Did you just take your spoiler off entirely and leave the metal bumper piece? Whatever it is, I like!

those recovery points are actually the reason we went off road that day... the louisiana off roaders association requires front and rear recovery points, and since a new bumper was out of my budget and i work at a fab shop i just welded some up.... click here to see some more pictures of how i did it and some more of the test runs that day... but yeah its just my stock bumper, the end caps got ripped off on trail rides and the headlight washer and the corner lights....


i'm not bashful off road...

It looks great, especially covered in a nice thick coat of mud

I like the recovery points a lot! I just yanked off my spoiler too, need to fire up the welder and figure out something similar.

I like the skinny tire look too, but it depends on what you wheel on. In the south, it's mud, so we need the flotation provided by wider tires. I'd assume that the skinny tires would give better traction for rock crawling like those poor folks out west have to do in those beautiful panoramic mountain vistas.....

you can run skinny tires in mud too, and a lot of people will run pretty wide ones on rock crawlin rigs to give them a larger footprint, i think it comes down to personal preference as much as anything...

Yeah every mod we do is based on function and then personal preference. Some do mods just for looks.

I am a bit disappointed. I was hoping for more than 3 members posting pics...

Does no one like me?
