    I was contemplating the Sdhq too but I like the low profile looks combined with a low profile cost of the one I went with

    Well....were we currently reside is right next to a mountain. He may have to point the beams straight up and call it a Hail Mary.

    Right in the center with the roof that has two skylights, is ours. As you can see, it is like a wall out our backyard.

    These guys like hanging out at the fence line. This is the small one out of three in the area.

    Nice! "You have deer."

    Maybe all your neighbors can turn off their lights, and you can climb onto that higher undeveloped bit. You know, to see Mark's lights. Probably worth some effort.

    Yeah, but the lack of power is a bummer for today and I’m not sure how to get my skid plate back on. I had to remove it to get the mounts on and am hoping @boardude can give me an idea how he made his work. I can probably do it but it’s freakin cold and I’m not willing to go fight it anymore today

    Hey buuuuudy! I have to remove the grille in order to reach the bumper skid. There is an aluminum cross member support in front of the radiator that you can remove to get your whole arm in and tighten the nuts from behind. Pain in the ass but small price for a BA bumper light setup!

    Let me know if you still need help and I can take some pics for you.

    @boardude guided me to a bright and inexpensive lightbar

    @RowdyRon advised me to review my work and I finally got the lights going

    Not only can I not hold a job (for stupid reasons) but the new one I’ve already blown away the other 30 sales reps and won Broncos tickets in my first month for sales success.....3rd job in a row I’ve outshined the rest of the competition out of the gates :D

    Too bad the Donkeys game will suck!

    I like that bumper, it is on my list. I’m too lazy to read right now, so if you don’t mind... Where are the inserts, do you think the parking sensors could mount in them? Does it work with the RCI skid plate? What do you think of the quality, fitment, etc.? Thanks, or tell me go read, regardless Thanks!

    I tossed the inserts. They look stupid IMO
    You could probably figure out away to mount the sensors
    RCI skids fit perfectly with it. I have them
    Quality is great: lightweight, solid structure, and fits very snug with very little gaps

    Overrall A+

    It was a tight fit and I had to drill new holes for the mounts, but I finally get it done. I tried about 4 different ways to mount it and finally went with the top setting on the mounts that came with the bumper
