http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/uploads/side_bumper.jpgfinally, after hours of trial and error and a little grinding/cutting, the front bumper is on. still some minor tweaks to go, but I am 95%. Out with the beer can in with the muscle. Also need to order my PIAA light kits. Now all that is left is the 35" tires ! No trimming here http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif

Looks good. What did you end up doing on paint?

thanks Jeli. You cannot tell from the pictures ( bumper is now adjusted and straight) but it is color matched to the truck. I will take another picture tomorrow in the light. I took it to one of the GM dealers locally and they did not charge much at all, less than some independent shops. Really opened up the fender wells and did not make the front end droop more than 1/4" if that).

Another bonus is now in a pinch you can drive through a concrete wall if you had to escape from a parking garage in the event of a fire. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Wacko.gif
