    Thanks! I just pulled up my email and at the time, I could enter in the Coupon Code: ACCESS and it applied the 12%. You could email them at sales@mvpautoparts.com but I clicked on the link they sent and I tried it. The list price is now $364.65 but the code didnt' work for me just now, but it did come up sale priced at $320.

    Thanks man! A fellow mountain biker! I just beat my personal distance record of 23.7 wicked-brutal-technical leg burning miles Sat. I'm still recovering. :)

    Oh yea, I just updated page 1 with a bunch of higher quality pics with better lighting and more details.

    Ouch man! Once school gets out and summer hits in and that Taco is sitting in my driveway, I'm sure I'll be getting up there in trail mileage once again. :cool:

    Alls I can say is WOW! I really dig your ride man. It's the ideal Taco IMO.

    A couple questions for you . . . . How are you diggin' on those bumpers? Anything you wished you would have done different? Thanks!

    Oh my God, your truck is perfect! I'll never do do half of what you've done, but that's one of the best looking, functional builds I've seen on here. Great job!!!

    Wow, thanks man! I knew what I wanted in a set of bumpers and these delivered. I wanted the best features and looks of the All Pro, Shrock and ARB all combined into a perfect front bumper (for me), and the lower price was nice too. These bumpers are built for offroading so the answer is I'm really diggin' them! :D

    Other than the changes I originally requested, I would probably modify the design to use 3/4 shackle mounts. I have 7/8 mounts so my 3/4 shackles are loose. It's nothing that I can't fix with inserts, if I really wanted to, but that's 1 thing I'd change. I was also on the fence about asking for a stubby version of the rear bumper, as in a lot less (or no) stepping area behind the tailgate, solely for wheeling clearence. It would reduce the overall truck length by 3 or 4 inches shorter than original but I use the truck for a whole lot more than wheelin all year long, and I step on that rear bumper all the time so I'm happy with it as designed.

    Ever considered doing the BHLM? I think it'd look good on your already super slick looking rig! :headbang:

    Perfect (for me) would Solid Front Axle and 36's but thanks for the compliment! :D I am just so damn OCD about all these mods and I love to be original or take a different path or think outside of the box.

    I did do the clear corners headlight mod on my 05 and on silver, I liked it a lot. I spent a lot of time looking at silver trucks with the bhlm and I think now, with the bumper and grill, the bhlm might be next. I'll have to photoshop it now. :D
