FATBOYrs10 · 11-23-2011, 11:50 PM

really? no comments on the bumper/stinger?

jesseRS10comp · 11-24-2011, 01:28 AM

so clean and nice good job

FATBOYrs10 · 11-24-2011, 08:34 AM

here it is at a different angle...the other pic made it look overly tall i thought...but this is closer to how it actually looks in person, not bad u think?

my opinion...lay the stinger down more and look into some bent links. Integy usualy has them on Ebay for $7. Everything they make sucks, but they do make some decent/cheep links. That bumper looks good though. Damn near looks store bought. I'm just not a big fan of stingers.

Looks pretty good. I personally think the stinger would look better if it wasn't so tall. If it was closer to the height of the hood, or maybe a little taller than the hood it would look better. It's not often at all that you see a stinger almost as tall as the rear cage.

FATBOYrs10 · 11-28-2011, 09:00 PM

worked on the tubin a bit tonite, got the tubin for around the front fenders and some that will run diagonally just across the back door openings-we are going to fill the back door handle & lines to make it look more like an xtended cab instead of a 4 door- pics tomorrow

Macmanthizz · 11-28-2011, 10:24 PM
