Looks nice. I like the roof rack, didn't know n fab made one for the runner. Any pix of the rear. What rear bumper is that?
 
That nfab rack looks quite a bit different than the website. Is it that new or is it modified?
 
I'm not a fan of the roof rack. It doesn't look very useful. What is it made of and is it one of those bolt together racks?
 
So I really like how the Southern Offroad grill looks in this image but every time I see it implemented in real life I'm not happy with how it meshes against the section of cut out valence. Maybe it's just me but I prefer a cleaner and more flush setup. From certain angles you can tell that the front bumper was hacked and for 40K + that's a hard pill to swallow.

Perhaps it's the implementation and attention to detail that differentiates how clean these setups look.
 
Me likey. But looking at the front quarter I do see one hellofa lot of bolt/rivet heads: wheels, flares, grille inserts, even the led lights. Reminds me of my old erector sets.
 
How were the fender flares for install? Did you have to drill any sheet metal or just plastic fender wells. Very nice build!
 
The roof rack is NEW from N-Fab. See it on their InstaGram or their website. Uses the factory rails (I know my rendering does not show that). I will post pictures of the install once I get it.
Here are a few pictures of easier items I installed this last weekend.

Here are a few of my other builds. Plenty of attention to detail!

Roof Rack

That rack in the rendering looks very similar to the Proline 4WD Equipment Rack without the "PROLINE" badging on the rails. Here's the only N-FAB rack listed on their IG and website.
