heres the rear bumper.. still unsure bout the look. of course the license plate will be recessed further inside the opening there. it will be painted black when complete. i was thinking about cutting the lower rear quarter panels down on an angle towards the rear tires from the ends of the bumper.

Finally someone else!!!!! Looks good man.




Yea cut that departure angle in the bed. gives the truck such a mean tall stance. plus if you ever get in a bind in a ditch you wont ruin your body.
