2nd Gen RESZ fabrication group buy/discount thread! its live!

Update - Apparently dropped at powder coating this afternoon...hopefully shipping next week.

 

good to hear, fingers crossed

 

Looks like they have some bumpers getting shipped today from the picture they have on Instagram

 

Crossing my fingers for bigskytaco

 

Pretty sure it is...I was emailed the Pro tracking # today. Hopefully landing at our shop in ID next week. Probably another week or so to get home and install it. Got some ARK splash guards I need to install at the same time. Need to find a light bar as well...

Hopefully all coming together soon!

 

Well I’m glad another one of ours went out

 

How did you like that black series light bar?

 

What kinda time frame are you looking at for the PC?

 

I really like it. I don't use it very much right now just because it's always light out but when it is dark and I drive it makes it like daytime....

 

I run one of those rc light bars on my wife’s 4runner and I was pretty surprised with the build quality for the price, the wiring harnesses are very nice and straight forward and that drl feature is pretty slick as well

 

Thanks...gonna grab one, really like how the black looks on that bumper.

 

Apologies for the late response, dropping it off at PC today - Lead time is 1-2 weeks. Finally ordered my S2 Pros too haha.
Are you looking at an install this coming weekend?

 

Probably next week. Finishing a job up in WA. Gotta run by the shop in ID and grab the bumper. Should be delivered this afternoon. Headed home Saturday, then hopefully have it installed sometime next week. We got a big project approved a couple weeks ago, so that has had away from the house. Hopefully can get everything wired up and installed while im home...

 

Anyone else have their bumper shipped air freight? Mine when went through 3 airports and then final mile trucking...

 

Staying busy my friend, but congrats on the big project. Hopefully the bumper won’t require too much work considering the fitment issues. My local PC shop quoted me $300 for a gloss white finish haha.
Also do you live near a hub? Mine shipped air freight, but went straight from Ohio to Texas. Took about 4 days

 

Mime was driven my truck from Ohio to Michigan. I thought about driving there and picking it up myself but when it went to free shipping it made sense to just get it shipped to my house

 

Looking forward to seeing how your looks mounted up. That white is gonna look great. Kinda close, probably 100 miles from the airport. Had to ship it to the shop, so someone could unload it and sign for it. But it all worked out. Looking for ward to working on it next week when I get back home.

Yeah the free shipping definitely sold me. The black series landed at home this week. Hopefully no fitment issues...hoping to get it on before the forth and bedline the rear bumper, till I can get one ordered up.

 

I did have to drill out the mounting holes where the bar mounts to the bumper. They were just a bit too tight, my guess is from the powdercoat

 

Took some reorganizing...but got it loaded up. Hopefully have it on next week.

 

And the S2 mounts are off....guess its gonna be a longer project then i was planning for the day.

 

Looks like they never fixed the mounting placement.....

 

And i just realized the RC 30inch light bar I ordered doesnt fit...the regular non DRL would have fit perfectly. But was out of stock...so not thinking, i grabbed the one with DRL. Nope. .75" too long now.

 

Ughhhh! I had the one with DRL on order but it was on back order so I switched to the non drl.... that sucks man! Once the bumper is on you feel pretty happy about it but the process of getting it there is ridiculous...

 

Did everyones bumper have the mounting issue so far? What a pain..

 

i think they all did

 

Yup...modifying the brackets are just time consuming. Go to the hardware store and get the best dremel die grinder shank they have. Makes for easy work. Had to position them like @Jwood562 . But might mess a little with it this week.

I guess we will see if the frame supports will need to be modified as well....

Ordered up the correct light bar and hopefully back in stock tomorrow. Waiting for the return authorization for the other one.

 

Picked it up from PC today. What do yall think?
Will try and do the install this weekend if time allows.

 

Looks awesome. Looking forward to seeing it mounted up.

 

looks good.

 

Slowly but surely...waiting on a buddy to show up and see if the frame bolts lines up.
Got the S2 wiring done. Hopefully all buttoned up by tomorrow.
