Oh! This is what you meant when you said you had tried to contact me, before sending me the email. Sorry, I wasn't on here between the 8:44PM post and the 1AM email.

I do normally ship them because not many people are local, but Yes, if you are local, semi-local, or just passing through, as long as it's an evening for a short install, or a weekend for most installs, I do install them at my house.

Just a side note. He gets really good steal. I found it to torch and weld smoother and cleaner than almost anything else I've worked with. :safari:

Yep. It costs a little more, but I get "pickled and oiled" steel, which has the mill scale acid etched off, so it is much cleaner to weld.

Hey your bumpers are sick! I would like to order a set once I'm out of the hospital. Question can you fab the factory fog lights into the bumpers? I've been looking through the forums and I haven't seen were anyone has asked.

FYI, you're probably looking at a wait time of about 1 year...

Why would you want the factory fogs? They put out a completely useless beam pattern.

No. Factory fogs are not only a really weird shape and profile, but they suck, and there's no reason to use them. You can hook aftermarket lights to your fog light wires, though, if you want.

The next thread down from this one in the same forum: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=5176

I tried to edit this post to remove pricing for finished bumpers, but it won't let me edit it without messing up several of the pictures. Something about not liking the dimensions of the pictures.
