Rode today threw some some pretty rough stuff and I love the boards felt more under control cause my feet wernt half off and they didnt move a bit very happy with the mod
 
Yeah it looks like it came out great. It doesn't seem like too bad of a project to do either. I would've never thought to mount running boards made for a Phazer on a RX 1.
