    Honestly? Not a fan. They look incomplete and it just looks like you took the old ones off and put a couple of pipes back on. Doesn't flow.

    Agreed. I think the front just looks ugly, and like a high school welding student did a half ass finish on it. Not a fan of the rear either, but it definitely doesn't look as amateurish as the front does.

    But...as long as you like it that's all that matters, because it's your truck bud :thumbsup:

    found a guy who welds everything for pre runners: bumpers, engine/cab/bed cages, sliders, armor, light bars...basically everything. Found him on craigslist, but he's off now. Said he was looking for a job and found one. He was a certified welder and all weld are very impressive to say the least. sturdy as fuck.

    i paid 300 for the set. pretty crazy for the price.

    That man should be shot for what he did to your pristine 2012. The rear bumper is alright. But the front needs to be re done for sure. Definitely get some bigger tubing. and cut the stock cross brace to allow for a better skid plate angle. But make sure you gusset to compensate cutting that bar. You're on the right track!


    You asked what we thought. :eek:

    I really hope you kept your front and back bumpers. That just looks ridiculous. Unfortunately you paid $300 for the both...then again fortunately you only paid $300. Definitely redo the front end...

    Hey man, your truck - your look. I dont care for it personally. But props on standing by what you think looks good on YOUR truck. Many people on here might have started flaming those that commented to the negative.

    + Rep for you.
