    The alcohol seemed to pull a lot of crap off after sanding, so I think it will be ok. Just finished my second coat of flat black. Some of the spots on the bumper and swingout are a PITA to paint...oh well ;)

    Also just ordered a BajaRack, Bajarack Hi-Lift Mounts, Pelican 1700NF case, and an ARB synthetic safe snatch block for my birthday!

    So many goodies :drool:

    "Done"

    :laughing:

    That's a good one buddy...take a look at my future plans list in the OP...this thing is far from done...And even if I do all the things in my future plans list, I know I will still have other stuff I want to do to it...

    In other news, it's starting to kind of look like a bumper :woot:

    I was the same way...just like I said "Oh, I won't need the 886's, I'll never get a winch..." and then I always end up changing my mind...

    The lift and armor is put way on hold because i know i won't be wheeling all the time with it. Ideally i'd like to spend my 20s wheeling it and traveling the country but that is far fetched. I just want a mall crawler that will actually work and do work on them trails :D

    Gotcha :thumbsup:

    I don't get out wheeling much (obviously :eek:) but I'm building it so that it can take on as much as I can whenever I do...
