    Looks sick... like how well the sides match up to the body too. I've seen some with pretty big gaps.

    His bumpers sit outside the body so there is not much visible gap. Other styles need a gap or they will contact the fenders as the frame flexes.

    Send eddy a pm tell him what you are looking for so he can get you taken care of. He worked with me. Kept me up to date on the build and followed up with the shipping. I got a bed rack from him too. Was a good experience.

    Who has light pods in front of their windshield? How do you like them there? I'm debating on doing this mod. I have a 20" in the grill and about to mount a 30" on the roof. Thoughts on if this will be too much?

    Yea? Do you think having a 20" in the grill then a 30" in on the roof plus that will be too much?
