    :facepalm:I know, I know. I should be getting a new camera soon so I will get some decent shots then. Until then all I have are Samsung S3 shots. :p

    Thanks again SCS! The wheels are awesome and really completed the truck. I am still looking forward to the SR8's when they do release. But until then I will rock the F-5's with Pride. :)

    One last shot for now from the camera phone. I finished clearancing the wheel well with a BFH and a grinder. I had to cut back the cab mount some more and make a bit more room with the hammer. I also removed all the stickers from the doors and the frame. I now have a nice clean look with just the SCS decal on the doors.

    Hopefully this weekend I can get some stuffing shots and also find out what else I need to trim. :D

    Eric, can you take a picture, close up, of the cut section on your bumper? I want to see what the finished product look like when you did it.

    Yeah I can do that this weekend. Although I will say the way we did Bob's was much easier. We simply cut his. Mine is cut and I added a piece of plate back in which is not really needed.

    Cool. I was planning on trying to weld in a small piece of plate to keep the nice, finished look but figured it would be hard to repaint and make it look nice. I am afraid that if I try to make it look better I will actually make it look worse.

    For Travis.

    ARB Bumper cut point. Just in front of a support that runs inside the bumper.

    Thank you sir! By front, you mean towards the rear of the vehicle? And you said that the filler plate that made the cut area resemble the factory edge was unnecessary?
