    I wasn’t going after the free shipping that he offered after some of us purchased the bumper.

    Mike ran a special where he offered free shipping, but he also adjusted the cost of the bumper, but it appeared that the folks who got in on the free shipping side, paid a little less.

    I was referring to the shipping options offered. There was business delivery, residential delivery and mike told me about a third, cheaper option, to pick it up at the shipping hub. I was told to choose business delivery and later it would reflect the third cheaper option but it never did.

    No worries.

    Yup, my bumper is stuck due to weather. Hasn’t moved in 5 days.

    oh well my light bar is back ordered too

    I believe that once he added the free shipping, that some of the additional discounts on the bumper were removed. Either way the free shipping was such a huge discount, im happy with the whole GB. I could have saved myself a couple bucks if I added the powder coating when i purchased online...Oh Well. Still significantly cheaper then having any local shop fab me a custom bumper....Probably should have ordered a second one, to have on hand when I smack a deer one of these nights.

    My bumper is finally headed my way.

    shows on a trailer headed to Los Angeles! I also got a call from the freight company to schedule a delivery day/time.

    it will be in my hands Thursday!

    just need my 30” light bar from Baja designs. I’m 3 weeks into a quoted 5 week delay

    hopefully soon my friend!

    my bumper just arrived in Los Angeles, a short drive to the office in Orange. I set up delivery for Thursday, my first day off. Pics will be up as she arrives.

    I do have another call into @RESZfab regarding our additional discount. I’m trying my best you guys!

    that’s the plan! Got my “custom” sequoia top half painted and clear last weekend.

    the only thing that would hold me up seeing how the 30” light bar mounts. My light bar is on back order a couple weeks. So depending on how difficult the light bar will be to install after the bumper install I might wait. It will kill me though

    The fogs look like they would be somewhat easy to get to after installing the bumper...but that light bar looks like a nightmare. Even simple adjustments to angle after being installed look tough.

    Im suprised that DB has a 5 week BO on that light. Must have been a damn good year for them.

    yeah I had the same initial thoughts I will see on Thursday.

    it must be a mfg thing with the light bar. I ordered some small parts Sunday and they shipped Monday so it’s not a shipping/staffing issue.

    I was quoted 5 weeks and ordered 2/1/21

    that’s my home made projects, I am spray can wizard lol.That’s dulpicolor and 2k clear. Has some orange peel but I can live with it.

    I have been snapping pics of my bumper project for a while now and will create a thread.

    In a nutshell. I took measurements of a oem tundra two piece, compared to to a one piece sequoia bumper and found it was the same measurement at the sequoia body line. Cut it off. Left with a semi rough edge. Prepped, painted and cleared. Used a rubber trim edge to clean up the cut edge

    So I am excited that my bumper is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow.

    I will post pics as it arrives and unwrapped.

    I am still waiting on a call/email from mike @RESZfab about our credit. I’m really trying to follow up for us guys.

    Im also hoping you guys get yours shipped too! They are working and posting on IG so it should be soon!

    My bumper didn’t show up!

    shows out for delivery.
    They gave me a 12-6pm window. It’s now 7pm, office is closed. Not sure if they deliver late on the same night or just reschedule delivery ugh...

    Last mile LTL is almost always inconsistent. I have to deal with them for work and dread it.

    Are they delivering to a business or residential?

    First impressions!

    It looks And feels solid. Probably weighs 75-80 pounds with my bicep scale. Lines are straight and corners are clean.

    Our first suspicions were correct. It will be damn near impossible to install the light bar with the bumper already on the truck. The s2 mounting locations have a plate on the bottom with a hole drilled so it will utilize the Baja designs bracket.

    so sadly, I’m going to wait until I have my 30” light bar in hand. I’m day 25 into the 5-7 week lead time I was quoted.

    Here they are.

    Finish look awesome. Hope your bar shows up quick. How thick are the spacers?
