    Ohhhhh I misunderstood.

    Yea for the triangles I simply caked on some epoxy around the lip and bent the grill mesh into the epoxy. It was straight jerry rigged but it worked so well it was difficult getting the mesh out later

    Oh okay, yeah i've seen that method. I'm pretty sure that when i reattach the grill surround it'll cover up the holes/zip ties & have no problem going back on if I go that route.

    I've pulled smaller stuff. For something that heavy I would definitely want trailer brakes, especially around there

    10hr day of work and I get home to find my bumper sitting outside the garage. Installed it and done!

    For 248 dollars this thing is super nice! 331 shipped from Amazon.
