    Yeah, I graduated from WKU in 2010. Definitely a proud Alumnus and hilltopper for life.

    i chopped them straight vs at an angle because it looks more factory yet it creates an insane optical illusion and makes the truck look level when in fact it is leaning front to back and it makes it look like it has an extra 2 inches of lift

    the bumber is actually welded to the subeframe assembaly that was added to strengthen everything. It has an aluminum skid plate and looks like it has some decent strength to it. Just wish it had thicker tubing.

    You can kinda see the skid plate here, i'm going to extend the skid all the way up.

    I think it looks good with the upper stock valience there as if it were off it would look a little too bare and plus covers up some crap.

    i know it hard to see but the light bar already has two bars coming off it welded to the frame and i've outlined them. when i add a tube or two it'll be the two outside lines i've inserted.
