    Where did you find that mesh grille? Been looking all over for one with the woven mesh and not a CNC cutout one to look like mesh for a decent price.

    Not a fan of TW build threads either, way too much work to maintain. AutoModList app is amazing. You can note down prices, dates, even the weight of the mod. Highly reccomend.
    I'll try and remember to get some pics from all angles of the bumper for you tomorrow.

    Sorry, it was on the truck when i got it, and my friend who sold me the truck couldn't find where he'd gotten it from. There definitely are mesh grille inserts out there though, just hard to find.

    So this is more of a talk about the parts you paid a shop to swap than a look what I cut, welded and painted build.
    Amirite?

    Unfortunately yes on the bigger stuff. I have neither the tools or the experience or the time to spend days figuring everything out for myself. Not how I'd prefer to do things but what can you do.

    Why do those 33's look like 35's on that truck? Maybe it's that beefy ass offset. Man, it looks great! That bumper is PERFECT! :thumbsup:

    Been slacking on this build thread for a while, got it updated finally. Truck has changed quite a bit since the last time I was on here.

    You’re right, but I can’t see myself putting the truck anywhere I’d need them so it’s hard to justify the purchase.
