    Not today, but finally got photos of it today... Got a Bulletproof Fabricating skid plate, I love it... Totally changes the front end of the Sport.

    Nice! Couple questions....

    1. Does the OEM tow hook work with this skid?
    2. What hook do you have on your passenger side? Mine is OEM and on driver side.
    3. How was install? One man job? How many bolts?
    4. Any drilling?

    Thanks man, looks great!

    1. The OEM tow hook works, it's just smaller. You'll have one on each side, there's a bolt on one on the passenger side. Both are easy to reach through the gaps in the plate.

    2. The hook I have now is also from Bulletproof Fabricating.

    3. The install is super quick and easy, definitely a one man (or woman, if you're me ;)) job, and only 4 bolts. The rear bolts are the same as the stock tin skid plate, the front are the same mounting bolts as the stock one, but with provided longer bolts with spacers.

    Today I built a wooden frame out of treated 2x4s to keep my bed weight sand bags in place. The frame is wedged in front and behind the wheel wells and held down with straps. Simply strapping the bags against the wheel wells wasn't doing it. Now the bags won't slide around on the cold composite bed and will stay in place over the rear axel, improving my 2WD traction on these slick winter roads.

    @blens,

    I forgot to ask... Do you know if current lead time? It's not on his website. Also, is he offering Black Friday sales?

    Thanks again!

    Ugh, no clue. I don't think they're made to order though, so pretty quick I imagine. And no clue on the Black Friday sales, good idea though, maybe I can get my lift for a good deal if they are. Email them maybe?

    Looks 100 times better without the front air dam and added skid!

    Yea, I'll hit them up. I saw your truck on their website... so I figured you were possibly a part of their shop or close. Thanks anyways! I'll report back what I find out.

    Agreed! As soon as I saw it, It was an easy decision...
