    I like mine too! No problems with reception with the exception of a little static inside a parking garage.

    I put LED turn signals in rear today. Looks clear now until the blinker comes on then amber. I dig it!

    Somebody said they did their bumpers in it. The 'after' pics he posted make the bumper look very nice. My front bumper is sort of faded gray with some scratches - so what is this stuff he used?

    Dip is great for little stuff. I am not a fan of doing entire cars, wheels etc. I like it for emblems, wells, worked great on the pinch, I did my garage rack, even did my push mower last year for that gangsta look. I have even applied dip, then a proper finish on top. Still rips off just the same.

    nothing cool
    mine look like that. i need to paint them. without me taking the extra 8 seconds to do a search do you remember the torque specs on those bed bolts?

    edit: took my longer than 8 seconds.. but 55ft lbs of torque for the bed bolts is what i found

    Received my All Pro bumper yesterday, spent all day priming and sanding it. Took forever but well worth it In the end after I got it on today; by myself I might add. Ready to hit the trails in a couple weeks and start kayaking at the lake this summer.

    3 coats of primer, 1 of self etching primer and 2 of automotive primer; topped off with bed liner spray. Looks amazing in person, only complaint was waiting 3 week from All Pro to get it and being lied to about when it would ship 2 seperate times.

    Installed my W1 oil catch can thanks to all the great info on this forum. Small piece of pre-drilled steel and 2 M8 bolts. I used 3/8 fuel line since I couldn't find any 7/16.
