    I ordered everything from TRS and I did the retrofit myself. It wasn't bad took longer than I expected but fairly easy to do there are a lot of good write ups and a couple youtube videos on how to do it.

    I really like the look of bushwacker or bushwacker reps (it doesn't matter). the fitment I'm assuming was decent?

    I was wondering how it would look like unpainted on the MGM. Looks good. Looks like that will be next on the list.

    Thanks man I love the look. Installation was a bit tricky. I know the bolts are for show only, but in the front, I was able to get all the holes, but one, lined up and bolted through the fender so they are mounted securely. I also trimmed a good chunk out of the fronts as you can probably tell from the second picture. I removed where the flares mount to fender liners and removed the fender liners. The rears, none of the holes but 2 on each side lined up. Still very secure and I am confident that it will be secure mounted to the fender liner.

    The cut off wasn't bad just some minor adjustments once I reinstalled the headlight. It was around 250 for the retrofit before I added demon eyes and halos and everything required for that put the total about 430. I could have just bought new projector headlights a little cheaper but didn't have the look I was going for or the halos/demons.

    I like the Stubby. It is sleek and looks really good. I mostly listen to pandora via bluetooth but from the little bit I have used it the reception is as good as the stock antenna. For $8 on Amazon I can not complain.
