If you put it on your grille or mirrors it looks good but when it's right next to the paint you can tell it's not the same. My a pillars look good most of the time but you can tell it's not exact. I'd get the small sheet to try then see how you like it. Pretty sure it's as close as you can get to our paint in a wrap without going custom.

I gotcha. I've never gone the offroad bumper route. Looked into it several times, just never prioritized it.

I can't get the picture to download but if you go back a few pages in my build thread you'll see the before and after of the pillars. Look at where they match up to the top of the door, that's where you can see the difference.

It hasnt ever been a priority for me either. but here i am!

The bumper came in today, i didnt waste any time. I Had it on the truck and adjusted in about ten minutes, i couldn't ask for a more perfect fit. I do recommend this bumper in regards to fitment and ease of installation. I dropped the bumper at the hitch, disconnected the old bumper from the hitch, and bolted it up to the truck! I gave the tailgate to the body tech today... Everything should be fixed and painted by the end of next week. Hopefully by then the tailgate molding and front bumper bracket will be here. The tailgate molding is on backorder, and its holding up the whole show I just want to be back to normal.....

Looks pretty good on there! The more I see aftermarket bumpers the more I want one. My right rear painted part is pretty beat up from rocks and slightly off from the exhaust heat. At some point I'll need to replace it or paint it.

this bumper really wasn't bad.... only 500 bucks and I think it looks really good!

That bumper looks great!

Thank you! I really like it.

Body work is done on the tailgate and we sent it over to paint. Below is the tailgate in primer. He found a few other dings that he took out for me also.



All the finishing parts/brackets for the front bumper came in today... Tasca sent me the wrong color top pad for my tailgate... i need black they sent me brown like off of a kingranch, so that will go back and I will order the black one from the shop's vendor. It will cost me more money in the long run, but I can have it tomorrow. I just want it back to normal at this point.
