    This makes more sense now that I actually slowed down to read it haha. I agree it'll make the bumper go to a different level

    This here is why your company is amazing.

    Thanks for listening to input!

    haha yea..hard to describe.. But i think will help its appearance..so long as the integrity of the bumper isn't compromised.

    Tried the angles Monte, it looks out of place. I did it rough on one side real quick, didnt like it. Mike agreed. Sorry

    In for bumper options. I was going to order a CBI rear eventually but options are nice

    Are you just saying angle it so the fog cutouts point outward (i.e. towards the roadsides) rather than having them straight? If that's the case, I think it'd be a little more aesthetically pleasing.

    If it doesn't work I guess:

    The wings i would think would be angled back a bit progressively.

    Ah, I think I got ya. I think the biggest difference is the Pelfrey concept incorporates an additional bend/face to the wing - pretty much where your fogs are. Unless I'm just reading the sketch wrong entirely.

    exactly.

    Probably why it doesn't work! haha and looks strange that way.

    The way it is now is still stellar. I have no complaints. Just figured it would be worth a shot to try.

    But you're right, due to the two wing design, it doesn't work

    Same! Just by the rendering I think it'll be second best looking in my book. Right behind the Elite and ahead of the Relentless.

    Side note: Think its awesome that Pelfry is doing bumpers for these older trucks. Not many companies would do that!

    Plus getting direct feed back during the process and actually listening and talking to the end users....NEVER get that. Super cool :cool:

    And why would Pelfrey want to mimic Elite and not make it their own?



    Hopefully they don't copy his terrible ethics and business practices either...
