    Thank you!
    I will checkout the page.
    West Covina is far. But if no other offers I will PM you some time next week to see your available time.
    Did you need the bumper ? Because I will not need it when I am done.

    My place of work allowed me to us their parking lot this weekend near my place. So I am good!

    Bumper have not yet arrived but I came outside and removed all the plastic that will need to be removed to unbolt the front bumper. Saving time. Ready for it.Next thing is to fish a wire through the fire wall. For the led bar.

    so UPS driver was full of crap. Got sms saying they attempted.

    UPS SMS said no one was there to receive.

    After talking to Support folks they did note that I have account with UPS and they have my access code and a note to leave front door and my phone number.

    No truck even drove down my street. Got a message saying they will try again on Monday.

    Called them on their own BS.
    They even said some one from LA Center would call me back. Never happened. Yet when I call their head quarters they said that indeed some one tried to call me. LMAO.

    UPS why are you so full of crap. Just be honest and say we could not do it cause driver was tired and did not want to carry 100lbs up to 3rd floor. (Got elevator) but its ok.

    This bumper has just arrived and I opened a the box. Ok lets start with how clean the lines are on this bumper. Pictures don justice compared to in person. Amazing design. I have not even installed it yet.
    Also so much is included for the price. Wires, Lights, Instructions. Awesome work RC folks. This bumper also is heavy and will knock down things in front of you. But I would not put a scratch on this awesome powder coat.

    If not an extra hand, at least two floor jacks would help!

    over all I added rear snugtop camper shell top. I feel it compressed my rear suspension a bit. Folks often ask me if I am on level kit. But no all OEM for suspension.
    With front adding another 100+lbs I wonder if it will change the characteristics of how the vehicle drives and is it too much weight for these vehicles on the nose.

    I’ve added quite a bit on my Tundra; Decked, bed rack, skids and sliders. I feel it drives better for some reason...

    Found a dent in the bumper. Looks like manufacturing. Sent email to Rough Country. I have to say their customer support needs a bit of work in courtesy.
    Good product. But folks responding to email or live chat are a bit short on words or willingness to support thus far. We shall see.
