    Bumper showed up today. Went straight home after work to get it installed. Didn’t have enough time to install the winch since it requires moving some lines out of the way. Really love the quality craftsmanship the guys at Demello put into this bumper. Highly recommend @demello to anybody else looking for a bumper for their GX. Can’t say thank you enough to Erick @state48overland for hooking me up with a great deal and giving me updates throughout the whole process. So thanks Erick! He has everything you would need for your vehicle and he is the first guy I call whenever I need aftermarket parts.

    Also really loving the KC G4 Amber foglights. They should do great in all the snow we get up here in Montana.

    Huge thanks as well to Jake @jdpatchin for helping me install the bumper today. Couldn’t have done it without his help. I don’t know if he had more fun drinking beer and installing a bumper or blowing bubbles with my daughter.

    You did real good CW! Thank you for the kinds words man. Really grateful to be part of the process. I didn’t think you would waste a minute once that bumper came in. I’m really impressed with those KC fogs. The cut off line is impressive.

    Nice. I’m installing Friday/Saturday. How hard was it to remove the stock crap?

    Easy to remove the stock stuff. Soak the bumper support beam nuts in penetrating oil now. Those were on there pretty good.

    I think it needs a single row 30” light bar that sits on top of the bumper to fill the gap.
