    I gotta check that out then cause the Demello front is what I really want.
    Have you seen the front bumper they got for 1st Gens? Saw it yesterday and it's really nice.

    They used to make it. Not currently anymore but there is a GB right now and if there is enough people they will do a short production run again... I think they already have almost enough people

    Yeah there's a potential GB for the 1st gen Demello bumpers that they stopped production of awhile back (due to low demand). I think if they get 20-30 people committed they'll make a batch, I looked into it but it's way too steep for me right now at $800-$1000 for a front bumper. Kinda wanted to go tube style anyway to cut down on weight. They do look rad though

    Definitely would prefer a tube bumper on the front, keep the front light and the rear heavy since I'm RWD

    Not sure, actually now that I think about it, isn't the potential GB for the aluminum version?

    Yeah its moving fast and I have a lot planned. As with everyones build cash flow is the limiting factor. I have spent WAY more then I thought I would in the past few months.

    I hear ya, same thing happened to me these last few months. Well....summer was all about spending money on mods and the last couple of months have been repairs lol. Definitely the most expensive hobby I've gotten involved in by far. I do love it though, can't put a price on getting outside to the places our trucks take us. Makes being stuck in an office all week worth it

    Looks slick. This is the only plate bumper I've seen that looks good on the first gen. Have you been to the Demello shop? Cool shop they have over there. Stoked for you to be getting a prinsu and now possibly a front bumper. Hopeful to wheel with you sooner than later. Stoked for snow wheeling. Sleding in the back country far from crowd is awesome. And being pulled on sled by a truck is thrilling, too. Ha!

    Both construction guys and one of them was thrown outta here. Assuming the guy that won was removed. Chris the building engineer was telling me about it.
