I got no pictures but heres what i did for mine.. drew out on a piece of paper the shape that i wanted for the tray. Basically just a 2 metre square with dovetailed rear. drew rollbar. took them to an exhaust shop and got it all bent up. welded 2x1rhs ribbing across the tray then 2 2x2rhs rails down the middle with 2" c channel mounts to the body. attached roll bar. sheeted with 3mm alloy checker plate. mud guards just a basic ute tray mud guard made out of alloy checker plate. another piece of checker plate across the back with holes cut in it for the tail lights.
01 td42 GU patrol ute, with extra bits and pieces.

Some great trays there Chris,

Here's a basic one I knocked up,

I would probably go the same if I had a Lux but then I wouldn't be doing comp stuff.

Cheers
