Congratulations to you guys. I was anticipating the finished product and must say you've done an outstanding job. Very well executed.

Man that looks really nice. How are the turning lights working out running in the corners?

The turn signals need some work. They look good and are function. They all work right now, but because we used a smaller watt bulb they flash really fast, like when you have a bulb busted but they all work. We are going to get a larger style bulb and socket and see if that will stop it from being fast.

Got the turn signals fixed, found some higher watt wedge based bulbs at lowes. They are for landscape lights, but hey they work.

Crolison,
I sent you an email many months back asking about this bumper, to find out if you mind if another one is running around! My buddy and I have the outer frame in place, and we are getting ready to start placing in support braces and then tomorrow we will skin the whole thing and it will be done. I will shot you a picture when we are done. It's looking good so far! Thanks for the great photos to help us out along the way.
