    I bought the ExpeditionOne Dual Swing Tundra bumper but it took a little longer to be ready than I hoped.

    Ended up picking it up on the way to Baja and installing it on the way down from Idaho. I needed a mount for a spare 35.

    The down side was it was raw metal. So I took it back off today and it’s going for a powder coat.

    By the time I put it back on again... I should be a pro at this.

    The real question is what lights should I put in it?

    It’s obviously not good but I kinda liked the Rusted look... gunna be weird to have it all blacked out.

    Well I haven’t the slightest on the lights, but that’s a hell of a nice bumper and honestly I like a touch of patina.

    Keep it like that. I believe there’s a rust stopper and then clear coat it

    I know this is an old thread, but these guys have the absolute worst customer service I have ever experienced, and quality control on accessories is not good. On my dual swing rear bumper that just arrived the lock pin holes do not line up and are off by more than 1/4", the water can mounts came with marred threads so cannot mount, and they delivered the bumper and then informed me some things they told me could be done in fact could not and weren't and I could just live with it and go away. They will email you, do not answer their phones, and tell you why, and I have the emails documenting this, this was my fault and I must be confused. They clearly are a low quality product from a service perspective and I wish ADD made a rear dual swing, because not only if my front bumper from them awesome, but their customer service when I had an issue to resolve was spectacular. If you are considering ordering from this company I would suggest you do not if you have any customer service issues, don't expect any decent service. And don't be shocked when the item comes wrong and they do not care. How unfortunate they are this bad. The bumper is a nice bumper, but the service just sucks. 4 days and they can't simply respond with a repair or resolution. And the VP Sarah does not return phone calls either.
