Looks sweet. What'd a full plastidip job cost and how many gallons did you need?

Thanks man, it's fairly cheap since I did it myself. Ran around 500 for the first time since I needed to buy the compressor and gun. Each time after that its 200-300 for the paint. Plastidip is real easy to work with, so its pretty effortless. I highly recommend it since I don't need to worry about damage to the paint :jump:

I have a question about the addicted off-road bumper. Was the body lift needed? We're you having fitment issues? I'm hoping to order that bumper soon. I do want a body lift but was worried about too much gap. Yours looks good.

No the body lift was not needed, the bumper is great and offers great amount of clearance. Plus other than an aluminum bumper, I believe its the lightest front bumper available for our generation. I only did the body lift to gain some additional lift.

However. if you don't have a rear bumper, I would definitely suggest getting that first. Its more functional and you can throw your spare on the carrier. I'm currently running my spare on the roof, and although it looks cool, I can't get into any parking decks anymore. I would definitely get a rear bumper first if i could do it over again.

Thanks. I was thinking this bumper or the demello off-road one. I think they can accommodate different body lifts. What tire size are you running? If I got the demello I would ask them to leave out the DO logo. Not a fan.

I'm currently running 33x12.5R17 without spacers. Only rub slightly on my UCAs when off roading.
Demello was another option I was going to choose, but there was a group buy for AOR when it came out and i do like the fact that its not as bulky. The only complain is that they don't offer a modified bracket to accommodate body lifts. Anything past .5" will leave a pretty big gap.
