the curved style bars actually match the curve of the 6.7 bumper. would look killer with those...

Yeah I was gonna do those but opted not to. itll be ugly if the curve isn't just right

Got any pictures of how you mounted them?

Not really.. That pic of the bumper off is the best I got. It's essentially angle iron with one side extended. Mounts using the factory bumper bolt holes

Looks great, got a question, maybe I'm just seeing things, but is the passenger light got a gap at the top? It be on both sides, but I'm only seeing the gap on the passenger side...

There is an overhang of the hood causing a shadow. I have it on mine it's the design. If I'm seeing what you're seeing.

^^ exactly what he said. It is a tad more drastic on the passenger side I think so I'm gonna tweak it. Got some minor adjusting to do on the whole front really.

Bumper sits too low now with the lightbars

Oh ok, wasn't a big deal just wasn't sure wat I was looking at...

Waiting on wheels... Need something else to do to the truck... Can't think of anything lol, any ideas?

Is this your daily driver? I will say this, and a positive note, you aren't afraid to do work and get your hands dirty!

it was before it went down for what supposed to be a simple front end conversion and that's all lol. now i drive my f150

and no, i'm not big on letting shops and stuff work on my truck if it's something i'm capable of doing. nor do i have that kinda money anyway, thanks for the compliment :rockon:

I've really enjoyed keeping up with your build through Instagram. I can not wait to see it with the wheels you decide to go with.

Love seeing people go different routes with their trucks, originality seems to be a fading trait these days and I applaud those who dare to be different. :thumbup:

hahaha, nah the pinch weld will be black again like it was before

Josh@DirtyDiesels · Nov 4, 2014

Black will look good too. No covers? They are stupid easy to make

earv_g0tti · Nov 4, 2014

nah, i prefer to hide the pinch. when i was into putting things on the ground i'd just cut it off haha. so instead i just do black to hide it. never heard of a cover tho

Wow, awesome build, looks amazing! If you don't mind me asking, what color powdercoat is that purple?
The purple and the body color look surprisingly great together. Defiantly something I haven't seen before :thumbup:
