OK. So this project has been being worked between busy times at my bodyshop. I'm finally down to the front bumper. I have a paint to match front bumper and a SS cover. The regular front bumper looks nice and clean but the SS cover looks good also. I think if I did the SS cover I would have to add flares to match the distance the cover sticks out on each side. Your opinions would be appreciated.

I like the second pic a lot more. Is there a way to cover up that gap though?

I like the SS bumper the best. Looks like it cleans it up a bit

Both look clean, but the SS cover just gives a meaner look I think. I'd go with the SS if it were mine.

Why such a Gap? I don't remember that when I did my Escy conversion.
What are your plans...Are you gonna drop her and put bigger rims? I'd say if you doing that...Roll em first them FF em!

There is a gap because the side filler is not installed yet and the bumper is not totally adjusted.

I do go offroad a bit since I mountain bike so I dont want it any lower. That is why it has Toyo All Terians on it. 20's are pleny for me. I am still looking into the fender flare option since the tires stick out so damn much in the front.

I like the SS, but you can sell me the smoothy....

Something has to go underneath the SS to hold it up. Where are you at? If you are close I can sure get you a deal on one. I own a body shop in Oregon and have no problem hooking forum members up who are close.
