    Got my bumper installed yesterday! Doesn't line up perfect but looks good over all. It has about 3/16 more of a gap on the passenger side. Definitely gonna keep an eye out for a good deal on a winch now and some 4" driving or spot lights.

    Was going to make my own skids but looked on All Pro this morning and they had free shipping going on so I said screw it and ordered the IFS and transmission skids.

    I also have a black grill and black vinyl decals on the way to hopefully get my truck looking good. Get that chrome crap out of here.

    You can see the gap a little better here(can also see some Taco lean, I need to get a spacer soon to level the truck):IMG_6304.jpg

    Looks Gouda! Can you add some washers to make up for the gap?

    You mean to lower the driver side?

    I guess, not familiar with the mounting points of the bumper, basically get it level.

    Yeah the only way to level it at this point would be to use washers on the bottom bolts of the frame rail. I'm not sure if it bugs me that much yet lol maybe I'll do that when I put a winch in.

    IMG_6324.jpg Grill is on. Paint matching the emblem to Lunar Mist right now. Grill feels a little cheaper than I was hoping. Might paint my OEM grill now that it's off and return it after.

    Did the corner blinker mod today. So I can use the blinker holes in my apex bumper for something else. Was pretty simple, took about 45 mins. One side the blinker bulb hits the lens, so I'll see if I can find some different bulbs. Overall happy with it. IMG_6339.jpgIMG_6341.jpg

    Got out to some OHV trails off hwy 80. Think it was called Verdi peak, it was all pretty easy stuff but definitely had a good time.
