Hmmm, If I were you, I'd learn! And get a cheap little tig welder or something like that at harbor freight, other than that, to have it made. Diamond plate is getting expensive, and you should just get sliders instead of getting those ugly, rust causing, mall crawler panels. :thumbup:

Trustyrusty does have a couple good points. They will eventually allow rust to form out of sight, so you won't know until it's too late. They also wont save your sheet metal like sliders.

That being said, you could talk to a local welding/fab shop and find one with a metal break. It would take a pretty big one to bend diamond plate, but it's not unheard of. I would make a card board template of the panel and one of how you want it bent to fit the bottom of your door. Take those with you, plus the pic and see what they say.
