Modified my Trail Gear Sliders

I removed my sliders to paint and decided to make them more kid friendly.
I used aluminum diamond plate to cap the top so that my son's feet wouldn't accidentally slip in between the rails.
I've been thinking about doing this since I bought the sliders and I finally did it.
I hope you all like it.
