Yeah the ones under your headlights, they're supposed to be body color. They don't look bad or anything, I was just wondering.

Must have been replaced at somepoint...cant imagine why someone would paint them...might also be why it had a different bumper on when you bought it.....or when the previous owner ditched the stock bumper and the silver under the head light might have stuck out too much.

Nice looking bumper. Going to paint it up? Black?

I'm guessing they were replaced when the bumper was from the last owner. I'm going to paint with a slight texturized flat black paint.

That looks really good man, nice work. Is there a way to integrate some fogs in the bumper itself?

Just curious: that bumper, awesome looking as it is, must weigh a ton. How does that affect your handling? Or have you already upgraded your front suspension to compensate?

I could have cut out holes for the lights but decided not to because I don't really like the look of it. It also does weigh quite a bit but i have a 2 inch lift and I don't really notice anything right now with it, but I am going to be upgrading all the suspension soon.
