    Very Nice. Looks Awesome, but then....we've come to expect that. :D

    Dude, you need a real camera. That cell phone camera just doesn't do that great bumper justice.

    I also referred one guy at the shop to you Tim. Apparently the bumper got a lot of compliments at his shop...one guy asked him if he had insurance, so he wouldn't mind if it disappeared overnight...lol.

    Yeah, I'll take better pictures of it and post them when the weather isn't as crappy. My iPhone camera sucks...and the fact that it was in my wet pocket the whole time I was installing the bumper

    Looks like a little different fog light hole. Is that 5"? What is the smaller hole for to the outside? Turn signal?

    ^^ Just out of curiosity, why did you go with an LED turn signal and not do the wiring mod?

    Is the general consensus that everyone uses the 510's on this bumper? What beam pattern do people use (regular, SMR, or ATP)?

    probably a dumb question, but stock 2nd gen fogs will fit in there right? I'm looking to get a set of those to put in the fog holes.

    I really like the idea of keeping the turn signals in the bumper. I can cut the wiring off the old turn signal and have new one wired a lot quicker than having to drill out corner lights and then hoping they stay sealed afterwards. I always wanted a shrockworks bumper they run a little turn signal in bumper too. I went with PIAA 510 fogs because of the yellow beam. It helps a lot in Colorado with fog and snow. Best price I found on those were here. Personal preference more than anything. Driving lights will be IPF 968 with 100 watt bulbs. I like to be a little different :)

    Sounds like a good set-up, man! :D

    You're mounting the driving lights in the center light hoop I presume?

    the 2nd gen fogs wont fit in the bumper, the mounting is completly different than any aftermarket light. they'll fit in the hole if you want to hand make some sort of mounting but the mounting supplied with the bumper wont work with the stock fogs

    I went with the SMR white fogs. I had the plasma ions before and they were OK but wanted to try out this newer design reflector. Very happy with the results. Plus they complement my PIAA extreme white halogen headlights very well. The SMR reflector has an excellent light pattern and the color temperatures match. :D

    I didn't think the SMR reflector design was any different than the standard 510, except that the lens was clear?

    I may go that route. I have four 9" 55W HIDs Tim's going to put mount holes for on the top of my bumper when I order it, but I still like the look of fogs. Plus, my '95.5 headlights suck, and I can drive with the fogs on at night on the street. The HIDs are far too bright for street driving.
