    Looks like I'm the First to comment. awesome build Bro. I like those omega rears. I went with the stage 5 , billet UCA's. I should have done the 7. Now I regret it.

    Can you post an extra pic of your stickers on your truck? I like the IVD stickers you have.

    Jose, we can always swap them out for you ;)

    This War Pig build is legit!!!! Your taco looks like a stealthy zombie killer beast - could have fit right in in the movie I Am Legend.

    Swap sounds good, but how much more for the stage 6 and the stage 7? Will it have the GB discount?

    Thanks man, you should post some pics when you get a chance. Those billet UCA's look great.
    Do you want another angle of the bedside stickers? I'll take some tomorrow bc WarPig is caked in mud right now!:mudding:

    How are those Anzo lights? I've only seen like 2 people with them and their light output pictures themselves sucked so I can't really tell how good the cutoff and output is.

    And did you have the CBI bumper on with stock suspensions? how'd it ride?

    Matte Black over the Black looks great. Had my wife put them on. Hope this helps.

    Depending on the angle you look at it, it seems to change from Matte Black, Silver, Grey and damn near invisible.

    Anzo Lights have been great for me so far. Searched and searched for reviews on here and online, but found nothing thorough except for one guy said his let in moisture. I just dove and said screw it "I'll reseal them myself, let it dry over and slap them on". PITA to install, but worth it bc I never see them around. Buddy of mine's wife's tire fell off. On the way back from following them home he said my lights were bright as shit (which I knew already). Ppl aren't flashing their hi-beams at me at night but I can see into their cars and the features on their face. I'll dig up some output pics.

    I had my CBI bumper with stock suspension. It rode fine, minute loss in performance but worth it. Between bumper and the winch it lowered front end a bit but who cares right..badass bumper.

    Keep in mind these are before adjustments

    Thanks. Trust me, I've heard my fair share of "All you care about is that f*ckin truck" haha. :argue: But all in all, she knows it makes me happy and thinks its sexy so she's a keeper!

    The Icon sticker looks great. I'm going to have to get the same one. I have a silver color on my Taco. I wonder what color scheme sticker would be best?

    Just got word my wheels are coming in Hot. Probably install kit next week since I work thru the holidays.

    Cool thanks for the pics. I'm going to keep these on my wishlist. They look really cool to me too.

    Thanks for the info on the bumper too. I want to go with CBI's new Dakar bumper which is like 10 pounds less than the regular MOAB or whatever the model you have is named. I might just decide to go ahead and get it.

    Thanks a lot 4x4!
    Black or Blue both go pretty good with silver. Depends. What rims? What color are they?
    No problem man, I always hate it when a product I'm interested in doesn't have a review or any feedback from anyone. Thats why I try to help out where I can with info and pictures. CBI's Dakar bumper looks pretty mean! Go for it! :jellydance:

    The War Pig is looking GOOD! Keep up the good work on it! Btw, how are you liking the Icon's? I've been looking into buying their stage 4 (The 7 is a bit out of my price range:rolleyes:) and want some first hand opinion on the quality of ride, on and offroad?:confused: Thanks:D

    I love them so far. Set to factory settings they ride great offroad and on. The only issue I had was with rubbing, but that was a tire and wheel size issue. The ICONS soak up everything. I just readjusted the preload which added 1" more to the front and the ride is a little stiffer than before which I'm not thrilled about but ALL rubbing is gone. Hopefully the tougher trails will help it settle in today. The CDC Valves are money! There is like 10 different settings from S(1) - H (10). IMO...S feels great on straightaways, 10 will give you a headache. Higher settings allow for better turning with limited body roll, lower will soak shit up but lessen the handling response. If I had to do it over again I'd drop the AAL and go with Dakar's, but everything else I'm satisfied with. Stage 4 was what I was originally gonna go with but...
