    Not looking forward to painting my flares, so they will probably stay gray for a while

    I waited ruffly a year before I took action on mine. If you have the time and resources to do it now, then I wouldn't hesitate. Procrastinating will just make it worse.

    Don't have the time for it now. I'm getting ready to leave for college very soon and have mandatory MX to get done on the truck (that I'm not happy about)

    Well in that case I guess you got to have priorities. I have about a month until I start college so I guess if you're leaving earlier then I would focus with what is at hand.

    Could always build something that looks like it. Future project maybe?

    Thought about it, but I would most likely just buy a bumper. Especially if it will have a tire and gas carrier. That might be getting a little too complex for my skills. I will eventually build the rest of my skid plates though.

    I'd love a relentless rear but may go with a bruteforce once he makes them :spy:

    Might be able to talk Eric at Relentless into building you a custom swingout. He does a great job with swingouts and if you request something he's bound to do it.

    I'd be interested in seeing what BruteForce makes. I'd probably say with my Relentless in the long run.

    Talked to him yesterday said he had a guy come in last week and worked on it. He said it'll be like a month or so I think till he has pictures of it done.

    Good to know... I'll be sure to check it out when he's finished.

    Yea... Relentless w/ custom swingout seems like the way to go since it doesn't cost much and you have your options on what you would want to add on.

    I've got a bunch of other mods that I will need to do before it is time for a rear bumper though. It is pretty dinged up and bent right now anyway, so I don't care if I drag it on rocks
