This might look even better in body color...

I know, I'm debating on going black or color match. This bumper is a prototype so I just painted it rattle can so I could have a usable bumper, I may color match the final bumper and possibly do the caps and light cans black.

Got all the lights wired up and the m8000 winch with synthetic line.

Wow!

Ok. One question: notice the fair lead angled down a bit. Is there a specific reason? /curious

Thanks.
It allows the center section to look smaller and the bumper be tucked back tighter. It was the only way to get the the look I wanted and keep it tucked in how I want.

Got some temporary rock rails on to hold by until I get the full sliders developed.

Ordered the ome bp-51 kit today along with the arb twin compressor and exhaust jack.

Also got all the bits and pieces to put together what I think will be a pretty nice dual battery set up.
Can't wait to get it all installed.

Got started on the dual batteries today, I decided to go with a yellow and blue top optima. After the problems I had with my diehard platinums I thought I give the optima a try again. They both fit in the factory location with a custom tray and hold down.
A big reason for going with the optima from Napa is I can exchange at any Napa store if there are any issues.
Should have the batteries and arb twin compressor all done tomorrow, also looks like the bp-51 kit is going to be here tomorrow as well.
More pics to come.

Got a lot done today, the batteries are all hooked up, compressor mounted and the front bp-51 mounted.
FedEx lost one of the rear leaf springs but they found it and it will be here tomorrow.
1st impressions of the new ome stuff was WOW! Took it down a pretty rough dirt road and hit some deep ruts and holes at about 25mph, with the little bit I did I was impressed with the fronts! I will get the rears on tomorrow and hopefully put to the test.
