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

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!

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:

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:
