    I'll see what I can do as far as a group buy request if the bumper turns out to be as great as I hope. With my experience they seem real easy to talk to and definitely open to requests.

    UPDATE: Bumper is installed, however all my pics are currently at night since that's when I installed it. Will look at getting pics on tomorrow so you can see in the daylight. Very pleased with the new look and once the fog lights are wired up it'll look very clean. This bumper actually weighs way less than I anticipated (never picked the thing up until tonight to mount it). I'd say it weighs just slightly more than the factory bumper and plastic cosmetic "bumper." All in all, it's the exact look I was going for and appears it will serve the operational purpose well (as far as the clearance and slant angle I was hoping for).

    Pics of the bumper.

    I do have a wiring question from someone though: After having 1 of these lights installed (directly wired to the factory fog light wires) it worked great, however once I had both wired up, they turned on and immediately went out. I looked at the fuse, saw it was blown and replaced the 15a fuse with a 20. Tried turning the lights on again and still no lights. What are your guy's thoughts on possible solutions??? Any help is much appreciated. Hope you like the pics! Im very satisfied.

    (Nevermind the scratched off paint on the emblems, I've been gone for 9 months and my wife didn't seem to keep the truck up to my standards haha)

    They look nice, but in all honesty you can get someone to fab up a bumper similar to those for about $500

    I noticed yours has a little different layout than the one on the site.

    Yea, its different due to the fact I didnt have a light bar or anything for the center part. That area would be open to modify for your needs I imagine (depending on what set up youre running up front).
