Take a picture of your brackets when you put that bumper on if you can. I still don't think Iv seen a picture of it, and I'm curious.

its real easy to do all i did was drill new holes and slide the mounting bracket up like an inch

I didnt realize you could just modify the bracket on the bumper, I thought you had to do it to the mounts on the truck. That makes it a hell of a lot better

 

[lowlife08]

ya man its easy

 

[Colton]

Yea it's even harder to find one around here

I've been looking for one but they're mostly all bolt overs. I want a cut out but all I can find on eBay are black mesh cutouts. But even those don't look bad.

i didnt even notice the ones i posted were a bolt over i jus figured it was the cut out ones for some reason.. do the bolt over ones stick out of the grill?

Black mesh cutout, similar to max's mesh, would be tits

No it doesn't stick out but you can sometimes see the factory mesh behind it and looks boo boo.
The cut out is cleaner.
If I can find a grill/bumper combo I'd go with the black mesh I just think it'll be hard to find.
I can powder any billet grill black.

 

[BOO5TED]

Definitely just get a regular cut out and powder it black. :imo:

 

[CUB]

A regular billet style you mean?

 

[BOO5TED]

Yep.
