Pics of Trimmed Factory Front and Rear Bumpers
I would like to get some ideas for trimming the factory front bumper. Any extra clearance that doesn't break the bank would be useful to me.
Here are a few that I found around... Please add anyones that I have missed.
Center section gutted and trimmed.
Cut high above the factory fog lights.
These are trimmed right below the fog lights. I suppose you could do this without the additional skid.

Doubt it. I haven't seen anyone do this as of yet. I really like it, especially with the new tires. I should take some new ones so it's more accurate.
And thanks! :-)

Man I wish I had an early bumper the 06+ is just so much harder to trim and make look good.
