    I'd fill the bumper lights and close the gap on the bumper a bit to make it flow together... excuse my pis poor pic but I'd add metal here if you get my drift

    It would also look nice to keep the bumper lights and in rodeo valance run some fogs with some 3000k hids

    I agree with DionTDE I wouldnt add any more metal to the bumper. I think it would be faster and look better if you just fiberglass the areas you want to blend in. This way you can shape it anyway you want.

    The recovery is going well I like what I see

    He may run an air duct for his intake from the lower valance like he had before to feed his intake.

    Until it cracks in a few years.... metal can be shaped anyway u want :)


    It would look even better if you smoothed it allout like the rodeo bumper... or just use the rodeo bumper????

    I still think my idea would look sweet wish Nam was closer I'd do it for him just to see the end result

    I like that idea... I'd still close that gap up to make the valance right at home

    lol the outside is bottomed out as the r-comps take all the load and the inside is just almost touching the extension bump stop, the only thing keeping it together is that poor poor soft weak sway bar xD

    you should drop shocks plus relocate the battery to the bed.it might help with the weight transfer.and keep some more traction to the rear till you can get anti-sway bars for your truck!!!

    Care to say what LEDs you used and how you wired them?
