Just bolt it on, it was like that on the other truck and looked pretty good, so it'll look better on my truck :D

All you need is a welder and body filler. I had pics of the install but I cant friggen find em now. Anyways, you just do a lot of small tack welds up and down the gap switching from side to side so it doesnt get too hot and burn a hole. once all of it's welded, you grind it smooth, and then do a lot of layers of body filler "molding" it, to where you can no longer see where it was welded in. it's a little xtra work but it looks hella better IMO here is mine

Got mine on too! I have to say this is my favorite mod at the moment! I need to see about fabbing up brackets to make the hitch work with the body lift.

See another thing is I have a hitch on mine so a bolt on would be the most convenient if I needed to get to it

Yeah, I never used my hitch so I took it off and sold it, but if you plan on using yours a lot, they have a sweet one called a hidden hitch and it goes in behind your license plate! Pretty neat!
