Trim-lok is a popular brand on Amazon, but it's a bit more expensive than some off brands.

this is what i used. The metal tabs makes sure that the weatherstrip stays in place. It aint coming off unless you pull hard.

That stripping does pinch nicely...i used a small bead of gorilla glue along the channel as well.

has anyone figured out any type of bracket for use with other brands. im very happy with my WARN winch mount. the bull bar sticks out further, ive had to push cows before. its cheaper and the winch mount is flat where the SSO is angled and I guess that's kinda a difference but marginal. mainly I bought it for the WARN name. anyway I want these now. picture from after last offroad trip. plus im about to get wheel spacers.

So many different sizes. Did you use the 1/8" size?

the one you DONT want is 1/16. this one is the one i accidentally bought and have a ton of from amazon.
I ended up going to home depot and just eyeballed it.
I'm 100 percent sure its 7/16 on length (i just measured it off the truck), but I'm not sure what the edge size is. Definitely not 1/16th lol

Hey Brad, what sort of thing did you hit that struck your bumper in that way? Just curious how that all went down. Thanks, man.

For the cut I used an ocsillating tool with a blade for plastic. Harbor freight. I cut 1/8” below my taped line and then used 80 grit paper in an orbital palm sander to get to the edge. I finished it off with 220 grit to clean it up and then added rubber door edge guard from amazon.

Looks great. Was the tool something like this?
Any chance of seeing how your inner liner area came out?

Thats the tool. The blade i bought was the largest diameter semi circle shaped for plastic.
The liners were tough to cut just because of awkward access. I didnt pull the tires. I was able to bent the bumper bracket up and attach drivers side with a screw. The washer bottle on passenger side is visible but I am going to take care of that soon. Ill try and grab pics.

Diamond blades on a grinder work the best.

Did a quick high clearance mod/cut. I think I have to adjust the inner fender to make it a little tighter and cleaner.
Happy with the results. I basically taped the lower fender line, then cut at the bottom of the tape, to give it a little more depth.
