Looks awesome man! Have you thought of extending the edges of the bumper to protect the bare corners. And yea, that will look great with the front bumper.

Not working for me, unless you clean up the under bed mess that is the spare tire and bumper/hitch steel.

You are trying to clean up the look, but exposing stuff that, in my opinion, was meant to be hidden.

Just sayin'
