NYC - did you happen to get my PM?
It is required that you have to cut off the factory frame horns to allow the much stronger AOR subframe to bolt up. Once you get it on and check for fitment you will be able to decide how much you want to trim your fender liners and inner front fenders. I would do all that by marking with the bumper on and then pulling it for the extra room to work before the final install.
So just to clarify for myself and anyone else who might be wondering, an angle grinder would be sufficent for all trimming require?
Also I'm guessing relocating the windshield washer bottle is required, or at least doing so will look a lot cleaner.
Yeah an angle grinder will suffice. I didn't relocate mine, i painted it and everything else behind the bumper black and think it looks good. I'm not going to waste effort on it unless it becomes an issue off road in the rocks. Until then I have zero plans of messing with it.

You can make it out here but just barely since its shot from down low.

[MENTION=17736]AddictedOffroad[/MENTION] - just to be clear, do we have until July 13 to put a deposit down? I'm still trying to convince the wife that it is a necessary "safety" piece of equipment.
Deposit sent. :bounce:
I don't know about the trimming, but I talked to Scotty about winches, and these were the two that he told me would definitely work.

Oy Vey... I love the group buy, just wish it was a little later/ longer.
This is my bumper of choice, just not ready to convince the wife I deserve it lol.
I guess I have a few weeks... I'm a definite maybe for the GB.
Should we contact AOR directly for shipping quote?
I'm in the DFW area.
Thanks AOR for agreeing to doing a GB. You have a great looking product.

OK - I'm in !!
Who do I send the deposit to? Scotty said to just order online, but it asks for the full retail price+shipping up front?
