    going full weight! if you do this get the older 2nd gen bumper and modify it to work on the 2.5 front end. it looks better and doesnt sit stupid far out there.



    speaking of arb @gixxerphil oi did you finally get yours installed???

    From what I understand, you have to cut up your grill and do a bunch of fuckery to get the 2005-2011 version to fit on a 2012-15
