Specail thanks to Mike at Extreme Offroad for the group buy. I had to do a little modifying to accomodate my body lift, I trimmed a little off the bottom part of the brackets where it meets the bumper, and I was able to lengthen the slots on the bumper by just over an inch, left me with a gap of about 3/4" all around, doesn't look bad at all, especially considering I have a 2" body lift. I need to put some spacers under the PIAA's though, the grill on the lights hits the bumper before I can level them out.

 

Looks real good man! I'm still waiting for mine to arrive at the end of this month . It's alright coz I'll be out of town till Jul 2nd anyway. Our ship is going to Boston this week for some festivities. Anybody from Boston area?

I'm always a "day late and a dollar short" when it comes to these group buys..:pat:

Crap! All these bull bar posts are killin' me! :cry:

 

Looks good Bill!

I installed mine this past Saturday. I have a 1" body lift but didn't take the time to extend the slots. I wanted to see if I could get away without hacking things up. I think it looks fine. The gap looks to be the same as yours pictured above. Not too bad.
Awesome bumper though! I've gotten lots of compliments already and have seen some heads turn. I'll post pictures too when I get some time.

 

Ya, I'm in Boston.
where you going to be?

Sweet, very very sweet. After a bit of a wait, mine arrived this afternoon, had to run home to meet the delivery truck. I am patiently biding my time at work so I can get out of here and git it on'!

 

don't forget the camera dude.

 

We need pics!

 

Definitely going to have the digi cam on hand for photos!

 

Finally did my bumper on Sunday. I too have the 1" BL and I didn't want the gap so I slotted the mounts on the bumper and not the frame. I then realized that inorder to clear the frame mounts (as a few of you have described) I had to grind a slot on each side of the lower bumper to clear the mounts. I really like how it turned out and I have had a number of compliments.

EDIT: I'm trying to attach photos but my computer isn't being nice so when I can get them to work I will post

 

I talked to the shipping company today. They said mine should be here between 9 and 12. So it should be on by tomorrow evening if all goes like it should. dont worry i will post pics.

 

Todd, our ship will dock at Charleston Navy Yard behind the USS Constitution. We'll leave Florida tomorrow afternoon and get there by Friday morning. Hey, if you want to visit our ship just let me know. Our ship is USS BOONE FFG 28. We're also going to Gloucester on the 23 till 30th for the seafood festival. I'mm looking forward to these places since Iv'e always been stationed in the west coast.

Here ya go:




After looking at the pics I think I am going to extend the slots so I can raise the bumper up for a snug fit. Lights are on the way too.

Next mod is sliders because I got cocky this weekend driving through the woods and brushed my rear pass. door against a tree. No dents but some nice long scratches

Thanks again Mike, for doing the group buy

 

oh yeah.. what is everyone doing for a license plate bracket? I need one because the zip ties I'm using now don't look too cool.
