Washed it yesterday and took a 2hr drive to Philly to see the Wolfe Tones play at the FOP Lodge. It was warm enough yesterday that I accumulated some bugs on the windshield during the drive on the turnpike.

I just walked out from Home Depot and it looked pretty good sitting there in the parking lot so I snapped a photo real quick. 164,000 miles on the odometer and still running strong.

Started my reverse level... lowered the Bilstein 5100s down the lowest setting the other day. Installed spare rear springs with 1 cut coil today.

Bilstein 5100 fronts at 1.8 - Factory Rear Springs w/ AirLift bags 5psi

Current: Bilstein 5100s at 0 - 1 coil cut from top of spare springs w/ AirLift bags barely inflated

Not much of a difference... but the front is lower, for sure. I think I need to cut another coil, will drive it a week before I decide.
Yeah let the springs settle in a bit before you cut more lol

Install was a little bit of a pain but make sure to use ALOT of alcohol to strip the bumper of any wax . Might wanna do it in nice 60 and above weather

This is EXACTLY the sort of thing im looking for. I bought my truck used and the previous owner spilled a battery in the bed of the truck. It etched the hell out of my bumper. A new one costs $500+, and to even get this one painted costs $400. Im worried about ordering the Silver color because its not a true color match to my lower two-tone paint... but the Bright White is color matched to my upper paint.... This post really has me thinking... :favorites13:


Are the seams goofy looking? Is it a nice tight fit with the factory bumper? Would you buy these again if given a 're-do' ?
The seams are clean and it's def a nice fit on the stock chrome bumper

I need the rear bumper... and I can have mine painted for cheaper than that... If you have a Silver rear bumper for less than $400 you got a deal! :D

I've been looking at these. Wish I could find a picture of the silver actually installed. Need to see how well it matches the OEM paint.
I would try calling them . Their very nice and helpful
