wheaton79chris Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 If we really wanna call it that. Picked up the kit and was disappointed with the quality. So I started cutting and attempting new things (none worked according to plan). And this is where we're at.[br][br][br][br][br][br]Probably gonna just slap it together in the next couple of days and stick it on the shelf as done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sledsel Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 trim the bumper sides. A lot of guys did that for tire clearance in the event of a collision. They also did tube bumpers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think to trim the bumper till it was attached. I do have a tube bumper made for the rear. Like I said a lot of stuff I've tried for the first time so pretty much trial and error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should have tried vinyl? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
