Need your opinion: is this a jacked cab mount chop?

    I paid ORW good money to do this. My tire is still rubbing the driver side pretty good where the chopped cab mount kicks out at the end.

    Is this a normal CMC? I'm thinking it shouldn't kick out at the end like that. You can see the rub marks. I feel like it should just round off and not kick out like that.

    Out of the maybe 50 CMC's I've seen, this is probably the worst. He didn't even trim back the end of the cab mount which is where most people rub.

    It looks like they just chewed out the middle. You can still see the rounded end.

    Looks like trash. I’d go somewhere else and get an insane fab chop or relocate to fix that monstrosity

    That's exactly the opposite of the way that should go. It's supposed to taper backward. Not forward. And, not curved. (or, very little). But, completely the OPPOSITE way. Who did this???
    The one good thing is... It looks salvageable. Probably should come out no different than it should have, in the first place. Doesn't really look like they took off much material.

    This is a reputable offroad shop in San Diego area. I got it done at Offroad Warehouse in Temecula. I've had good work done there before, so I had no reason to believe they would have phoned it in, but here we are. I'll take it back and see what they say now that I've seen good examples.

    ???? No, it's the fact that my tires still rub after pushing my LCAs all the way forward because the large rounded part of the cab mount is still there ??? I DGAF how it looks.

    I’m sorry man. I would have done better for a bottle of whiskey. After drinking it. Hit up some locals to help you out. And definitely get your money back. That is pure trash, my chimpanzee welds better than that
