    If you look inside the side of the bumper you will see a brace. I cut up to that brace to keep it in tact. But yeah you really don't need to weld on the plate, grind it down, and paint it. Just leave it open. It looks fine.

    Bright as F***. Hurts the eyes looking at the beam it projects. I would like to compare with yours sometime.

    Come on down if you are bored. Pretty sure I am installing an ARB bumper this weekend, maybe some bumps, swinging a BFH with Bob, and if I am lucky I will get my HID conversion done in my 8" rounds.

    Could I come down and trim my flares?

    Then I could just get some directions from you and finish off the rest of the metal cutting on my own.

    Garage will be full or do you just want to trim the plastic parts? That we can probably get done for sure.

    Sorry, yes. I meant trim the plastic flares and then later on I will be able to cut the metal if I get some advice from you on how to do the rest

    Family and friends!! Look up the mechanic kit, 1200 lumens batteries and charger for 58 bucks. Since I pay cash and pick up he hooks it up with a discount too!! He rocks!
