    I have never been to H/Mc but as soon as you get a ride and make the trip it'd be sweet to roll together! It's about 7 hours from me as far as I recall.
    As far as the camo durability: mine has a couple small chips and they will flake if hit REALLY hard with a pressure washer. I'll just take a bottle of touchup paint and go around the edges and they'll be fine.

    Almost makes me wonder if this was the bumper that was sitting at his house last year when I got mine....Looks damn good though. It is ashamed everything went down like it did with him. Kevin is a good dude, and did AMAZING work! With that said, this bumper is TITS!!!!:yay: As for the winch line...hit up Southeast Overland....damn good customer service!

    Sounds like a plan dude! I just mapquested it and i'm looking at about a 9 hr drive to H/Mc, and Rausch is 7 hrs away. Too bad I gotta drive around lake erie to get anywhere. lol
    Good to know about the durability of the camo, I don't think that would really bother me much. Although I really really like the new SE matte black colour. Think that's with the '12+ tho.

    Now we're talking! Would be hard not to want to wheel my truck while i'm there tho. :D

    Ya know I bet it is the same bumper you seen last year. Big complication with how that one turned out, so kevin had to start new again. He definitely did amazing work, i'll give him that. Kevin is a good dude, but the length of time it took, utterly horrible communication at times and still not completing it fully really left me wondering. Everyone goes through questionable times in their lives so i'm not going to hold it against him, i'm just glad it all worked out in the end. I really learned a few lessons with this exchange tho.

    All that being said, I freakin love this bumper and with a little bit more work, i'll get it on soon enough. :D

    I looked at one of the flat black ones. It's a paint and flakes like none other when it gets scratched from what I hear. You must be really close to the border! I'm ~2 hours from Erie

    Congrats on the bumper delivery Mike! Sorry I couldn't hold out for your all-pro.

    Glad to hear Bailey's ok.

    Might see you at Drumbo tomorrow if you're going to the m&g.

    That's really disappointing to hear about the black paint flaking! Scratches I can deal with, but flaking would really annoy me. It would be really cool to match the truck tho. :D
    I'm about the same distance from the border as you too! I'm 2 hrs from Buffalo or Detroit give or take.



    Thanks Steve! No worries about the bumper, I think the one you got looks much better anyways! Baileys doing great now. I'll probably bring him snow wheelin with us.

    Speaking of m&g, JackTRD and I both made it out this time. I got to see his kick ass dually fog light setup. These things are bright!

    Jack also hooked me up with some brown paracord and showed me how to wrap my handles. Thanks Jack! Think it looks cool but wondering if the brown goes with the grey interior well? What do you think?

    Sorry I missed that meet - completely forgot about it.....

    The handle wrap is a great idea - brown :notsure:

    Your door pads look a lot cleaner than mine. Today, Nancy pointed out some Minden mud that I haven't gotten around to yet. At least I cleaned it off the dash...
