dang that is pretty good!

but I've already paid a little extra to have Scotty weld light tabs onto the bumper for me during fabrication

plenty to come

I also just got in new H4 conversion lights, which I'll be installing along with upgrading the wiring harness at the same time, and there will probably be plenty of pics of it as well

no sir not yet

I pre-ordered the bumper from AOR before they ever went into full production, so the bumper isn't even made yet

I do have a mock-up / photchop pic though

ohh, soo this really is an anticipation thread more than anything...

I like the way the photoshopped pic looks... The only reservations I have about getting a front bumper with a stinger on it is that I don't think my truck is big enough..

Even with 31" AT's my truck is relatively low to the ground compared to others. I hail from Jacksonville, FL and am currently in Auburn AL... the majority of offroading I do is riding through the woods and mud pits.

Maybe I am just thinking a stinger is overkill for me... you know what i mean?
