    Due to people having interest in how this turns out..I have made a little topic that I will post pictures in. As far as I know..apart from a few production pics on another truck, no one seems to have a Billy's hybrid on a 2012+.

    This bumper will have a custom cutout with a 20" LED light bar. Should have it in sometime next week, me hopes!

    So...I will pass out the popcorn!!

    It comes with some primer on it, I put some additional self etching primer then a few coats of rustoleum bedliner. Then let it sit for a few days. If you don't give it time to fully cure, it can come off easily.
