    So is this a bad time to say I'm considering getting the rear bumper to replace my recently smashed stock bumper? For $500 shipped it seems to be the cheapest, and reading through the cliff notes people say it mounted pretty easily. Is there a wiring harness connection for the rear lights and tag lights, or do you have to run new ones?

    Review ....

    I have this installed on my truck for over 3 months now.

    I have to say, the ride is a lot rougher now. I have bistein 5100's in the front. The bumper dropped the front at least 1/4 - 1/2 inch. Gas mileage is about the same.
    I mainly installed this for looks and not for doing any actual off roading. Would I recommend it for non-offroading? NO .... stay with the factory or pay the premium price and get an aluminum bumper if you can afford it. I think the decrease in ride comfort out weights the look of the bumper.

    no they come prewired with flush mount LED and tag lights.
    Run a jumper to your reverse lights and its bright in reverse for sure.
    They sell a reciever for that bumper thats a simple bolt on

    Hmmmm...

    I'd really like to see a solid review on the Horse Head Mask. Will I have to modify it if I'm on 33's?

    This is a lie.

    Do you understand how they are they are even staying competitive with the US steel market?

    I can tell you it's NOT because of quality lol
