Bumper is done, swingout not quite yet.
Primed and painted:
notice my new body damage that Im not too happy about
even though it looks like it, it really doesnt hang down too far. It was 17 inches from the ground to the bottom of my old hitch receiver. Now its 22.5 inches from the ground to the bottom of the bumper. Tire carrier swingout should be done later this week

My god that is so sexy, dude. You need to add 2 jerry can holders on the side, and relocate that CB antenna to the bumper now! Use the CB mount you have as a flag mount for Pismo!

Yep, if it wasnt for that stupid mount I probably would have had no damage. Im gonna do my best to get it out but so far Ive had no luck. There is actually a puncture into the body, so I'm sure it leaks. I'm gonna try to bondo it after I fix the main dent. I guess I gotta start expecting stuff like this if I'm gonna wheel it, cant be in mint condition forever.

What coils do you have in there right now? Your sig says Toytec, but which ones..
Again I'm impressed with the amount of time and work you put towards that thing. Do you do all of your work up at home? I was home last weekend...that place wont stop getting snow!

EDIT: If you look in this picture, see the back quarter panel? basically do that, but without the bars that go up to the top.

This snow is insane, I am so burned out by it. Supposedly its supposed to get back into the 70's next week so thats a good thing!
After you fix it, you should make a half cage that goes from your rear bumper to your sliders. It looks sweet, and protects the panels nicely. I plan on doing it, ill get you some pictures for ya.
