    @JLee, when you come up for air—what's the cost for the camera relocation bracket (standalone) for those of us who already purchased the bumper? :D
    -----------------------------
    Why do folks want all this armor but non-HC (LC?). Is it aesthetics?

    I've stalked TW for years now, I know there are a lot of judgey folks out there. For the record, my question was (and always are) purely inquisitive. Are you also looking for a non-HC bumper or are you speculating? I can't tell because your answers were formed as questions haha. I fully agree, different strokes for different folks indeed. Also, does the non-HC imply no cutting? I thought the cutting was just necessary to have the side armor. Or maybe that's what makes it HC? Cuz doesn't BAMF have a non-wrap around bumper but it's still HC? So no cutting the fenders, but it's HC? IDK. I'm just a noob :D

    as far as i know, the "non-HC" bumpers are still higher clearance than stock, but generally they do not require cutting. so even though i have a non-HC bumper on now, i could always put my stock bumper back on as it's just sitting in my side yard.

    Ah, yea. I was super hesitant on this as well. I even sat on the bumper for about a month after it was delivered because I was debating if I wanted to add a body lift (yea yea, hiss boo, whatever). I knew that I couldn't add a body lift after cutting (well, I could, but it might/probably would look goofy with the n-inch gap). I decided against the body lift, since my ICON 3" was plenty. Just didn't want to deal with the hassle. I have enough projects on my plate already. But yea, the cutting... it's a little nerve wracking because I like the concept of being able to resell. I kept the tub sides I cut off, in what is probably an irrational fantasy that I could weld them back together and paint the tub again hahaha.

    :D :D haha. Yes, I think it's irrational. I'm not a hoarder, I swear.
    Also, are we kinda twins? Is your magnetic grey? I creeped your profile real quick but I don't see any build photos (I'm guilty of this too). What bumper do you have? (Am I off-topic? Should I take this somewhere else?)

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    If you already have the Dual Swing bumper the camera kit is no cost, (included with the bumper) And come up for air is an understatement but I'm getting there on all the bolt on bumper stuff.

    Oh i was basing off the previous question why other choose to not cut there bed sides, im suppose to get my high clearence bumper any day now so im lookin forward to choppin my truck a bit, and my guess other ppl dnt wanna chop there trucks and i figure high clearance was always chopping the lower bedsides and full wrap around

    I changed my mind and asked Jerry to include the swing out on the 2nd gen non high clearance I recently ordered and he said, not a problem. Gotta love the BAMF's customer service. Excited now.

    Haha, no doubt you're working very hard. I won't speak for everyone but I suspect most feel similarly—I really appreciate your quality product and customer attentiveness! Looking forward to the camera relocation kit, and the propane tank gear!

    Fellas with the tire carrier, is it angle slightly or flat 90 degrees? @JLee is there an option for that? I dig the slanted look.
