Yeah the lights look waaaay better down. Your guys did a good job painting the bumper.. i was worried the paint would look weird where the tubes weld to the top of the bumper. Looks great. I likey!

In this picture it looks like I have overspray however it must be a reflection from the sun, because I do not see any overspray at all!






Thanks for all the complements it was a very busy week for me, plus I had put a time frame to have all this mod's done by the end of August!

Mission Acomplished!:arabia:

I gave my self 6 months to finish this project and I am almost done, 2 months before schedule, now it's time to play.

Need to do some trips this month, I need some Virgin Bay Areas!

Need to find the time to get away, all work and no play is no fun!

I'd be worried about catching something with the lights if you are in brushy area ... bumper looks great.

Have you decided what is next?

No I have not decided, however I am considering the Warn name Brand as the winch to get!

I am also looking into getting the Hanna Rear Bumper just because of the 3 gas can holder,( I which Slee would make a rear bumper with this feature ) it seems easier to handle the Nato Cans, plus i will be getting a better departure angle? Since I will move the spare to the back and I could remove my towing hitch!( my protection for my rear bumper ):wings:

Need to travel now!

I am taking more riskdswith the new bumper, I used to touch dirt in the front , and now it is much easier!

I guess I need to do something in the rear!


Hanna Bumper?

I just bought an ARB EZ-deflator and it works great very fast!

I bought the Magellan CrossOver GPS and it seems to be working great, I will also get the Mexico Topo and will report back!

I also made this photo video and alot of people seem to like it, I may just use it for each and every one of my trips from now on!

I am also looking into a rear bumper, and will consider Slee, Hanna and 4x4 Labs, I should be ready for the rear bumper after the holiday season!

Looking nice and clean as always.

What are you going to use the rig for? That would be a good starter for people to recommend a rear bumper.

Well the main reason I feel I need a rear bumper is to be able to get that spare tire out from under the vehicle, I have the towing packg and for now it is my protection to the rear, however i keep on hitting my rear all the time when I am in some trails.

As for the rig, I want to continue going in the trails to Baja and in the near future to Alaska.

I am not into rock crawling, nor I think I will ever be I am more into exploring virgin bay areas, and trails.

I also know that Slee is coming out with a new bumper, I do not know what the main differences might be, however they are at my top list.

Hanna makes a great rear bumper, with some good options... decisions decisions.

I think one of my main concerns would be wich ever bumper I choose, I do not want it to block my rear lights.

Oh! and I will color match the bumper to silver, I may just do the bottom part of the truck in the same silver color.

I'd get a slider before a rear bumper. Even though you're not into rock crawling, your "virgin bay area" explorations might take you to some rock infested areas. Just an opinion.

But good-looking rig, nonetheless!
