Very nice job my friend.

I may have to stop making "Alabama jokes" now.

Did you find you have more clearance than the stock bumper?

Sadly the overall clearance hasnt changed but my approach angle basically doubled! And your "Alabama Jokes" are always welcomed considering half the people in this state that I know think that their big ole truck on some 38's are the best and the only thing my car is good for is to get grocerys! The other half have already seen my car go through worse then they could imagine their trucks doing!

Not right now, there's not much protection, I still have to find a way to address that problem
