    Man I've been thinking the same thing! I've been looking at all the pics I can find but I don't know exactly what mine will end up like. Gonna do my own hoops on the front since I couldn't decide what style I want and gonna do a custom swing away on the HC Rear. Still tryin to decide on designs. Can't wait to get them, been itchin for a mod project.

    Now I'm interested to see those mods as well. I can't wait to see how the custom cut outs for my bumper turn out.

    Yeah man i like the design on your cutouts. I stuck with Billy's standard design. I like that it is different than the other guys out there. Seems like every day I switch between a three hoop design and a single hoop design for the front bumper! I will probably bend up both and fit up and see what I like in person, then weld and powder coat. Think I've just about landed on the swing away design, wifey and I were throwing a few ideas around earlier tonight. That's right she's helpin' me design mods for the yota ;)

    Sounds like shes a hell of a catch. My girl told me to get a new bumper when I told her mine would be done if I nail a deer, so I ordered two. As far as tire carriers go, I like the bed mounted ones that hinge up and lock into the side rails to allow use of the bed but sit at a 45 degree angle when down. Just my two cents.

    That's awesome. Love not having to justify the truck spending to the wife! I like those carriers as well. If I weren't going with an aftermarket bumper I may have made one like that. Although access would be tough when my bed rack and RTT are on in the summer. The rack is fairly low and manhandling the tire under it would suck.

    Can wait to see pics of your ride when the bumpers are done man.

    Totally getting this bumper when I get my truck after deployment! Rogue took the words right out of my mouth with the hoop and TRD design!

    All I can say is, "Initial Success, or Total Failure "

    Just ask Billy for the Rogue Custom Front when you get back, he should be able to hook you up.

    Yeah, that would be kind of a pain. If you fab up a tire gate Id be interested to see it. And I cant wait to see it off the truck, let alone mounted.

    Yeah, from everything I've heard here, it's going away. At least officially.

    Why do all of the best things to add to our trucks always take so much longer? I'm anxious to get these on.
