Welcome

You obviously have above average talent.

I wish I could convince my wife that "her GW" would look better in a Rhino Grill.

Welcome!

Yes ,I painted and did everything else myself,w/the help of a buddy who helped w/the sanding and buffing.I used to own a Custom car and truck shop for 8 years.

Thanks. It's Summit brand base clear.The bumper is gonna look kinda like the road armor bumpers ,but w/the winch sitting a little higher.Not sure about the upper tubing yet.I think I'm gonna have it nitroplated so it will be close to the same shade as the stock bumper.The center console will have burgandy vinyl sides w/an aluminum top cup holders front and rear ,cell phone holder/charge station,800 watt power inverter ,12 volt power,and dvd player in the rear.and a slide out drawer in the side for my handgun.Yes I do have a carry permit.Just need a lockable easy to get to place to keep it ,besides my glove compartment.Plus I like the spring loaded pop out gun drawers you see in the movies.I'll post some pics when I'm done.
