    thanks...it's a great improvement over the stock one for sure

    still room for improvement on the design being the first one of the style for my buddy, but i can't wait to beat the piss outta it :cool:

    it's mounted up, but was night time when we finalized the install..

    i'll be touching it up after work tonight so i'll have pics to share in a few hours

    Ben and Chad are pretty much local to me. I just don't see the fun in driving across country non-stop. The cost is also way to high for me and my budget. That's allot of dough that could be better spent on hookers and blow locally :D

    I thought about it 2 years ago, but lost my job and never thought about it since finding a new one. I'd rather fly out to CO or BC and ski in the winter for a vacation.

    Fat guys don't like hot places :)

    haha, my thoughts exactly. I've scraped the same spot on my rear bumper going through the same trail a few times. Time to figure out if I can make it through without the love tap!
