Remember what you paid? How's it mounted? Any more pics of it? Thx
i payed $280 free shipping. also it mounts around the tow hooks at the lower point and mounts to the frame on the upper side as well. all the parts feel very well made no thin or flimsy metal.
(1st and 3rd pic show the lower mounts)

hope this helps.

Looks great. Hard to tell in the other pics, did the lower valance need to be cut for the mounts? Thx for the pics.

no it didnt have to be cut, you would have to remove the covers that go around the tow hooks thats all.

LMFAO that definitely was the unintended outcome of added it but i always wanted this style over the wing ones.

You hit a deer or something and that bracket is going to puncture your radiator.

I was thinking the same thing and i'm working on a idea to strengthen this point but in order for this to move i would think it would have to snap the 4 grade 12 lower bolts.

I got around to doing this finally. tinting the amber signals red. I also converted the turn signal to a dual input so now the stock brake and turn signals do park light/brake/turn signal. I think this gives it a better look and makes it closer to the newer year trucks that do this already.

Snow all left and the ground clear i thought i could get my bumper swap and new fogs installed butttttt... nature had other things in mind. luckily i got most of it done before it came down.
