I just put on a new bumper yesterday from Addictive Desert Designs.

My mods include Airaid intake, 15% tint, Livernois 91v10 tune, Toyo AT2'S 35x12.5, Raptor Vtec wheels 17x9, ADD venom front bumper

What does everyone think? ?

Cool engine mods... Not sure about thread placement.

I can't think of anywhere else it would go. I have a 2012 so 2011+ seems fitting

...but your in the '2011+ Engines' subsection.

I've always liked the looks of the ADD bumpers. Are there more intake vents behind the front plate? The airflow looks much restrictive than stock, even with those vents on the skid area.

I'd move the plate to the angled skid area and suck it up every so often when the meter maids give you a ticket for front plate placement. I've had a undermount or no front plate for almost 30 years in Colorado. Police/State Patrol couldn't care less, just the damn parking meter patrol!

Yeah I've gotten a ticket from the meter maid one time on my old Explorer for no front plate. The airflow is actually pretty good. Inside that skid plate there are plates that route the airflow into the intercooler. The air comes thru the skid plate vents as well as the vents on the sides of the license plates. Just as good or better than stock flow

Got any more pics of your tires man? I really want to pickup some AT2 Extremes after my current tires wear out. They are lighter than the Toyo MTs but still look good.
