    What dealership is this? The cheapest Ive found has been Camelback Toyota. $71 would be by far the cheapest Ive ever heard for OEM LBJ'S. Are you sure they are giving you the price for OEM?

    Mounted 4 of my rock lights today. I was unsure of how they would turn out but I'm pretty impressed! Pretty excited to get the other 16 mounted now!

    I did the same thing to my front and rear bumpers. Has held up great overall, but somebody stepped on my rear bumper and kind of dragged his shoe on it getting off, and the dip started to peel off in that area. Other than that, very pleased

    I sure hope so! I think I'll do the pinch weld mod early tomorrow and hope to get them installed later in the day. I'll post pics regardless... of course :rolleyes:



    Yeah, once it starts peeling in a spot it's pretty much game over unless you shoot it again and hope it doesn't peel... never will look as good if you have to go back and touch up though.

    My rear bumper has been going solid since May.

    Yeah definitely doesn't look as good touched up. You can still see the spot where it peeled... I'm thinking of getting some sort of rubber or plastic step for it like the rest of the bumper has

    Made a 1/8" thick IFS skid with additional steering rack coverage for a customer. It weighs about 42 lbs (18 lbs less than 3/16") so it's a good replacement for guys who don't wheel hard and want to save a few lbs. It's still pretty strong too.
