I pulled mine off even though I'm supposed to have a license plate in the front in my state. Its been two years and I haven't had any police officer complain yet. I even got pulled over for speeding once and the cop didn't notice. Until then, the plate stays off.

Here's a pic of my bull bar with the relocator kit installed. Sorry it isn't the best pic. We've had winter like conditions recently and i've been unable to get the truck clean. Let me know if you would like to see it in anyother angle.
man,that looks super nice. not what i was expecting. i think i am just gonna order me one this weekend. need to order my flairs or steps this weekend anyway so i can just add it to my order and wont have to pay any shipping. thnks for the quick reply and pic.

its the same around here weather wise too. i have been wanting to wax and buff my truck for a month now. no can do.lol. i got a new buffer for christmas this year and have been wanting to try it out.

i was thinking about the skid plate. not for sure yet. donnt know what color shock boots to get for sure either. my truck is silver. not going to get the black boots. want something a little more flashy.lol

did you get the 2 or 3 inch blocks? i am going to get the 3's.

did you do the install yourself? if so, any problems. i might have a buddy do it he has a lift in his garage. love that turn key stuff. he he.

Talon6, do your light actually project striaght? They look too big for where you put them and it would almost seem as if you had to angle them downwards to get them to mount properly so the bottom would rest up on the bar. They look a little pointed downward as well????

The lights right now are just installed for the looks. I haven't had a chance to connect all the wires. They are a little big and they do point downward a very little bit but I do like they way they look. I'd have to say they do look better in person than in picture.
