    That looks similar to the F150 “crash bar.” Helps with front/angle crashes. In the F150 it increased their safety rating. Made it difficult to mount 33” tires.

    I think that cut looks great on the OEM bumper but I’m still unsure about it using a slimline bumper. I’ve been debating both those things so not sure which one to do

    I like the viper cut but would be nervous to cut into my bumper.

    Lift, wheels, tires, sliders, and skidplates...so far.
    Would you mind posting pics of the thermoplastic sheets installed? Also, a link to what you bought would be helpful too.
