    Pictures!!!!

    First off thanks to Steve J!!!!! He is the one who loaned me the bumper, and then drove up to my shop for test fitting.

    Ok so here they are, I hope you like them. I was working on them today and burned the crap out of my right palm, so I may be out of the shop a day or two until it doesn't hurt so bad. None the less, should have these at the powder coater by the end of the week so that I can start shipping by hopefully next Monday (30 July). Still got some some more and I am ordering parts next week for more, so I have more than just the ten. Let me know if you want one.

    Also just so people know. I will only be offering the Mid Height one now. For those that have already got the tall or low version, you will still get what you ordered, but the mid height seems to be the most popular, and it's hard to make them one at a time. I will offer the low version ones over the next couple days, but once everything goes to powder coat, that will be it. So if you want a low one, let me know ASAP!!

    Again I hope you enjoy!!!

    It may look that way, but it's adjustable up and down 1/2" either side. I actually noticed it too after taking the pictures and adjusted the mount when I took the pictures of the mid height. I'll post pictures of the mount for you to see.

    They all come powder coated black semi gloss texture. It is like an orange peel texture. It is very strong, and helps prevent scratches (or you just can't see them, haha).

    This I will post pictures of them coated off the truck, but on the truck I am relying on the TW family for help. I can't ask Steve J to come back to my shop again, it's a 1.5 hour drive for him one way...

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Chris,

    Your fab work is top shelf & the 2012 light bars look fanastic. All the best to you.

    So would I be able to mount a set of Light Force 240 Blitz lights or just Hella and KC slim styles?

    Hey Chris, just found it on here. They look great. Also really glad I could help. Let me know after you get them coated & I will see what I can do about getting out there or maybe you swing by with the bumper when you are down in my area & we could get some pics of the final product mounted.

    Are you going to be offering up the wrap arounds again?

    Sorry for the late response, it's been busy for me. They are designed to fit the slim style lights. I will get you a measurement of the spacing so you can find lights that will fit.

    I just sent out three today. Hopefully those guys will post up some pictures once they get them installed!!!!

    I still sell the bumper versions. I won't be doing anymore group buys for a while, but people can def order them individually!!!

    Thanks for the good word, can't wait to see the pictures!!!

    Gotta say that I was a bit skeptical about the krinkle powder coat, but damn, it's perfect. :bowdown:

    Guys, don't drag your heels anymore, place that order beacause,
    Chris, I've got an idea for another project if you're up to it :gossip: :D

    Great job and thanks again.
