    :drool: Damn that bumper is sweet! Get some more pics on here man.

    How's the black powder coat look? Some powder coats are textured like sand paper, some are flat black, etc. Just wondered how my bumper will look when it comes. There are about 100 different types of "black".

    Can't wait for mine to arrive, maybe next month. :goingcrazy:

    thanks man! i've been super busy recently and haven't been able to take any more good pics. i really need to get out of the "urban jungle" and get some pics with a good background haha!

    yeah, i know what you mean about different colors of black. i got a "flat-black textured" powder coat. it's almost like sandpaper i guess. looks really good and, according to tim, is a lot more durable.

    It was mostly bolts specifically the bolts that held the passenger side hook on... Now I'm kicking myself for not just going back to fastenal to see if they had them
