    I have a DV8 bumper. They sell them on ebay. There is a monster thread on them (I think its called cheap bumpers on ebay), and its a shit show. But here is a pic you can see it from the side.

    They may have gotten tired of people implying that the "KO" stood for "Knock Off" and came up with a brand name to use.

    I got a dv8 sticker with it *score!!!*. I tested the bumper pretty well on China Wall here in CO :frusty:. It held up great, despite my hard smash into the wall lol.

    I’ve smashed it pretty hard too

    It’s thick steel with good welds, no reason why it won’t hold up. Powder coat is nice too.

    I’m under 1k for front and rear bumpers.

    Well, I'm currently battling the seller via ebay messages.
    The hardware bag included with my order only had 7 screws in it, and the PDF instructions I see online shows it should have 14 (15 if you include the "Pivot Hinge Screw")

    My hardware bag:

    The PDF of instructions:
    http://puretacoma.com/docs/PT278-35140-install.pdf

    ...the seller is currently suggesting I'm only missing one bolt, and I can easily go pick it up from Home Depot for $0.67.

    Nothing wrong with that. People that have them say they are good kit. They are a copy of the All Pro, but apparently you are more likely to take delivery of the eBay version than the actual All Pro...

    3rd attempt at balancing the new tires. Trying a different shop this time, we'll see what they have to say. Thinking of balance beads if things continue to be difficult.
