I had GXV install a natures head on my rig like you. You will love it as long as you keep TP out of it. I see you have it mounted, just make sure you can pivot the top lid back enough to empty the pee bucket (which is like every two days with three ladies in my family). We used a stainless steel slide to keep it close to the wall and yet servicable without unbolting it.

It's been a week so I figured I better put some updated exterior shots on.
This one is when we picked it up at ITB
Off to Lite Industries in Red Deer for Mark to work his magic.
Mark's techs immediately started cutting apart our new truck, LOL
Here is the front bumper removed as well as the fender marked out where the technicians at Lite were about to cut the fenders to get ready to fit the large tires and wheels.
New AEV fenders installed.
On jack stands but showing the tires.
Fenders, tires bumper and winch installed. I ended up going with the Warn 16.5ti. The rear tires are just sitting in the rear wheel openings in this photo and will not be sticking out this far.
Loving the size of the tires and they fit the new fender wells perfectly.
As it sits yesterday. Lite still needs to do a bit of suspension work as well as finalize the fitting of the rear tires. I also have to replace the ram air intake on the AEV Raised Air intake with an AEV spec'd pre-filter.
Getting pretty close now!!

That looks very nice, both the design and execution. Are the flares tapered behind where the front door opens??
If you have a second can you elaborate on what's going on in the battery compartment? Looks like a Blue Sea class T fuse, a shunt for monitor??, a Blue Sea charge isolator . What's the power terminal block for?
Thanks

Ward,
Are you getting full tread coverage with the AEV flares on the front? The different camera perspectives are throwing me off I guess ...
Thanks

Looking GREAT Ward. Really love the way those fenders and tires transform the look of the camper. Nice choices.
