    Nam, I'd be very cautious about finding someone on CL to weld a bumper up. Maybe I'm paranoid but CL doesn't seem like the place to find quality skilled work.

    thanks mike, i completely agree, i found a painter off CL, not very impressed at all, in fact, quite disappointed. For now, just seeing a ballpark figure first, then ill really think about it, kinda thinking bout the sos group buy too, it's like gambling, roughly 10% chance of it being free... not even sure i should be spending this kinda money to hurt my mpg. 2 weeks ago, i never woulda considered getting a front bumper, but now i got the bug

    :humble: Thanks. I was doing some more wiring tonight for the tag light and my ocd was kicking in big time. The wires were alittle short so I pulled it all back out and rewired it 3 inches longer so I could have wiggle room. Lol.

    Thats what everyone keeps saying how amazing it looks. But there are some imperfections that are going to drive me nuts.

    Own worst critic

    Thanks Rick. That will be the only one I make. Major props to the guys that do the development of a new design bumper.

    I've considered replacing mine with a pelfry when/if I trim my flares for 35's. But it looks like LT & 35's may be years away. Got too much stuff lined up before then.
