    This guy, zzchipter, is a fool. A complete buffoon and you only need to read the thread he created here to see why. This guy certainly isn't right about anything. Eric is a top notch fabricator, and a hell of a guy, he's also a stand up dude, and not someone who lies or deceives as zzchipster would leave you believing. All the evidence is laid out in that thread he started and then never bothered to respond back to.

    I'd love to give my impressions of you but that kinda shit don't fly on this site, unfortunately.

    As a friend of Eric, and a customer and having seen your bumper and heard all the story first hand... nothing you say could be farther from the truth. Period. Also as proved in your hit and run bash thread that you never responded to again. You're a hack and they need to ban your ass.

    In this case, the customer got what he requested and then changed his mind. Can't fault the fabricator for that.

    Read the thread if you have a few moments.

    It's a gorgeous bumper, which explains why the zzchipster went ahead and installed it even after his very public rant about how horrible it was.

    Super. That sucks, but not really that much of a difference. Couple bucks a tank.

    You can do it yourself. It took me about 2 hours to take off the stock exhaust and installing the flowmaster. Just make sure you lay out the peaces first so you have an idea of how and where it will go. Good luck

    Added a few things before my trip to the FJ Summit.
    cb with a 4' firestik antenna.
    Yakima basket on Yakima crossbars that are bolted to the stock adjustable tie downs. Mounted my custom shovel/axe mount, hi-lift, and light to the load warrior basket.
    Modified my FJ skid plate to fit. Which came out perfect.

    Had wheels stolen off my truck a few weeks ago, finally got the insurance check and since I never really loved the TRD Sport wheels I decided to have the dealer order me up the TRD Rock Warrior wheels instead. Just picked them up last night. I like 'em :D
