them up and avoid problems later.

You’re in Pennsylvania! You’ve gotta bring Tonka to the Carlisle Ford Nationals on June 2-4.

We’re having a Maverick Truck Club gathering there, in case you haven’t heard — Club tent in the show field, cookout, prizes, and everything.

It’s going to be the first major presence of Maverick trucks at this huge (3,000 Fords!) event.

Register by Tuesday to get the discount. We’d love to have you — or anyone on this forum — join us.

Read all about it on this thread:

@Tuch — So, c’mon — Can you get that beautiful Tonka machine to Carlisle in June for the MTC gathering at the Ford show? Love to see that truck added to the ever-growing Maverick class.

I was suggesting just the ends. I know the inside of the guards is adhesive but how airtight is the outer portion against the door?

By no means are they airtight which I'm thinking is good to dry up. When drying with towel it easily flaps out and right back. However 70% of this I installed 3m on outside, it's the only way I could figure out how to tuck it in and seal it at the same time on both front doors by the quarter panel.

Just looking to share my mods I've done over the past couple months within my pay grade. The Tonka came to me very late in the long game most of us are playing with Ford, (500+) but was my first mod. They were fun a.f. as I've never done anything to my vehicles in the past. My last mod was my favorite because it took some outside the box thinking, drilling, and grinding, being the cargo hooks that attach and slide along the rail system and also lock in place. Now for the list with pics. Thanks for playing.

Exterior: Tonka decals, Tonka license plate frame, Tonka puddle lights, Maverick lettering, mud flaps, fender guards (choose this route to blend with muds flaps) and used it to do the tailgate and hood, bug deflector, door guards (they cover the entire edge of the doors all around), and my fav - the cargo hooks.

Interior: gear shift cover and storage divider, radio cover, dash storage bin with phone mount, USB ambient lights (1 in back lighting up fits garbage can and 1 to light up wireless charging tray area), custom cup lights (Tonka of course), and mirror dash cam. Not a mod but threw in a dash of Dewalt and I listen to music via USB on MY ipod video. (Bonus sync gets it).

Thank you all for giving me the courage to do this kind of sh-t, and the patience to get to 500+. MTC is my daily medicine.

Need something on the front and side to make it pop more. Other than the one Tonko logo on back, most is easy to miss. This is my truck for comparison. I parked next a same color buddy at work.
