Your thoughts like mine....build one $50 hmmm lol:think:
Does look nice, if I had the money I would get one, but also I don't do that much engine work to justify it either.
Trust me, me being lifted, working on anything under my hood requires a step ladder or sitting on the Rad support. It's a REAL PAIN IN THE ASS. I do need to finally get one.

How'd you tackle it? I know there's those thick push in tabs behind it.
Yep that's what I did. I climbed up underneath and used pliers to squeeze the tab and reached out and pulled on the cap as I squeezed the tabs. Ended up breaking one but doesn't really matter when they put one every 3 inches

Finished the bumper

Well not completely finished just need to spray the clear coat. No I didn't spray it outside I just moved it out so I could take a picture with my truck in it. I'll post the finish product in a few hours when I'm done and the clear coat is dry. Should I do a write up for the process or does everyone kinda know already what to do?

Bought a few items off my Tahoe Stuff Amazon list: 2 Timken Wheel hubs, 2 Moog UCA's and 2 Moog lower ball joints. Hubs and BJ's will be here tomorrow but the UCA's won't arrive until Wednesday. Guess I'll put them in next weekend.

Less than 4 months ago, I replaced rotors/pads at all corners. When I saw that I'd be right in there to do ball joints/arms, decided to get the hubs too. No sense pulling that stuff a third time! Should have done it all at once when I did the brakes.

Now the only thing in that front end that won't have been replaced will be the gearbox, which I apparently need too. Maybe later...

Quick question. How far in do the cross bars go on the esky rack all the way to the front? Like how far are they spaced apart?
