My bump, my bump

Thanks to [MENTION=46106]YOLO[/MENTION] for the masking and Monstaliner* tips around the "body lines" everything lined up and fit perfect.
Thanks to [MENTION=65614]Antman[/MENTION] for the sensor placement and oreintation, I got the sensor holes super tight and used a jewelers file to make the no spin knotch and then siliconed(aluminum flavor) around the back side so they would stay put.
Monstaliner* seems to be a great product, but I could have done 2 or 3 bumpers with the gallon I bought, and if your lookin to party..... Apply this stuff indoors with some friends, it's odor is VERY STRONG!!
I like the new body lines and look(14' bumper on a 10') now I can turn the exhaust out the side with more clearance than the early gen kaboose!

*pronounced in Aussie accent for S&G

Didn't want to put screws in my new lower valence for the license plate so I made some brackets to mount my plate a little lower.

Worked on my RCI sliders yesterday. Cleaned them up with simply green and a fine sanding block, 2 cans of self etching primer, and 4 cans of dark grey rustoleum hammered paint. Letting them dry this week before I mount them. If they start to chip and look bad I'll get them powdered coated.

Rustoleum bed liner in spray can works really well and hasn't chipped yet. The various hammered finishes have all chipped off with minor gravel road driving.
 
upgraded the audio system

Finished up a new audio system with custom sub box and painted trim pieces. Details in my build thread.

Nice! I've got the same Scosche install kit and have been figuring out what to do to make it fit the TEP metal flake black. I was going to take it to a body shop to see if they could match it but the matte black looks good.
 
Started the storage box build... found out quickly why pre drilling holes is important and I shouldn't be lazy. [emoji17]

Went and played in some rain washes over the weekend. I've been slacking on posts and mods lately but I also installed a 32" light bar.
Was feeling festive and wrapped the roof rack with led Christmas lights.
